This week’s Throwback Thursday edition is another terrific article by Kel Hancock that discusses the roots of treasure stories and how they fueled the fire of the Oak Island Mystery. Kel writes in February 2016:
“What we are committed to doing is providing readers with plenty of information about Oak Island, particularly a lot that is being both inadvertently and intentionally overlooked by current day theorists and writers. This is information which initially drew treasure-hunters to the region. And that, we feel, is important. We truly hope that information we publish is of interest and use to enthusiasts and researchers alike. In the case of today’s article we leave it to the reader to ponder and decide for themselves how, when, and why a shift occurred in from the more obvious possibilities in The Oak Island Mystery to the more fantastic and sometimes downright outrageous theories that are being put forth today.”
And Good day from the Compendium!
