Did the Knights Templar arrive in North America centuries before Christopher Columbus?
In short: Forensic geologist Scott Wolter examines the enduring mysteries of the Knights Templar, tracing their history from their 1129 recognition to their 1307 suppression. This documentary investigates whether these knights transported a significant secret across the Atlantic, leaving behind coded symbols as evidence of their presence.
The documentary follows Scott Wolter as he explores the theory that the Knights Templar acted as guardians of a holy bloodline. Central to this investigation is the use of the 'Hooked X' and various other cryptic symbols, which Wolter suggests were employed to encode and preserve their knowledge.
The film traverses diverse locations, ranging from ancient commanderies in France to sites in Pennsylvania, where Wolter works to distinguish between historical evidence and modern hoaxes. By examining these clues, the documentary probes the possibility that the Templars established a presence in North America long before the arrival of Columbus.
