the discovery of the treasure of Solomon
According to legend, the Ark of the Covenant was a means of communicating with God and could also destroy armies and bring down the walls of cities. In order to use it the High Priest of the Israelites had to wear a breastplate containing twelve sacred gemstones called the Stones of Fire. All these objects were kept in the Great Temple of Jerusalem until they vanished following the Babylonian invasion in 597 B.C. At the ancient ruins of Petra in southern Jordan, the author uncovered evidence that 13th century Templars found the Ark and the Stones of fire and brought them back to central England. He followed clues and may have found three Stones of Fire. When examined by Oxford University Scientists, these stones were found to possess odd physical properties that interfered with electronic equipment and produced a sphere of floating light similar to ball lightning.
