So was it so simple? A form of disappointment won the public at the exit of this cinema, one of the 400 in France which, Friday May 2, projected the documentary film revealing the cache of the golden owl, a few months after being found on October 3, 2024.
The owl, ensures the hunting co-conceptor, Michel Becker, was therefore buried in a place known to any “naughty” who respects himself, in Dabo (Moselle), a “spot” yet raked since the beginnings of the hunt, in 1993.
For thirty years, thousands of players and players have been scouring in fact the surroundings of the Dabo rock on which a chapel is perched, and precisely the “Bornes Saint Martin”, almost three kilometers from the rock. A set of three stone terminals, engraved with dates, from which the discoverer – which to date remains anonymous – has been able to dig a few meters away to find the number 2 copy of the original bronze countermark, and exchange it for the real gold in gold.
Square complaint
How as many players, equipped with shovels at the beginning and, more recently, cutting-edge equipment such as these metal detectors nicknamed “Youpala”, capable of detecting large masses several meters deep, were they able to miss a few pounds of bronze buried at 80 cm deep, all just meters away from the famous terminals? The film reveals that the winner, by digging, was very close to giving up by falling on a large stone, which he ended up clearing to raise any doubt. Well took him.
In addition to the mystery of a cache that would have escaped everyone, a certain number of inconsistencies in the solutions revealed on Friday make owners tick. To the point that the association which represents them, the A2CO, took the lead by files a complaint with constitution of civil party on April 30 against the organizer of the hunting, Michel Becker, for “false and use of false, false and use of false in authentic writing by person custody of public authority, fraud in organized gang, breach of organized band, deceived commercial practices, ». Just that … “The terms used are strong, but they are legal, chosen by our council after its examination of the documents that we provided to it, in complete control of the laws in force”defends the association, whose annual “owl festival” is held next we in Vézelay.
In historical players, the solutions unveiled via this documentary provoke
