Just thinking about cancatenate the primaries and only keep the primes . Does anyone think this might be applied to the lat and long of a particular location? In other words we create a new string only using the prime numbers of a particular lat and long location? Anyway im not in this one just thought id share my thoughts in case it helps anybody. Happy hunting all I had the same thoughts too. At first I didn't think it would work because Lat Long are pretty sensitive when moving around a map. You barely move your cursor and the numbers quickly change. So it would be hard to make sure people were on the exact pinpoint location to have the right string of numbers to use for the answer. But maybe that's why he's saying to concatenate the primaries, because the first couple numbers in long lat, or DMS etc. stay relatively stable while moving around a general location. It would help ensure that the same answer would be able to be pulled out if you were in the general location of "the men standing hand in hand" |

Just thinking about the last clue. Doesn't it really limit the search parameters? If your coming from the east and you hit deep water doesn't that really only leave the western side of the great lakes or as mentioned earlier the Hawaiian islands? Where else would you find "deep water"? I dont think any old lake ,reservoir, or river would be considered "deep water" oh as im writing this it occurs to me "crater lake" i belive is the deepest lake in the world ...located in Oregon

(Not the western). |

If from the east you here approach upon deep waters you encroach quickly travel to the other shore. Sounds like the western side to me.

And all three can be very deep. Many descriptions of rivers include deep and swift etc. lakes are deep. I don’t think deep is necessarily going to be a critical clue...just a describer. Just my 2 cents though. I still think it really sounds like Paul revere. If the British came from the sea (East) someone was to hang up two lanterns. Then they had to paddle a boat across the bay sneaking by British ships and make it to land to get the horses to then ride thru the towns and woods to warn people. It’s a perfect fit in my mind. |

The golden one lies waiting
For whoever ventures east
From a river red with blood
And a food that’s made with yeast

I am not a patreon member so I cant win but I do want to discuss this because the last few clues lead me to believe that this has to do with the luxor.
I am going to list all the things I found while looking for this over the past hour.
There is a city of bread in egypt also Cairo is known as the city of bread. The Nile ran red with blood.
Kom Ombo was originally called nubt which is the city of gold.
This quote about the red sea
The Red Sea hosts a deep marine environment unique among the world's oceans. It is occupied, almost homogeneously from the subsurface (~137 to 300 m) to depths over 2000 m, by a warm (~21.5°C) and highly saline (~40.5) water mass, referred to as the Red Sea Deep Water (RSDW)
Statues in egypt often have folded arms are hand in hand with themselves.
To the egyptians Cairo is where "life began"

To the egyptians Cairo is where "life began" i really like this i just wanted to add a link to some give coordinates, elevation and any other general info that might be needed for final solve . I too am sitting this one out. But it looks really good with what you got so far. Whatever the outcome may be thats great work putting all that together. Cheers!! |

Did you see that he put up another hint video?
He gave a verbal hint "the answer to this hunt lies in the western half of the country" and also another stanza:
A Spanish legend cleaved in half
By Roman "L" or 50 cents
If through a friendly vale you stride
A cross will be your final guide

I've hit a wall with this so I figured i'd throw it out there in case I missed something obvious. In New Mexico the Navajo have a creation myth about the start of mankind. It involved two warrior twins that were brought to the physical realm first to slay all of the monsters that inhabited the land to make it safe for mankind. When they slayed these monsters their blood ran across the land and hardened into what is now El Malpais. El Malpais was part of the trail for a lot of the Spanish expeditions looking for the lost cities of gold. Their markings can be found on Morro Rock on the Western side of the malpais marking the trail cutting thru it and towards the Acoma Pueblo. ElmaLpais is literally split in half by an "L" in its spelling. Not a Roman L I admit, but an L. I'm not sure on the Roman clue yet. But the "50 cent" clue made me look up different 50 cent coins, from Rome and Spain. There is a late 1800's 50 centamos coin from Spain, the Alphonso XIII. It was also nicknamed a "Pelon" which is a long, cigar shaped bread made in Spain....or a food made with yeast. That made me Google map Pelon and what do you know.... Pelon happens to be a Mountain around the center of the El Malpais on the eastern side....right next to a river of blood (the monsters blood of dried lava) Could this be the river of blood and food made with yeast? North of here is Ambrosia lake which I haven't been able to firmly tie to any of the water clues. I admit I couldn't find anything in this area that relates to the "if you hear approach from the east" etc etc clue. Also the man hand in hand clue I haven't been able to pin to anything. But there is a specific mesa in this area that man first appeared on according to legend. The slain monsters from the navajo story are various mountains and mesas in this general area. So maybe the beast of ancient time could be a couple of these mountains? If anyone can use this and take it further than I did, good on you. Oh ya, El Dorado translates to the "golden one" fyi. That has to be useful somehow.

I also had some thoughts on this. I don't see how this relates at all, but one Roman coin that begins with the letter "L" is a Libra which was worth about 50 cents. The astrology signs Scorpio and Virgo used to be the same sign but then they were split by Libra. I know, it has nothing at all to do with a Spanish legend. But thought it was interesting.

Oh ya El MaLpais is in Cibola county also. The lost city of gold county that is. Pelon mountain is right next to cibollita mountain also. So with a name like that I’d guess the Spanish trail, while looking for Cibola, went right by pelon mountain.
