Yes forgot to mention
These are spear tips and one dart.
Refer to the Scythians.
Material from wikipedia.
Scythians (ancient Greek Σκύθης, Σκύθοι, self-name: Skolotoi [1]) - ancient Iranian-speaking [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] people that existed in the VIII c. BC e. - IV c. n E. [9]. Scythians had no written language [10], only a few words are known from their language [11].

A part of the Scythians lived in the steppe zone of the Northern Black Sea region from the Danube to the Don, referred to in ancient Greek sources as Scythia [12]. Many tribes and nations were both in union with the Scythians and hostile to them.

About Scythians are known from the works of ancient authors (such as Herodotus, Hippocrates, Pliny the Elder, Zhang Qian), archaeological excavations and genetic research.

The people related to the Scythians were Savromats (Sarmatians) [13], Sakas and Massagets.

Hello Forest. You have some great finds. Your land looks much like here in the middle U.S.A., rolling hills and some woods. Good luck.

 

[WG2020]

ласкаво просимо до tnet, you have a great assortment of very nice finds. Looking forward to seeing more from you in the coming months. If you ever need a detecting partner, I would like to volunteer lol - it has been awhile since I had the good fortune to visit Ukraine.

Hello.
I am from the eastern part of Ukraine.
With respect.

 

[Forest Mosquito]

Thank you all for your kind and friendly words.
We have a really interesting story.
On the territory of Ukraine, there lived many tribes and nations.
Passed big trade routes.
But to find something ancient and interesting is not so simple.
There are expeditions, without a single find.
But yesterday, I managed to find such an ancient ax.



And the result of yesterday's hunt.

Good luck to all and correctly finds

what do you do to preserve your metal finds

 

[Plumbata]

I love your finds, thank you for sharing them with us! I greatly enjoy collecting artifacts from Ukraine, the ancient history and many cultures are very interesting to me. Do you hunt in the Carpathian/Pannonian Basin region of Western Ukraine? Many wonderful ancient treasures come from the Celtic cultures which inhabited the region.

what do you do to preserve your metal finds

Findings from ancient iron, I mechanically clean.
Brush various nozzles for the engraver
to remove rust growths.
before that I soak in distilled water to remove the salt.
Then dry land to remove moisture, and then I canservize with wax.
Ie I boil it in boiling wax until the bubbles disappear from the object.
bronze objects do not require this, the patina does not allow them to collapse.
if you are interested I can, how will free time appear
make a photo report on the restoration

I am engaged in search in the North-East of Ukraine.
In the Kharkiv region in the pool Don.
also in Poltava and Sumy regions.
We have very many peoples lived. And the Goths as well.

Hello.
There is a time.
I decided to take a photo report on the restoration
recently found Scythian spear.
After soaking in distilled water
A spear looks like this.
Not really prizentabelny,
is not it?

After pre-cleaning and removal of large growths.
Removed with the help of the engraver and various attachments.

After final cleaning.
And shlifovashiya
It turned out such a result.

Now cook in wax.
As you can see from the subject are bubbles.
and this is good.
Removes excess moisture and air.

After all the manipulations done.
* we get this result.

Hello, friends
got out to search.
The result is not rich.
But it also happens.
The tip of the Scythian time of bronze.
We call them in slang

And the tip of iron since Kievan Rus.

Good luck to everyone and the right finds.
