Get away from that Beer can!
Amateur metal detectorist discovers a long, thin, mysterious metal object. He realized he had uncovered one end of a bronze sword, which was sticking straight up from the ground.
He marked the location of the sword with a beer can and contacted local officials.
The sword measuring nearly two feet long, the sword dates to between roughly 900 and 700 B.C.E. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/a-man-unearthed-a-mysterious-metal-object-sticking-straight-up-from-the-ground-it-turned-out-to-be-a-2700-year-old-sword-180989232/ #MetalDetector #Artifact #BronzeSword #Sword #Bronze #Museum #Poland #History
