Amazing like brand new but green. Imagine having it in your hand. Would make you shiver.

Yes, this is an amazing find. I assume that the blade is also bronze. Since bronze does not rust like ferric materials we have a much better level of preservation.
Here are the photos. you never know when a website page will go dead. |

The arrow heads (projectile points to some people) design & execution is exception alas well. Could fit well in a modern catalogue.

OMG! What an exceptional find! I am in awe of the perfect condition which the environment has preserved this find... the loose teeth from the skull is a nice touch to the photos too... he must have been an individual of status when considering the precision and quality of the embellished surfaces.
Please keep us up to date with more on this as it unfolds. Gavin |
