The Freemasons' insignia

The Freemasons were a fraternal organization formed in the late 16th or early 17th century who were responsible for transporting an Apple of Eden to the New World, carrying it across the sea.[1]

In order to remain unnoticed by British soldiers in the Thirteen Colonies, the Freemasons moved around in tunnels beneath Boston and New York. To discover points of access to these underground tunnels, Ratonhnhaké:ton analyzed Freemason documents to find clues to the arrangement of symbols formed by their magic lanterns.[2]

During the American Revolution, some of the most prominent leaders of the revolutionary forces and the Continental Army were Freemasons.[2]

Trivia
