- Caribbean, the bastion of
- Santo Domingo (above)
- defended the colonial port
- from pirates tempted by
- treasures like this recently
- discovered gold cacique
- and jaguar from the pre-
- Columbian Sinú culture.
- Seven miles of stone walls,
- 60 feet thick in spots, still
- encircle a hundred-block
- area of the old city.

- But exactly where? Landmarks have changed, but the
- treasure indeed exists, unfound....somewhere in
- this swelling sea.
