Every glowing point on this map marks a **real, documented treasure recovery** — 51 of history’s greatest finds, from the ~4600 BC Varna gold (the oldest worked gold on Earth) through the SS Central America’s sunken bullion, the Staffordshire Hoard, Tutankhamun, the Terracotta Army, San José, and the **Roxas Golden Buddha** of the Yamashita-treasure court case. Click any pin for its story, filter by type, and use **Chart Your Find** to add your own discoveries — choosing exactly how precisely your location is shown, so real sites stay protected. Values are best-available estimates (treasure valuations are often disputed); museum and contested pieces are marked Priceless. Spot something that belongs here, or a detail worth correcting?
