Florida's Fabulous Treasures -
LOCAL, By Jeffrey Kramer,
Treasurelore.com, Many researchers
and historians claim that Florida
contains more buried and sunken
treasures than any other state. They
have also put a price tag on these
treasures, which amounts to a cool $165
million (1964). Florida, like all other
states, has a fascinating and romantic
history. Seven different flags have
flown over her, not to mention the black
flag of the pirates. Florida became the
haven of many notorious pirates,
including Blackbeard, Lafitte,
Gasparilla, Kidd, Rackham, Bowlegs,
Bonnett, and possibly even Morgan
himself. They roamed the waters of the
Caribbean Sea, and captured every ship
in sight. Often, they brought their loot
back to Florida, and buried it on some
lonely shore. When they finally died,
the location of their hidden wealth died
with them. The majority of all buried
treasure in Florida is the work of
pirates...
