In his book "The Age of Barns", Eric Sloane reveals that "..the word 'silo' once described 'a hole in the ground..."
It could therefore still be possible that the treasure IS associated with a structure (a silo), since the alternate meaning of "silo" of "a hole in the ground " is consistent with the statement that the treasure is not associated with a structure.

Sloane also reveals the name of a dictionary that he uses:
Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary of 1876
There is an online version of this available.
