    Well done "H" , any day you find a hammered is a good day, but a gold one is an excellent day. Once again well done.

    hammered

    Because it's always hammer time

    Great finds.
    Det vi vet er så uendelig lite mot det som har hendt. Arkeologen er som den som går langs en strand og finner småtterier, skyllet i land fra et forsvunnet skib. Men selve skibet som gikk i dypet med menneskene får han aldri se.
