Ancient Bronze Sword Found in Germany ‘Still Shines’ After 3,400 Years

In Germany, an ancient Bronze-Age sword has been discovered, astonishingly retaining a somewhat shiny appearance even after the passage of three thousand four hundred years since its creation.

Discovered in the burial site of a man near the town of Nördlingen, the sword is believed to have been crafted from bronze using the most advanced techniques available during the 14th century BCE.

Unlike early swords and long knives from the Homeric Bronze Age in Greece, which were cast from a single mold like a bronze statue, the Nördlingen weapon was made by casting the hilt onto the preexisting blade.

Within the grave, the remains of a man, a boy, and a woman were found alongside bronze arrowheads and other artifacts, the Good News Network has reported.
