Quoting my own post from the "What do you think the key map leads to?" thread:

" Considering the origine of the keys (crusades), and the fact that the series always takes real myths and fairytales as inspirations for their story line, PLUS the rumours about the cross, the nails etc. I would guess the hidden object is the holy grail itself. In history - especially the legends of the crusades, there is no other object as important, as powerful, and as prominent, as the holy grail. If there are rumours about the hidden object being related to Jesus' death, the most obvious object would be the grail, however they are stating everything BUT the grail (cross, nails...) therefore it seems even more suspicious... Other legends of the keys talk about immortality, so do some of the legends about the holy grail. Or maybe it turns people into wesen, or makes one powerful. Who knows...  All the crusade legends are talking about the knights bringing the cup to Europe, but hiding it indtead of giving it to the church. Sounds familiar?"
