Doh! The holy grail is the cup that His Lord Jesus Christ drank out of at the last supper. Why Leonardo Da Vinci would know where the holy grail is i dont know, nor believe. He was an artist, who created brilliant art yes, but he was alive over a thousand years after Jesus's death and ressurection and what makes Leo so special as to know where the grail was.
Why didn't he have it then? Why doesn't any of his family or descdendants have it ? Seeing whoever finds it would rake in millions, im surprised.
The Da Vinci Code is a work of Fiction, nothing more. (And blasphemous too). In fact, it s crap.
Seeing that Jesus was Jewish and he was mainly based in Israel, i dont know why most biblical things only seemed to be based elsewhere. The grail, and unfortunate this is, was probably washed up with the other cutlery at the last supper and no-one had it, or it was taken by one of the disciples who hid it and treasured it rightly so, or it was taken by God as was the Ark of The Covenant so us greedy people and Man wouldn't get our hands in it. No one deserves to find those things on this earth, or even to touch them. God is rightly hiding them.

Sizzle, lol.........Squirel wasn't asking for the merits (or in your case none merits) of the book he was just after what Dan Brown was trying to say was the Da Vinci Code.
Yeah Squirel, according to old Danny boy, he reckons the Holy Grail is a woman.
If you read purely as a novel and don't look too deeply into it, you'll enjoy it.

The Da Vinci code is a work of ficton based around the belief that there exists a "code" hidden within the works of Leonardo Da Vinci. The belief is that LDV was one of many leaders of a secret organisation called the Priory of Sion who were deigned to protect the secret of the holy grail. In turn, this secret is based on the belief that the holy grail is a mistranslation and really refers to the holy blood line, i.e. that Jesus and Mary Magdalene had a family, one which still exists today. At the time of the bible collation, MM was dismissed as a prostitute and therefore excluded from history, so the priory set out to protect this info by keeping it secret. Quite why it would remain so for 2,000 years and why LDV felt the need to reveal it in his works is beyond me, but there you go. It�s a good story but I wouldn�t think any more of it than that.
Actually, there's a lot of revisionist history written on this, long before Dan Brown - try The Holy Blood, Holy Grail; or Bloodline of the Holy Grail; or best of all, the Hiram Key.
The theories speak for themselves. Note that the basis of one argument is that we say Holy Grail as it was translated wrongly in the mid ages, instead of San Greal (Holy Grail) it should have been Sang Real (Royal Blood - ie the bloodline of King David through Yehoshua Ben Josef,- Jesus son of Joseph).

Well that's the fashionable view.
Knowing that most things written in the olden days (unless they were a death warrant issued by a king etc) were allegorical or even symbolic. I am of the view that the constant quest for the Holy Grail was not for a material item (cup/chalice), or for proof of something that may have existed (blood line), but perhaps a quest or search for inner enlightenment. Thats my view anyway.

The Da Vinci Code is fiction based on the workings of Leonardo Da Vinci. Da Vinci was known for his vivid mind and wild ideas, much of his work screams conspiracy but if you link it all together there was method behind his madness. He knew the controversy he could cause by questionning the Bible - he does suggest that the Holy Grail was Mary Magdalene.... That was bound to annoy the Church!
It's considered fiction but historians have looked into the possibility for years - there must be 'something' in it otherwise they would never bother. For me personally, the Bible is the biggest load of nonsence, but I am wise enough to appreciate that people find comfort from it so would never disrespect other peoples views but I do believe that there is more to it... So did Da Vinci, Dan Brown and many many historians!
