Why did the Templars mark this mysterious spot on the map?
The hermitage of San Bartolomé, a 12th-century chapel in the Rio dos Lobos Canyon, was built by the Templars in a very specific spot.
By connecting the main Templar strongholds in the Iberian Peninsula, you can draw a cross on the map with the San Bartolomé hermitage right in the centre, at the very heart of an area with an ancient mystical history. But could the symbolism inside the chapel also link the location to the mythical Ark of the Covenant?
Ernest Shackleton's Endurance ship found in Antarctica after 107 years
More than a century after it sank off the coast of Antarctica, polar explorer Ernest Shackleton's ship HMS Endurance has been located, apparently intact and in good condition.
The ship, which sank in 1915, is 3,008 meters (1.9 miles or 9,842 feet) deep in the Weddell Sea, a pocket in the Southern Ocean along the northern coast of Antarctica, south of the Falkland Islands.
The discovery was a collaboration between the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust and History Hit, the content platform co-founded by historian Dan Snow.
"This is by far the finest wooden shipwreck I have ever seen. It is upright, well proud of the seabed, intact, and in a brilliant state of preservation," Mensun Bound, director of exploration, said in a statement.
Near midnight on the 15. of January 1905 the population in Bødal and Nesdal heard two gigantic bangs. A large piece of Ramnefjellet with the size around 50000 cubic meters had fallen down from 500 meters height and pushed a large scree in front of it, with the consequence that around 350000 cubic meters of blocks, stones and gravel ended up in Lake Lovatnet.
(Alrededor de la medianoche del 15 de Enero de 1905, la gente de Bødal y Nesdal escucharon dos gigantescos bangs. Un gran trozo del monte Ramne, de unos 50 000 m3, había caido desde una altura de 500 metros arrastrando parte de la ladera (+ o -), provocando que un total de 350 000 m3 de bloques, piedras y gravilla acabaran en el lago Lovatnet.
This created waves which annihilated large parts of the buildings and life in Bødal and Nesdal. In Outer Nesdal only a horse was found alive. The waves, three in number as usual by such occurences, destroyed 60 houses, all the boat houses, 70-80 boats and furthermore 94 cows, 10 horses, 145 shep and 16 pigs were killed. 61 people lost their lives, half the population of Bødal and Nesdal together. Only ten were ever found.
(Esto creo olas que devastaron gran parte de edificios y de la vida de ambos pueblos. En las afueras de Nesdal, sólo se encontró a un caballo vivo. Las olas, tres como suelen tener lugar en esta clase de incidentes, destruyeron 60 casas, todas las casas-barco, 70-80 barcas y, además, 94 vacas, 10 caballos, 145 ovejas y 16 cerdos murieron. 61 personas perdieron sus vidas, la mitad de la población de Bødal y Nesdal juntas. Sólo se encontraron 10 cuerpos).
...
Half past four in the morning on Sunday the 13. of September 1936 the population of Bødal and Nesdal heard a boom from the Ramnefjellet, which short time thereafter was followed by a thundering bang. One million cubic meters of rock fell down from 800 m height into Lake Lovatnet, pushing up the water and creating three waves; the highest a more than 74 meters high wave, which split in two directions, completely crushing all the farms in Bødal and much of the farms in Nesdal. 74 people lost their lives, but only 33 of the these were ever found. 11 persons were severely injured.
(A las cuatro y media de la madrugada del domingo 13 de Septiembre de 1936 las poblaciones de Bødal y Nesdal oyeron un boom proveniente del Monte Ramne, seguido al poco tiempo por un estruendoso bang. Un millón de m3 the roca cayeron desde 800 m de altura en el lago Lovatnet, provocando tres olas, la mayor de ellas de 74 m de altura, que se dividió en 2 y arrasó todas las granjas de Bødal y la mayoría de Nesdal. 74 personas perdieron la viday únicamente se encontraron 33 cuerpos. Once personas fueron gravemente heridas).

Por cierto, hace poco me encontré con unos mapas de Oslo/Christiania de los años 20 (también anteriores y posteriores). Si estais interesados los puedo volver a buscar y dejarlos por aquí. Ya sé que Oslo es una ciudad aburrida donde nunca pasa nada pero, entre Octubre y Marzo, la atmósfera es muy apropiada para deslizarse en la oscuridad (de forma literal)
