Scottish Rite
of Freemasonry
District of Columbia
On Saturday, March 21st the DC Scottish Rite presented an Evening with Don Wildman, host of the History Channel's “Cities of the Underworld.” The DC Scottish Rite invited members, as well as non-Masons, to join them for an evening with this exciting explorer. The audience was able to ask questions and take photographs with the host following the reception.
According to the History Channel, the show travels “hundreds of feet beneath the pavement to reveal hidden worlds that literally make up the foundations of today’s greatest cities.” Mr. Wildman often explores caves, tombs, sewers, hidden cities and so much more. Through his many adventures, Mr. Wildman has come across many exciting findings, some of which, relate to the Masonic craft and many of the show’s programs have some correlation to Freemasonry.
At the DC Scottish Rite, he discussed Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, the Cave of Mohammed, Akko and the Crusades, and even the sewers of Washington, DC.
While in DC to talk with the Masons, Mr. Wildman was also given a private, behind the scenes tour of the Scottish Rite’s House of the Temple. Brothers Jason Van Dyke and Bud Michels provided the tour commentary while Bro. Austin Curtis filmed parts of their tour. Click here for excerpts of this fascinating discussion.
