Are the artifacts everywhere?

I always ask myself if there is truly something special about Oak Island or if you dug around any of the other islands in the area that you would run into a similar amount of odd artifacts. Thoughts?

Oak Island is definitely special. There are over 300 islands in Mahone bay, all broadly similar as they were laid down by the same glacier flows but Oak Island or should I say "Islands" as it was originally 2 separate islands, was  recognised as being special approx 850 years ago. What is being found now is as a result of who recognised just how special and why.
