Here's a question for all the treasure hunters - why the hell would anybody go to so much trouble to bury something so completely that they intended to retrieve again?
Say you've got a chest full of gold coins. Sure, you want to safeguard it - but eventually, you want to be able to gain access to it again - people don't steal shit just to bury it forever. What good does a chest of gold do you if it's buried under a boobytrap so intense that nobody can penetrate it in 200 years of trying? Even if there's some secret way to access it, surely that's been screwed up by all the attempts, especially the one that's flooded the shaft.
It just doesn't make any sense.
