Mycenae civilization began in the early bronze age around 2000 BC. In BC17th century, an Akayan branch of Greece built its first castle and palace in Mycenae. According to Homer's epic, Mycenae was a city rich in gold during its prosperity, and it was famous for its gold and silver products.
The existing Mycenae Castle is located on the top of the mountain between Zala Mountain and Elias Mountain, and its plane shape is roughly triangular. The city wall is built by huge stones around the mountain, 8 meters high and 5 meters thick. There is a magnificent gate in the northwest, and there is a triangular stone carving with two jumping lions on the lintel. These two lion sculptures are the oldest sculpture art in Europe. This symmetrical sculpture form is obviously influenced by oriental culture, so the main entrance of Mycenae Castle is called "Lion Gate".
There is a small room on the left inside the Lion Gate, which is estimated to be the residence of the ancient janitor. Six rectangular vertical cave tombs were found to the east of the Lion Gate and the Cyclops Wall. These tombs are surrounded by erected stone slabs, with a diameter of about 26.5 meters. They are called circular tombs. A. In the stone circle, there are six tombs. These six rectangular vertical cave tombs vary in size and depth, ranging from 2.7 meters to 6. 1 meter in length and 0.9 meters to 4.5 meters in depth. Most of them collapsed. There are 19 people buried in six tombs, including men and women and two children. The bones in the same grave are very close. Most of these bones are closely covered with gold. This man is covered with gold cotton chrysanthemum and gold on his chest, surrounded by swords, gold cups and silver cups. Women wear gold crowns or money ornaments on their shoulders, beside them are decorative gold boxes, pins made of various precious materials, clothes decorated with gold foil ornaments engraved with patterns such as bees, squid, roses and silk thread, and two children are wrapped in gold nuggets.
After Sheriman found a large number of gold and silver products in these ancient tombs and tombs, combined with the story of Agamemnon's triumphant return from the battlefield in Homer's epic, and his wife and lover murdered the Mycenae monarch while he was unprepared at the banquet, he decided that the deceased wearing Jin Mianju in the tomb was the remains of Agamemnon and his entourage who returned from the Trojan War. 195 1 year, that is, 75 years after the excavation of Mycenae by Sheriman, the Greek archaeologist Dr. Papadimitri discovered the second tomb area, called the circular tomb circle B, which is only 100 meters west of Lions Gate. The excavated treasure can be almost the same as that discovered by Sheriman, and the age is basically the same as that of the former. The age of these rectangular vertical cave tombs is about 1600 ~ BC 1500, which is earlier than the Trojan War, that is, about 1 180 BC. Obviously, these tombs proved to be neither the graves of Agamemnon and his entourage, nor the graves of Agamemnon's wife and lover, but the graves of Mycenae royal family members, and the dead in the graves were buried one after another.
Around the same time that the Greek archaeologist John Pabatimitri discovered the circular tomb circle B, the British archaeologist Weiss and others excavated nine prehistoric cemeteries in the area west of the Cyclops Wall and outside the Lion Gate. These domed tombs belong to the middle Bronze Age, which is about equivalent to 1500 BC ~ 1300 BC. Archaeologists found the buildings, weapons and cultural relics described in Homer's epic in the tomb, thus confirming the close relationship between Mycenae and the world described by Homer.
Among these domes, the largest is the famous "Atreus Treasure House" ("Atreus" is Agamemnon's father). The door beam of this tomb was mined from a limestone, weighing 120 tons, 5 people high, nearly 5 meters wide and about 0.9 meters thick. Incredibly, Mycenae can accurately place the portal beams weighing 100 tons without cranes and jacks!
The main room of this tomb is circular in plane, composed of yellowish brown limestone, with a conical top, a height of 13.7m and a diameter of 15.2m at the bottom. The ground is paved with lime, and a square side room is cut out of the rock on the north side. There is a tomb door 6 meters wide and 36 meters long on the east side, with a total height of 10.5 meters. There is a tunnel about 5.2 meters long in the door, which is covered by huge stones weighing 120 tons. The walls of the tomb are decorated with murals. For a long time, people always thought that the Mycenae monarch put all their treasures in it, so it was called "treasure house".
Mycenae's grave has been buried under the lonely mountain for 3000 years. Although Dorians, Romans, Goths, Venetians and Turks successively occupied Greece and visited this golden city from BC 1 1453 to AD 1453, it is strange that they failed to find the buried ancient tomb treasure.
About12nd century BC, Mycenae sent troops to Troy, a rich city in Asia Minor, and it took 10 years to capture and destroy Mycenae and other cities.
The discovery of Mycenae castles, palaces, tombs and gold and silver products once again confirmed the authenticity of Homer's epic and solved the long-standing debate about Homer's epic in history. But it is equally surprising that Mycenae, which is rich in gold, does not produce gold. Where did the gold come from? Mycenae is heavily guarded and indestructible. Why do you keep falling? The weight of Shimen beam in "Atreus Treasure House" 120 tons. How did Mycenae hang it up? It is particularly puzzling why a large amount of Mycenae's gold and treasures were not taken away after the fall. So far, no one can solve these problems. Where is the precious treasure of The Templar? 1 1 19, several French Charise Carnes established religious and military order in order to protect pilgrims and defend the Latin Jerusalem kingdom established during the First Crusade. Because the headquarters of the Order is located in the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, it is called "Knights Templar".
After the establishment of the Knights Templar, due to the extortion of Muslims and Christians, the constant donation of pilgrims and the privileges granted by the Pope, considerable wealth has been accumulated. They owned fiefs and castles, opened banks for pilgrims and kings, and were early European bankers. Because of their luxurious life, insatiable greed, keen on mysticism and plotting to participate in political activities, they eventually aroused the dissatisfaction of European kings and other religious orders, were denounced as heresies and banned by European countries 1307.
13071010.5, King Philip IV of France ordered the arrest of all members of the Knights Templar in France. The king of France wanted to attack the Templars and confiscate their wealth to help the increasingly embarrassed financial expenses. However, the knights templar cleverly hid a lot of wealth.
According to the records of several historians and folklore, when Jacques de Molay, the high priest of the Templars, learned that the French king was going to destroy the Knights completely in prison, he took drastic measures to preserve the "traditional and noble basic teachings" of the Templars. He called his nephew, the young count Kishe de Borges, into prison, let the count secretly inherit the position of high priest, and vowed to save the Templar and keep his treasure until the end of the world. Then he told the count, "The body of my former high priest is no longer in his grave, but the files of the Templars are kept in his grave. Through these files, you can find many sacred objects and treasures. With this treasure, you can get rid of the influence of non-Christians. This treasure was brought from the Holy Land. It includes the crowns of the kings of Jerusalem, seven candlesticks of Solomon and four Jin Yinfu with illustrations by St. Sepil Koehler. However, the main money of the Knights Templar is still in other places, in the two big pillars of the altar at the entrance to the tomb of the high priest. The tops of these pillars can rotate by themselves, and there are huge treasures accumulated by the Templars in the hollow pillars. "
13 14 years, after Jacques de Molay, the high priest, was executed by the French king, Count kircher de Borges set up a "pure architect" organization and asked the French king to allow Mali's body to be buried in another place, and the king agreed. So Borg took the opportunity to take the gold, silver and precious stones from the pillars of the Templar Church. He put these treasures in a coffin, maybe even several boxes, and then moved them to a safe place where only a few confidants knew. Because the Templars are keen on mysticism for a long time, they have their own unique mysterious symbol system. It is said that they used this symbol system and secret religious ceremonies to hide and retrieve their treasures. Because of this, there are still different opinions about the whereabouts of the huge treasure of the Templars, which has become a difficult historical mystery.
According to local legends and mysterious symbols of the Templars, some people think that the treasures hidden in coffins and boxes are still in the Arzhny Castle near the fief of Count Borges in Rhone, France. It is said that besides the gold, silver and jewels of the Templars, there are a large number of sacred objects and extremely rare files.
Alzny Castle is now under the jurisdiction of Charente, Rhone Province, and belongs to an earl Jacques de Rosemont who knows the Templars very well. 1950, Mr. Rosemount received a visit from a British colonel. It is said that this is a representative of a church in England. He has come to talk with Mr. Rosemount about buying Alzny Castle. He told the count that he was willing to pay 100 million francs for this ancient castle. However, the Earl of Rosemount's answer was: "No!"
1952, an archaeologist and cryptographer who had studied the mysterious symbol system of the Templars, Mrs. Ke Riya, declared after a field trip to Arzhny Castle: "I am sure that the treasure of the Templars is in Arzhny. I found the key symbol to find the treasure. These symbols began to appear on the carved board at the entrance and continued to Alsimita, where there were the last symbols. I recognized an ancient Egyptian symbol, which shows that there is a secular treasure besides religious relics. " According to Mrs. Krazia, "There are eight small and tall trefoil windows on the Alsimita, and only one window is blocked with cement-bonded stones. It is necessary to open this window on June 24 and observe the light beam entering this window. 2~3 o'clock sunshine may play a decisive role, and it may shine on a stone that will show decisive symbols. However, I think only one person, a person familiar with the inside story, will claim to have found the secret key. "
Mr. Champion, a Parisian industrialist who is interested in finding the treasure of the Templars, once excavated the Arzhny Castle under the guidance of Armand Babol, a master of occultism and an astrologer, and Jacques Breuil, a writer who specializes in the occultism of the Templars. Because I have been unable to do anything about the connotation of the mysterious symbols engraved on the front of the building, I have found nothing. Jacques Breuil Emmanuel wrote a book called The Mystery of Sunshine after years of thinking in Arzhny Castle. In the book, he also expressed similar views with Mrs. Krazia.
Regarding whether the treasure of the Templars is hidden in the Arzeni Castle, the current owner of the castle, Mr. Jacques de Rosemont, thinks this way: "The Arzeni Castle in the secret oral circle of the Templars originally belonged to Jacques de Borg. Fortunately, the castle escaped Philip's destruction, so the treasure of the templar may be buried there. However, we have neither the means nor the reason to tear down the awe-inspiring walls in my building. Only scientific detection means can give exact instructions. "
According to the newly discovered data, the French "Treasure Hunting Club" thinks that the treasures of the Templars may not be in Arzhny, because no valuable materials have been found to confirm their existence. "Treasure Hunting Club" tends to think that the treasure of the Templars may be hidden in Barba's Qier Castle in Charente, because many puzzling ancient symbols of the Templars have also been found there. There used to be three knights templar fiefs around Barber's Castle, but a tomb has just been excavated in the fief in Kuolette. From the symbols carved on some stones falling from it, we can see that a guard stayed there for many years after the death of the Templar, and its mysterious mission seems to be related to monitoring buried treasures.
It is said that other treasures of the Knights Templar may be hidden in Bassas, Argonne and Lacorre, a small village in Andel-Loire province. The walls of the Walker Oz Castle in Valle, France, are also engraved with the mysterious symbols of the Templar, and there are legends about the hidden treasures of the Templar there. According to the French historian Jean Marcelo, the treasures of the Templars may also be found in Ma Erkai, the French province of Dulan, which used to be the location of the Templars' "golden cellar and silver cellar". The confidant members of the Templar know how to take out the necessary money when needed, and will hide the new money again according to the orders received. In a word, people think that the Templars did hide a lot of treasures, but the answer may be as elusive as the mysterious symbols carved on the stone.
