These Brothers Bought an Island to Look for Treasure Only to Find that It Is Cursed

Who buried the treasure of Oak Island?

They were about 127 feet deep when William and his team were able to dig out historical artifacts. At first, William was able to find a miner’s pic and an oil lamp – both have been identified to come from Britain. This was seen as further proof that humans made the Money Pit. Then, they found the French axe.

If the Money Pit is real, who does it belong to? Historians started to come up with their theories as William and his team discovered the artifacts. Everyone was curious about what could lie in the bottom of the pit. A few think that the treasurers belonged to Marie Antoinette and that she may have fled to Oak Island when the French Revolution took place. For some, they believe that Francis Bacon has buried proof revealing that he was William Shakespeare.
