	==~~Captain Kidd's treasure~~==		==History==
	At some point in his life, [[William Kidd]], a [[Scotland\|Scottish]] [[Piracy\|pirate]], obtained a [[Shards of Eden\|Shard of Eden]] – a [[Rings of Eden\|ring]]-like [[Piece of Eden]] that served as a personal shield for the wearer – and later hid it on Oak Island to keep it safe from the [[Templars]]. He also created a map providing clues to the Shard's location, and divided it among four of his former crew members. In 1777, the [[Assassins\|Assassin]] [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] sailed to Oak Island and located the Shard with the help of the [[map]]s left by Kidd, which he had acquired through seeking out the pieces.<ref name="Oak Island">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]'' – [[Oak Island (memory)\|Oak Island]]</ref>		At some point in his life, [[William Kidd]], a [[Scotland\|Scottish]] [[Piracy\|pirate]], obtained a [[Shards of Eden\|Shard of Eden]] – a [[Rings of Eden\|ring]]-like [[Piece of Eden]] that served as a personal shield for the wearer – and later hid it on Oak Island to keep it safe from the [[Templars]].

	==~~Captain Kidd's treasure~~==		==History==
	At some point in his life, [[William Kidd]], a [[Scotland\|Scottish]] [[Piracy\|pirate]], obtained a [[Shards of Eden\|Shard of Eden]] – a [[Rings of Eden\|ring]]-like [[Piece of Eden]] that served as a personal shield for the wearer – and later hid it on Oak Island to keep it safe from the [[Templars]]. He also created a map providing clues to the Shard's location, and divided it among four of his former crew members. In 1777, the [[Assassins\|Assassin]] [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] sailed to Oak Island and located the Shard with the help of the [[map]]s left by Kidd, which he had acquired through seeking out the pieces.<ref name="Oak Island">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]'' – [[Oak Island (memory)\|Oak Island]]</ref>		At some point in his life, [[William Kidd]], a [[Scotland\|Scottish]] [[Piracy\|pirate]], obtained a [[Shards of Eden\|Shard of Eden]] – a [[Rings of Eden\|ring]]-like [[Piece of Eden]] that served as a personal shield for the wearer – and later hid it on Oak Island to keep it safe from the [[Templars]].
