Has anybody stopped to consider that with all the half assed amateur attempts and screwing around over the years that whatever it is or was down there may have already been destroyed or so badly corrupted that we'll never really know for sure what was down there?

Tragic idea, I know but somebody had to say it.

Yep and maybe a natural site made endlessly 'mysterious' by a libel application of pious fraud

I wonder what would show up if they did some sonar pings of the pit or some sort of side scan sonar or ground penetrating radar could be quite interesting results or just alot of useless backscatter on the image...

I've never understood the idea of building a booby trap & not having a "release mechanism". If you were to bury something so significant to you, would you just be so much of an A-hole to say "if I can't have it, no one can...ever."?

I'd build a trap to discourage people from getting my goods, so I could later come along & get it.

What I'm getting at is, I bet there's a pit that will re-route the water. Probably right below whatever is there. I'd look for another depression near by, and dig.

It doesn't make sense not to have one unless it IS a tomb & the buried was never meant to see the light of day. The evidence points to that not being the case though.

wow. I never heard about this before. When was that built?

Read the book "The Money Pit" or any of the other zillions of them on the subject. Also YouTube if youre lazy............
