The Sunken Treasures from Egypt and Abyssinia
The forgotten soldier-explorer's immense treasure
by Pascal Kainic
This ship had been especially chartered by a famous, but also controversial explorer returning to Europe after a 18 long years voyage of discoveries through Abyssinia, Middle East and Asia. All the fruits of his ventures had been loaded on this ship who was finally lost en route with all her contents.
Amongst various exotic goods was a consignment of 15 tons of silver coins; fine gold jewellery, precious stones, antiques from Petra (the mysterious city) and Egypt; cameos, precious statues in bronze, golden beetles, hieroglyphs, old inscriptions on bas-reliefs, and a whole library of books, manuscripts and works revealing amongst others, the Mysteries of Isis …
The shipwreck and all her contents are still lying in a bay, in shallow waters, untouched... Who will have the chance to discover this fantastic treasure wreck ? Archaeology should prevail on such an incredible cargo... Some mysteries could be revealed from the ancients...
The story comes from original archives, only known by a few people, but no group of salvors yet...

Redéfinissez la carte topographique de ce temps. Il paraît que le bateau est maintenant sous le sable en terre ferme. Voyez avec la sédimentation sableuse éolienne.
J'ai lu l'histoire avec des spécialistes en cartographie et géologie. Ils ont embarqué sur les côtes Égyptiennes et ont fait naufrage pas en haute mer mais en bordure.

Sorry all. If it were in shallow water it would be gone by now unless storms washed it out to sea. If I had the location, I am not sure I would share it.

the story says they went back to europe after being in asia and they also got antique treasures from Egypt, if you take a look at a map over africa you see that, if they came from asia they must have taken the way through indian ocean and then the atlantic ocean, i think the shipwreck is somewhere in mediterranean sea or north-west of the african shore
