Keith Ranville's Translation of the Oak Island Flagstone
 Keith Ranville
[His website:
A new light shines on the Oak Island
Treasure Mystery.]
has come up with
a differing translation from the generally accepted one. He is of
native Canadian descent and has used his native background to find a message
on the stone. The message concerns an island two islands to the east
of Oak Island (Birch Island) which has a distinctive triangle carved into
the north side of the island.In an email to us, Ranville says: "the forty symbols [on the flagstone] explain about an island two islands east of Oak Island called Birch Island, on the north end of birch Island the impression of a triangle is there. |

It takes more than half of the Island. You can see the triangle from Google satellite (Google Earth from which we obtained these photos), the triangles that were inscribed on the stone tablet refer to the triangle on Birch Island the rest of the symbols are engineering instructions or explain what goes on in the triangle area on Birch Island there is something of great heritage value there that will interest everyone." |
The accepted translation of
this:
is this:

But now, there are other ideas about the flagstone's translation. Read below:
What these symbols are saying
is that there is a inverted hidden triangle, that is aligned south/north.
Flooding or entering the right angle of the triangle will invert the hidden
triangle to up right? The rest of the symbols are instruction verse 3
,4, 5 this is theory but exploration is needed to confirm these symbols I
will be able to get a closer look at Birch Island when I start the filming
of my documentary but this translation is more direct the two verses are
making more sense as I study the Triangle more closely. Remember
Sir Francis Bacon was a Freemason...So what is the answer to this mystery?Someone has obviously gone to great lengths to conceal some great treasure at Oak or possibly, Birch, Island. It is, apparently, too late to get to this treasure the easy way. When they found the flagstone they should have stopped and translated it but instead went on digging and broke the corks that let the water flood the tunnel system. And, according to Ranville, everyone is looking in the wrong place anyway. In ongoing correspondence with Ranville, this writer asked, "Where is the 'X' that marks the spot?" Ranville says, "I am looking forward to exploration. I am waiting for permission to explore the Island and I will be taking soil samples measurments ect.. [the] "X" spot would be at the right angle of the triangle what the symbols say. But field investigations are needed. These are exciting times for Oak Island." But what do instructions actually mean? One day, when technology catches up with the ancient booby traps built into the money pit, we will be able to take a look and see what was worth all the hiding and seeking. Some postulate that the pit contains millions (some say even BILLIONS) in UK pounds. Others have gone so far as to link the Oak Island Money Pit with Freemasons, Templars and .... The Holy Grail. Does the Holy Grail lie at the bottom of a deep pit in eastern Canada? Of course, it may be something of great historical and heritage value and not English Pounds and some monetary treasure at all. Anyway, one day, when someone rich enough, with enough time on his/her hands and clever enough to outsmart the designer of the money pit finally steps up to the plate, this writer hopes he is around to see what all the fuss is about! |
