j2dad: I guess after all these years they decided to clear the brush from under the trees. I will not replace.

Geocache Description:

The posted coordinates are falsus.  I don't think the residents will like you poking about their house.  Solve the puzzle to obtain the verus coordinates.

To derive the final coordinates, you will need to do a little arithmetic.

First, you need to come up with some answers to these relatively simple clues, and then assign values:

A = Offical language of Roman Republic
B = Egyptian Queen
C = Canal City
D = Largest Roman army unit
E = Largest amphitheatre
F = Artemis counterpart
G = I came I saw I conquered (First word)


Then, use those values to compute:
X = ( A + B + (C * 7)) * 2 - 2
Y = ( D - E + F - (G * 2) ) * 2 - 3


Then add X to the posted North coordinates: N 30° 30.(700 + X)
And add Y to the posted West coordinates: W 097° 48.(230 + Y)

If the computed values are negative, then obviously you would subtract the value. If the final value exceeds 1000, carry over to the ones digit of the minutes. Likewise, if the final value is lower than 0, then borrow from the ones digit of the minutes.
Good luck and have fun!

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
