Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo had a wagon full of gold; but, they gave it back. So, we know about that much of Rome’s gold. ;-D

Thought the Romans gave it to various groups in an attempt to buy security. So ask the Vandals, Goths, Vis-Goths, Huns, etc where it is.

Vandals took a bunch in a big smash and grab. Their descendants live in DemonRAT cities now.

Well, it WAS in my possession, but I took it for a boat ride, along with my guns and ammo and wouldn’t you know it!

Tragic. Boating. Accident.

Sorry, Gang! ;)

That’s the cool thing about gold, unless it’s shot into space every iota of it is still here somewhere. Some of it is found daily.

From years ago this nice ditty.

“Gold is where you find it, but you always find Silver, under the Lone Ranger.”

The Romans forced the Carthaginians to pay tribute in talents of gold [ tons and tons of it]. When Carthage was destroyed the Romans went looking for the Carthaginian treasure. Nothing was found. Subsequent Roman emperors also went to Carthage, dug it up looking for the Carthaginian gold. Nothing. The Carthaginian fleet held off the Roman fleet whilst the Carthage elites, Elders and rear guard fled off with the treasure. The Carthaginians got their gold in African mines before the Romans were even born. The Carthaginians colonized the Gold Coast of Africa with 30,000 people and other places in Africa for 200 years before the Romans even were born. The Carthaginians fled westward away from the Romans with their treasure. The Iroquois have tales and legends of a bearded people who came to America, founded some ciies, had a battle. The Iroquois had no use for the gold so they just left it there. When the Dutch came to the Hudson River, they started killing the Lower Hudson River Indians for their red gold bracelets etc. [Cf. Henry Hudson`s sailor`s account.] they were wearing. When the Iroquois along the Mohawk River heard about this, they picked up all the gold and hid it in a cave. Some of The Carthaginians` gold was in the form of coins, probably, as their silver coins show an elephant on one side. Not one gold coin from Carthage that has an elephant on it has ever been found anywhere in the world, except one. It is pure gold, assayed in New York City in 1950` or later ?? It was was found in a cave in the mountains by a 2 Mohawk boys who knew where the gold cave was. They brought their white boy friend to the gold cave in 1840. The coin is still in a museum and can be seen today. It was handed down from the great grandfather. I heard stories of this “picking up the gold and hiding it in a cave coz the white man would kill you just to get the gold” story from my grandfather in my family oral tradition handed down since the 1850`s. I have a color pic photo of the elephant coin...It`s in my book...The Carthaginians even made it to England.

Gold of Tolosa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search
Boums lake
Boums Lake in Haute-Garonne, one of the many lakes near Toulouse suspected to have held the ‘cursed’ riches
The Gold of Tolosa (also the aurum Tolosanum) is the appellation used to refer to a semi-legendary treasure hoard seized by the ancient Roman proconsul Quintus Servilius Caepio from the Volcae town of Tolosa, modern-day Toulouse.

Near-contemporary Cicero briefly mentioned it in his philosophical dialogue De Natura Deorum, referencing political scandal in the late Roman Republic with the line “Consider other judicial inquiries, the one in reference to the gold of Tolosa, and the one on the Jugurthine conspiracy...”[1] The treasure itself was discussed by several ancient historians, including Strabo and Cassius Dio. huge
