Billions in gold, jewels found in Indian temple
Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple, Kerala, India
NEW DELHI, India (July 4, 2011) - A vast treasure trove worth an estimated $22 billion dollars was unearthed in a Hindu temple.The stash of gold coins, jewels, and precious stones unearthed at a Hindu temple in India is expected to grow in value on Monday as officials open the last two secret vaults sealed for nearly 150 years.
The discovery has instantly turned the 16th-century Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple into one of the wealthiest religious institutions in the country, prompting a government move to fortify security around it.
The four vaults already opened in recent days at the temple in Trivandrum, the capital of the southern state of Kerala, held a vast bounty that unofficial estimates peg at $22 billion.
Other treasures unearthed so far include statues of gods and goddesses (devas and devis) made of solid gold and studded with diamonds, rubies, emeralds, and other precious stones, crowns and necklaces, all given as gifts to the temple over the centuries. More
