The signs that have been used over the centuries for hiding treasures are cryptic representations that indicate actions to be taken. All that is needed is to decipher the secret knowledge they contain, so we can become privy to their truths.

Ioannis Ch. Baibakis

Through the extensive and uniquely thorough research of Giannis Baibakis, you will discover the magical world of signs and symbols that have been used around the world to designate treasure hiding places or to lead to points of special and general interest.

Specifically, his work gathers more than 2,000 signs and symbols of treasure hiding and marking places of interest. Additionally, you will read about measurement units, numerical systems, alchemical symbols, and death traps.

Very important is the chapter concerning guerrilla signs from the period of the Occupation and the Civil War in Greece, along with information about gold coins, material packaging, hiding and retrieval techniques, cryptography, and many other topics, including the chapter on the "Red Sheepskin" plan.

Two appendices at the end of the book include images of signs—from the author's personal collection—and treasure maps.
