History of Sir Cadillac and Detroit

Antoine Laumet de La Mothe, sieur de Cadillac (1658–1730) was a French explorer and adventurer in New France, now an area of North America stretching from Eastern Canada in the north to Louisiana in the south.  Rising from a modest beginning in Acadia in 1683 as an explorer, trapper, and a trader of alcohol and furs, he achieved various positions of political importance in the colony.   In 1701, he founded Fort Pontchartrain du Détroit, the beginnings of modern Detroit, which he commanded until 1710. Between 1710 and 1716 he was the governor of Louisiana, although he did not arrive in that territory until 1713.

During his last visit to the land that is now the city of Detroit, he buried some treasure that he collected during his journeys around the area.  You as archeologists are responsible for finding the location of the treasure based on the logs of Sir Cadillac that your fellow history scholars (the Physics Students) have just discovered and translated into directions.  Based on these directions, you will find the treasure and claim the treasure for the local museum.
