Treasure

"Imagine what riches this 150-lb, 400-year-old metal chest once held! It belonged to Thomas Tew, who made an enormous fortune raiding ships loaded with precious jewels, ivory, and silk from the Indian Ocean and Red Sea.

If you look inside the lid of the ornate painted chest, you'll find shapes of mermaids worked into the design. If you explore the bottom of the chest, you'll see a small case. That's where Tew locked particularly valuable items."
