The following was written to be Part II of my Grail Tale, the first part of which was published here recently as “How to look for the Grail”. To recap briefly, my entire investigation of that area began by trying to help a friend solve an old murder in the town of Reston, Virginia. Several highly interesting findings from there led me to conclude that my trail of clues also points to nothing less than the old “Templar Grail”.

This portion of our story will deal with specific Geographic Locations, namely the exact place in Virginia where I believe the Grail was hidden as well as several other interesting spots in that area. And we shall also have to follow several numbered Directions on the local map, to explain why I feel that this must’ve been the exact place. So if Geography and generally following numbers on maps is not your thing, you're not likely to enjoy the proceedings too much. Still, this is something which has to be told one day, and I’ll try hard to make it sound as exciting as possible.

Part I - Paros

In the southern part of the Aegean sea, off the south-eastern coast of mainland Greece and east of the Peloponnesus peninsula, lies the island archipelago of the Cyclades (pronounced "kick-lah-des"). It is composed of over 200 islands ranging in area from a few hundred meters to over 400 square kilometers (240 square miles), and nestled together in a relatively small region. The impression one gets when flying over the entire complex at high altitude is of looking at a puddle that some playful child threw sand and rocks in.

The Cyclades are located in a highly active geological region, at the very meeting point of the African and Eurasian tectonic plates in the north-eastern Mediterranean. The continual subduction activity there formed a sea-floor in the Aegean, which differs greatly from the rest of the Mediterranean, its "parent" sea - the latter is mostly smooth, while the former is dominated by underwater mountains and deep trenches.

All of the islands are the visible tops of submerged mountains, except for two which were created by ancient volcanic eruptions - Milos, and the famous Santorini (Thera). And there is another island which is a notable exception in the area, a place whose Ancient Mystery is begging to be unraveled today.
