NATIVE TRANSLATOR ANCIENT STONE AS A TREASURE MAP

[oakster]

Is Oak Island’s treasure really on Birch Island?

First Nations translator deciphers ancient stone as a treasure map 

By Angie Zinck- Lunenburg Progress Enterprise – October 18, 2006
 WESTERN SHORE – You many have heard about the Da Vinci code, but the Ranville code could be what solves the longest running treasure hunt in recorded history.
 Keith Ranville, a First Nations man, has traveled from Winnipeg to Nova Scotia in hopes of unlocking the secret codes on Oak Island.  He says he has done so by re-translating one of the stones found on the island over 200 years ago.
 The was first found in 1803 by the Onslow Company.  Found 90 feet down the Money Pit, the stone was believed to be two feet long and 15 inches wide, weighing approximately 175 lb.
 Since that time, it has been said that the inscription on the stone read, “forty feet below two million pounds are buried,” as translated by James Leitchi, a professor of languages at Dalhousie University.  Some researchers have questioned this translation, as Mr. Leitchi was involved in a treasure hunting company trying to sell stocks.
 Today, the actual stone is lost.  It was used as a hearthstone in two homes on Oak Island, but it was moved to a Halifax store front where it went missing when the building was torn down.  Its last known location was around the Centennial Pool area.
 Mr. Ranville used pictures of the stone to decipher its series of shapes, lines and dots to reveal a new translation that reads more like a map.
 Ã¢â‚¬Å“I’ve brought some new stuff to the table,” he says, adding that the stone’s etchings could be used to figure out the mystery of Oak Island.
 By his translation, much of the digging in the Money Pit area has been a waste of time and money.
 Ã¢â‚¬Å“I believe the pit wasn’t meant to go beyond 100 feet,” he says.  “I believe it wasn’t meant to go beyond these symbols.”
 If one were to take Mr. Ranville’s code and follow it, it would lead you off Oak Island the site of all the treasure hunting for the past 211 years, under the water of the bay and onto the neighbouring Birch Island via man-made shafts.
 Ã¢â‚¬Å“The instructions at the bottom of the pit tell you about where and how to locate these shafts and I believe they’re in Mahone Bay,” he says.
 Mr. Ranville believes the two islands are connected by these shafts.  He said that aerial shots of Birch Island prove the island has been touched by human hands.  These aerial shots of the 16-acre Birch Island do show a large triangle which takes up a good portion of the island landscape.
 Ã¢â‚¬Å“What I want to do is investigate this island where I think these symbols lead to,” he says.
 Mr. Ranville has contacted the owner, Christopher Ondaatje, to inquire about doing some soil testing and exploring on the island.
 In addition to being the home of the famous treasure, Mr. Ranville believes Birch Island may also be an ancient burial site of those who were involved in the original treasure hiding scheme.
 Ã¢â‚¬Å“This is a significant Nova Scotia heritage discovery and that is Canada’s national treasure brought here for our guardianship long before Canada was established,” he says.  “We should respect the civilization that is responsible for the makings of these structures.
 Ã¢â‚¬Å“They were a very unique culture and may hold the secret to many ancient structures.”
 Although he doesn’t know who actually buried the treasure, Mr. Ranville believes Oak Island and Birch Island need to be protected from further change to unlock their true history.
 At the time of this interview, Mr. Ranville had yet to hear from Mr. Ondaatje regarding the island.  He says he will continue to research the island and its tales of mystery and treasure.  Check out Google Earth on the World Wide Web to see satellite photos of Birch Island and its triangle.

Yes Oakster, even in Australia we know of the Oak Island treasure stories.

Incidentally Oak and Oakster? Coincidence?

Most of the stories written tell of the enormous efforts in getting down the shaft to the treasure, which no-one has been able to do. This is supposedly because of the design of the shaft which allows water to constantly flood it.

But if this Ranville guy is right, it raises questions as to not only the location of this treasure, but who dug a tunnel between two islands and why?

All very mysterious.

Hi [user=220]crystalsun[/user]

Actually my name is Keith the researcher that did research in Mahone Bay



The Birch Island triangle is east of Oak Island, the triangle is co-related to the Oak Island stone triangle found south of the money pit that I recently ciphered. 

 

There was also triangle's shapes on the to be inscribed found money pit stone 

 

Thank you for responding from Australia [user=220]crystalsun[/user] hows is it down, down under vist my blog for more information.

Thanks for the Blog address Keith, I will have a good look at it tonight, my time.
From just a brief initial look it seems you share an interest with me in the Mayan civilization, although my knowledge does not extend to the depths that yours seems to on the subject.
Just looking here at photo of both Oak and Birch Islands, it looks a fair distance between them. Someone who built a tunnel between them would have to have fairly extensive engineering knowledge i should think.
Also between them is a tiny little island, can't help but wonder if the tunnel goes via this little plot of land?
Well I will check out the blog in full tonight. Thanks Oakster!

Neat, a real live treasure hunter on hyperspace cafe[size="4"]!




[/size]This is the first I have heard of Oak/Birch Island so I am a bit behind the times.  What an interesting mystery and your theories are fascinating.  Sir Philip Christopher Ondaatje has been knighted by the British government -- I'll bet he's the "Knight" that has been charged the responsibility of guarding the treasure.  I'll bet the treasure is moved from island to island using the shafts?  I think I read last night many people have died trying to get to the treasure.  I wish you a "safe" discovery of whatever is on those islands and I hope he contacts you.

Sir Philip Christopher Ondaatje sure does have a lot of money.  I wonder if he's hidden the answer to the treasure in one of his books.

Christopher Ondaatje is the owner of Birch Island and he is a Toronto Financier here in Canada, but he is well known around the world.  but research is still on going and it's amazing that this triangle theory has fascanating people connected to this research project of mine, the birch island triangle's right angle is the point of orgin of the triangle theory like what describes in the symbols on the money pit stone. the arrow to the right angle depiction symbols the rest read like engineering instructions? but its the stone triangle aswell that has merrit to this triangle theory  

    

The symbols are in controvercy but it's the symbol triangles that caught my eye and the oak island stone triangle that lead me to the location to the birch island triangle eventually with alot of logical incrypting  

Paragraphs from Canadawiki

  So what is at the bottom of the Oak Island mystery? Does it contain Spanish treasure, buried by Captain Kidd, or perhaps the Royal Crown Jewels of France (which went missing in 1791 and were said to have been smuggled to Louisburg), a Masonic "Secret Vault" containing the Holy Grail, the treasures of King Solomon's temple, Viking or Pirate booty, Inca treasure, payroll for colonial British soldiers, or even the secret writings of Francis Bacon.

A new theory has been suggested recently by researcher Keith Ranville, who believes that nearby Birch Island, owned by Toronto financier Christopher Ondaatje may be part of the mystery. The 16-acre island features a large triangle which takes up a good portion of the landscape.

Mid Summer 2005 First Nations Keith Ranville set out from his Vancouver home to investigate a at the time a Oak Island's diminishing interest. But a new begining emerged through Keith's traveling research studies a simple unencrypted solution was generated to resolve this elaborate now 213 year-old treasure mystery. The close examination of Oak Island clues proclaimed a interesting triangle theory' in-which was instrumental in locating the core to understanding and reviving the Oak Island treasure mystery.

Oak Island's neighboring Birch Island perceives a obvious impression of a large incise triangle' shaped into the earth' obscured from ground view. Google Satellite is the best way to view the Birch Island triangle. Cont....,  http://oakislandmoneypitblogspotcom.blogspot.com/
