With a nod to Zaydoun's posts on the topic of the The Da Vinci Code, today's papers report that the Holy Grail code has supposedly been broken by an American codebreaker...the code is an inscription on the estate of Lord Lichfield in Staffordshire..it's known as the Shugborough code and it is : D.O.U.O.S.V.A.V.V.M.

It is under a monument called the Shepherd's monument on the estate, which is reversed reproduction of a painting by Poussin called Et In Arcadia Ego (which hangs in..you guessed it..the Louvre)...

"Et in Arcadia ego... is supposedly the official motto of both the Plantard family and the Priory of Sion"

Last May, Lord Lichfield's estate teamed up with the famous codebreakers at Bletchley Park(made popular by the Kate Winslet film 'Enigma')..they have received tons of theories from different people and seem to favour the one sent by an anonymous American defense expert..he thinks that the Shugborough code spells 'Jesus (as diety) defy' (as in: Defy the idea that Jesus is Christ/Diety)

You can read more in today's Independent and The Guardian,

"The American was last seen heading back to Staffordshire to test his theory that the alignment of other monuments built by George Anson on the estate might point to the grail's position. "I really think that might be it, don't you?" he said. " (Guardian)
