No, the list Dumbledore gave is as follows:
1. The diary (destroyed)
2. The S. ring (destroyed)
3. The S. locket (whereabouts unknown, note below)
4. The H. cup (whereabouts unknown)
5. Nagini (with Voldemort)
6. The horcrux in question, (Dumbledore suggested it might be an item from either Griffindor or Ravenclaw)
7. The piece of soul left in Voldemort
Harry said he felt like he needed to go to Godrics Hollow because it is where it all started for him and he felt like that is where he should start on his quest (HBP pg 650). Dumbledore did not tell him he needed to go there. I know he did not know he was going to get the award, but after he got it, he would have thought it was very special. Now, Dumbledore said that he thought Riddle was looking for another object when he came asking for a job(HBP pg 505). We have no way of knowing how long he had to cast the spell after commiting a murder, but if he had just rescently killed someone, he might have been ready to create a horcrux, and perfomed the spell on his way out, settling for the trophy. Or, he might have come for the trophy all along and created the horcrux befor or after the meeting with Dumbledore. Plus, the book does not say that a murder must be commited with the intention of creating a horcrux in order for it to count. It only says that commiting such an act splits the soul (HBP pg 49 , and then once split, a piece can be placed in an object creating a horcrux, possibly giving as long as he wanted to find a suitable object.
As far as Myrtle goes, how is commanding the basilisk to kill muggles any different than say shooting a wild spell into a crowd? No matter who the victim ends up being, it's still murder. The basilisk was merely the weapon he used. I think, however, that hers was the death that gave him the piece of soul for the diary.
I don't think there would have been any spells cast to prevent horcruxes being formed. That would imply that they were worried about the possibility of it happening. If they were to go that far, there would have been spelles to stop most of the stuff that Harry, Ron and Hermione did, like making the polyjuice potion or to keep students from jinksing each other. As it is, the protective spell are increased as the possible danger increases. They are not there all the time for every possible thing that might happen. And until they got the real memory from Slughorn, he was the only one who knew that anyone at Hogwarts would even consider it.
Finally, what better place to keep such an item than under the protection of Dumbledore himself. It's a slap in Dumbledore's face to leave it with him.
[snapback]13303[/snapback] | u guys take everything dumblredore said as true he never gave us a stinkin list!!!!
theres enough evidence 4 harry nagini the locket and the riddle book every thing else is complete guess work  |
... "Godric's Hollow" means (literally) "Godric's valley between mountains" (lol), but 'hollow' also means "a cavity or space in something"... couldn't it be possible for Godric Gryffindor's object to be in that little town?? What do you think??
