Exploration of the Goan Mystery Tunnel

Jim and Bill Vieira, stonemasons, are investigating the Goan mystery tunnel for evidence of giants. They seek archaeological support to excavate a potential crypt 15 feet underground. The tunnel's origins are debated, with no colonial tool marks found, suggesting an ancient structure. Archaeologist Steve agrees with the assessment, and plans for limited excavation are discussed. Dr. Marowski will recommend excavation to UMass, driven by curiosity to uncover the tunnel's story.
