It is probably the most encyclopedic coverage of the history/hoax/whatever concerning the Roslyn, The Knights Templar, the Albigensiens, and all the stuff concerning the famous treasure and heresy of the Albigensiens. By the way, the painting that was involved in the original plot has nothing to do with DaVinci. Rather, it is Nicolas Poussin’s famous ‘Bergers en arcadie’ which also hangs in the Louvre. It has a pentagram form, canted at a small number of degrees (1.634 or whatever) based on the Golden Mean.( Most baroque paintings are formally structured on the Golden Triangle in a different way, not on the occult symbol of the pentagram.) The BBC did a nice TV series about that mystery back in the mid-70s, which is where I first learned of it. Unfortunately ‘The Tomb of God’ is rather poorly written in the literary sense, but there’s a lot of fun stuff in there, and has some plates with the Poussin and the geometry behind it. The village in France where Jesus’ remains are thought to be buried (according to this admittedly far-fetched scheme) is evidently quite a tourist location, all centered around this nonsense. Worth a visit though I’ll bet, for the confit de canard and cassoulet if nothing else.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Some of the old cults implicated in the heresy were said to ‘worship’ the Virgin Mary, or the devil, or both, or….
