SOTA Evidence Spelling Errors I searched, but I didn't find anything about the spelling errors on the evidence page of SOTA.
Antikythera is spelled "Antikythere", I don't know if that's an acceptable alternate spelling though.
And at the end of the description for Stonehenge in the explanation of the "point" (The Round nature with counterpoints seems to bee an ancient theme.) the word 'bee" is used instead of "be".
Just throwing it out there, I don't know what the significance could be if any.

There was some discussion of this, though I don't think anything was found. Throughout the entire site, there are several spelling errors

After Grifter_7 compiled the list, it appears that there are FAR too many typoes to be a simple clue. I originally thought that it might lead to another page on that website.....but there are like 50 typos or something....so I don't really think that is the case.

maybe... maybe the BEE was meant as an intentional tie-in to the ilovebees.com ARG...

Should we parse out the spelling error discussion into this thread and make it official? Seems people are missing it among the giant uber thread we have going.

I completely agree, Urk. I think that would be much better. Can a Mod do this?

I'd say just copy it into this thread... the other one is over 90 pages long and closed... better to put that content in here where it belongs and is easily findable (ick grammar)
