The start coordinates are only an indicator for the area
where
the cache is hidden. To get the exact position, you have to
solve
following riddles concerning archeology.
762 kg was the weight of a stone. All knew that the stone was
special.
Many tried to find out more about it. And indeed. 24 years after
the
stone was found near 'El Rashid', one single man was
successful.
How old was the man when he found the stone? The result is
A.
How old was the man when he interpreted the stone? This is
B.
90 years after the death of both man, a so called 'Sir' found
something really amazing. A man, dead for more than 3000
years.
90 years old got a man, also a 'Sir' who encountered what he
thought to be the original Labyrinth of the Minotaurus.
But he was not the first who tried his luck on this island. 1884
there was
another great, probably the best known, archeologist, who had to
give up
digging because he was not allowed to buy the land.
How old was the first sir when he found the grave of the dead man?
C
How old was the second sir when he found the labyrinth?
D
How old was the third when he married his greek wife?
E
The sum of all these numbers is F (A+B+C+D+E)
Proceed to following coordinates (Stage 1):
N 46 40.000 + 7*F + B + 1
E 14 20.000 + 4*F - A
Look for a roman number which I will call X.
Stage 2:
N2 = N1 + F*10 - A + 1
E2 = E1 + X + F*15 + 53
Look for a 4-digit number which I will call G.
The crossfoot of it will be H.
Stage 3:
N3 = N2 + G*10/H - F - 266
E3 = E2 + A + B - H - 1
Count the number of the big glass-rectangles in both window-halves
and call it I.
Cache:
N4 = N3 + I - 2
E4 = E3 + (I-12)/3
The cache initially contains:
