IN SEARCH OF LOST TREASURE

the Knight's Templar

The first group of Knights Templar consisted of 9 , mainly French, knights, who devoted their lifes, as soldiers of Christ, to protect the pilgrims travelling to the Holy Land and driving off the Islamic forces, that threatened the Kingdom of Jerusalem and other christian territories. They proved to be a mighty fighting-force and are the architects of a number of imposing castles.

During their first stay in Jerusalem, a certain area was designed to the Order, approved by the Pope. This area was of quite excluse archeological importance. The Knights made camp amidst the remains and on top of the Jewish Holy Temple, which was set on fire in 70 ad.

The knights did not spend much time on patrolling the neighbourhood. Instead they began excavating the place. They cleaned the famous underground stables of King Salomon.

What did they find. And why leave the Holy Land in a hurry, after 9 years.
