Buried treasure. We’ve all heard tales of stolen riches buried by thieves and cutthroats, killers who made off with their loot only to hide it away for a later time. Whenever most think of buried treasure however, they think of pirates who sailed the seven seas. Missouri is, of course, nowhere near an ocean, but that doesn’t stop us from having our own tales of buried treasure While there were certainly small pirate crews along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, there were also bandits and bushwhackers, bank robbers and highwaymen, along with thieves, miners, and conquistadors who found themselves in distress throughout the state, and all of them have tales about their ill-gotten gains being buried. In this episode, we are going to examine some of the most interesting myths and legends that surround just a few of these treasures. Join us as we discuss treasures that may be buried away and hidden, in the Show-Me.
