            Early Bronze Age sword found

            An Early Bronze age sword (pictured) made of bronze was found at random on Saturday, November 2, 2019, Rychnov museum archaeologist Martina Bekova said on Thursday, November 7, 2019, in Rychnov nad Kneznou, Czech Republic. The weapon is decorated with a simple engraved line around the blade, still sharp as a razor, Bekova said, calling the find exceptional. The bronze grip tongue sword is dated to around 1200 B.C. It is part of the Lusatian culture. The finds of this culture are numerous in eastern Bohemia, but it is not so in the case of swords, Bekova said. (CTK Photo/David Tanecek)
