The amount of corruption during the gold rush was ridiculous! The United States and Mexico both messed up big time, thus we needed heros like Murrieta.

[@mexicounexplained]

Be careful who you idolize.

Hey Robert glad to be back

[@mexicounexplained]

Welcome back.

[@Socalpatriot799]

Very exciting video, legend goes that there's lost buried gold that he left behind

[@mexicounexplained]

There are so many buried treasures out there that are lost. I am sure people are stumbling upon them but they're not telling anyone.

There's a plaque, Arroyo de Cantua just north of Coalinga by the 198.

I'm not sure if you've heard this, but I heard it on a podcast and I can't find the episode. Essentially it takes place during a civil war (?) in mexico, but near the US border. A young woman and a man sort of teamed up to help in the war. The woman was some sort of psychic and had a spiritual journey. The man was asked by an American/English speaking politician to gather people to support this man. He was supposed to translate this to the townspeople, but he ended up telling them to join him in the war. I'm really not sure about the details, so I was just wondering if you've heard of it. Also thank you and keep up the great vids! 👍🏽
