top of page

Indy-Anna Bones is an archaeologist, street-art expert, part-time cryptozoologist, and personal friend to several pigeons.

She was on an expedition to find the legendary Westford Knight.

She found the possible grave at a bend in the road near a school in the back roads of Massachusetts.

The Westford Knight

Westford, Mass

The stone was first mentioned in 1883, and was then thought to be the work of Native Americans.

The carving was later reinterpreted as a Norse warrior with a sword.

When Indy-Anna looked at the actual rock, she couldn't see much at all.

In 1954 the stone was re-located, and reinterpreted once more as the fallen brother of Henry Sinclair. The Sinclair family is said to be inheritors of the Templar legacy after the order was outlawed in 1312.

According to the most recent legend, Sinclair brought a Templar treasure to New England. These alternate histories connect to sites all around the region, ranging from rune stones and towers in Southern New England, to the infamous mystery of Oak Island.
