In an area where I was two years ago , was very surprised to find fragments of pottery dating from the Bronze Age and a beautiful bronze battle ax dating from the XVI-XIII centuries B.C.This type of ax belongs of Wietenberg culture (was a Bronze Age archeological culture in Central Transylvania , Romania , and it's name was coined after the eponymic Wietenberg Hill near city of Sighișoara). Also on top of a small height , I found an old chain system for hanging the metal pot (kettle) for cooking and/or boiling over an open fire.The way it was done, after twisting to increase strength, clamping rings and the ability to turn around, archaeologists believe it may be celtic (Iron age , La Tene period).It may be so because in the same area two years ago I found a Celtic spear. I also found near these places , the rest of a small XIII-XIV century mediaeval fortification. So there I’ve detected the fortress nails and 3 different types of iron arrowheads.
Enjoy ! :hello:

WoW! Big congrats! :notworthy: Thats an outstanding find in beautiful condition. Any Bronze Age find is more than you can expect, an axe is great, not talking about a battle axe.
I vote Banner on this!

Gorgeous location you've got there without even considering the artifacts. I'd be camping out there weather permitting.
