Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1138 The Scepter of the Mayan Empire

In Ye Tian's eyes, this hexagram gold scepter head not only radiates the inherent golden light of gold, but also has a gorgeous yellow light mixed in it.

From the intensity of this yellow light, Ye Tian can accurately judge that it is a golden scepter head from 800 years ago.

In addition to the brilliant red light, this golden scepter head is surrounded by more than a dozen layers of charming halo, which is pleasing to the eye!

These ten layers of charming halo show its extraordinary artistic value and collection value, as well as the cultural research value behind it!

Obviously, this is a very rare Indian antique artwork with a lot of value!

The reason why Ye Tian made the judgment that the head of the scepter is related to the Golden City, of course, has his basis.

The first is the characters on the head of the scepter. On the six corners of the hexagram gold scepter head, a pictograph is engraved on the front and back respectively, adding up to a total of twelve hieroglyphs!

These twelve hieroglyphs are all different, there is no repetition, and each represents a different meaning!

From this alone, Ye Tian can be sure that this is the golden scepter head of the Mayans, a product of the Indian Mayan civilization! And it's priceless!

As a symbol of royal power, this golden scepter head is already extremely rare, and the existence of these twelve hieroglyphs makes this golden scepter head even more valuable!

At this point, the antique works of art of all civilizations are the same, without exception!

Antique works of art engraved with words are the most representative evidence of one's own civilization, and it is by no means comparable to those artifacts without words!

As a branch of the Indians, the Mayans are the only ethnic group in America who left written records. The rest of the ethnic groups have no written records, or have long since disappeared in the long river of history!

Ye Tian had seen Mayan hieroglyphs on some Indian antique artworks he had dealt with before. Although he didn't understand the meaning of these characters, he had no problem identifying their source.

Moreover, he can accurately determine the age of the relevant antique artworks, combined with the creative style, it is naturally very easy to identify the civilization that the antique artworks come from!

Of course, just relying on these dozen or so hieroglyphs is not enough to support his judgment that the head of the scepter is related to the Golden City!

The more important evidence is the patterns engraved under the hieroglyphs, all over the front and back of the golden scepter head, full of engravings!

All the patterns are sacrificial scenes, sacred and solemn, and smell of blood! Because the sacrifices appearing in these patterns are all human beings, and judging from their posture and attire, they should be prisoners of war!

Using prisoners of war to sacrifice is one of the things the Mayans like to do most, as do other Indians. Some tribes even use their own people to sacrifice!

The place where the Indians held sacrifices in the pattern is a temple radiating golden light, which is very tall, similar to a pyramid, but with a square top.

Through these extremely fine sacrificial patterns engraved, we can understand part of the life scenes of the Mayans, and we can also see their superb seal cutting skills!

The sacrificial patterns shown on the head of the golden scepter, as well as the square-topped pyramid temples that radiate dazzling golden light, are very consistent with the legend of the Golden City that is widely circulated in Central and South America.

Another point is that the Mayan civilization, the most dazzling in the ancient history of Central and South America, and the Aztec civilization, which originated from the same family as the Mayan civilization, were destroyed by the Spanish colonists!

At the beginning of the 16th century and the end of the 17th century, they were completely destroyed by Spanish colonists one after another, and disappeared into the long river of history, leaving only a mark that once existed everywhere!

Therefore, it is reasonable for the Spaniards to obtain the golden scepter head that symbolizes the royal power of the Mayan Empire.

Perhaps this is the private collection of the last Spanish governor in South America. When the Bolivar army was about to invade Lima,

It was hastily packed into an oak crate, along with several other pieces from the collection, for shipment back to Spain!

But who would have imagined that Captain Thompson, who was in charge of transporting the treasure, would be open to money, slaughter all the Spaniards at sea, throw them all into the sea to feed the fish, and then take the treasure of Lima into his pocket!

Nearly two hundred years later, this famous pirate treasure was found by Ye Tian again, and the head of the golden scepter, which symbolized the kingship of the Mayan Empire, also appeared before his eyes!

In addition to the sacrificial pattern as the main body, there are some patterns of animals and plants on the head of the golden scepter, as well as patterns of the sun, moon, and stars, which are scattered in various positions!

In addition, there are some invisible thin lines, which are entwined on those square top pyramids, and it is difficult to find if you don't pay attention to it!

Ye Tian also discovered the existence of these tiny lines by virtue of his perspective ability.

What these lines mean, he does not dare to draw conclusions for the time being. Only after careful study and consulting some experts and scholars who study Mayan civilization can he know their meaning.

They may point to the location of the Golden City, or they may have no meaning, just some simple decorative patterns!

But no matter what, Ye Tian had already made up his mind at this time, he must take this rare golden scepter head, no matter what the cost.

The head of the golden scepter, engraved with more than a dozen hieroglyphs and symbolizing the royal power of the Mayan Empire, is already a priceless rare treasure!

What's more, it may point to the lost Golden City. According to the legend, what a huge treasure it is! As long as there is a chance, it must not be missed!

Taken together, perhaps this golden scepter head is the most valuable treasure in Lima's treasure!

After his eyes stayed on the hexagram golden scepter for a while, Ye Tian reluctantly turned his eyes away and looked elsewhere!

What he saw next was also all kinds of dazzling gold and silver treasures, which made his eyes dizzy!

Soon, he took a quick look at the crate on this side, and then retracted his sight, ending the look!

Due to the angle, there are still some boxes in the middle that cannot be seen through. I don’t know what is inside. It must be gold and silver, or various jewelry, and other valuable treasures!

Ye Tian is not in a hurry, there will be opportunities later, so why rush for a while!

As long as he wants to, he can always be ahead of others, understand the situation in the box, and make decisions that are beneficial to him in advance.

After inspecting these boxes, Ye Tian pretended to go deep into the cave again, and with a bright flashlight, he went to investigate the situation in the deep cave!

About five minutes later, he came out from the depths of the cave and came to Pique.

At this time, Pique continued his work, using the light of the strong flashlight to check the words on the wooden crates one by one, very serious and excited, his eyes were shining like searchlights!

"Okay, Pique, you don't need to identify them one by one. The answer is very clear. This is the Lima treasure that has made countless people frantically search for nearly two hundred years.

Leave the rest of the work to Jason and other company colleagues, those guys from Columbia University, and those Costa Ricans, that's their job!

They will carefully count every chest, every gold bar, every silver ingot, every jewel diamond, and other valuable gold and silver treasures, which should be ours and no one can take it from us! "

Ye Tian said with a light smile, interrupting Pique who was working hard.

Hearing this, Pique immediately raised his head and said excitedly:

"You are right, this is indeed the treasure of Lima. Every box comes from the city of Lima, and each one is filled with gold and silver treasures. It is really shocking!"

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, this cave is very safe, no animals were found, only some liverworts, and nothing else!

We can let those guys on the top of the cliff come down, Professor Douglas and the others are probably going crazy from suffering, and they are not sure how to curse us behind their backs!

Let's go to the entrance of the cave, use those stalagmites protruding from the ground, fix the climbing ropes, arrange two downhill ropeways, and let those guys on the top of the cliff come down one by one! "

With that said, Ye Tian stepped towards the entrance of the cave!
