Near areas that we detected almost 2 years at a distance of about 200 m north-east , we found a small height of land that thought it could be a small ancient tower defense or maybe an ancient workshop. I started researching the small area and we found a bunch of pieces of barbed wire probably during WW1, WW2. Suddenly I had a very strong signal with my GTI 2500 elliptical coil. I thought I detected an entire roll of barbed wire because the signal starts at about 20-25 inches above the ground. It was a big surprise because I found 6 blacksmith iron tools and an iron axe at a depth of about 24-25 inches.
Nobody knows exactly who hid them there but these tools are similar to those Dacian.
After the Dacian wars of the Emperor Trajan in 101-102 AD and 105-106 AD , part of Decebalus Dacian kingdom came under Roman control and the Romans was stopped in these areas.
It is very close to the area controlled by the Romans and it's possible native Dacian peoples who lived in those areas until 106 AD when he came Roman administration, have hidden those tools and be left free by the Romans in other areas. Tools are : two different anvils , one of pyramid type and the other one in the form of "T" , a tool to make signs (marking tool) , a battle ax , a hammer , two pliers, the first to handle round objects and the second to handle flat objects , and finally an iron battle axe.
Here are the pictures of these fantastic objects , where for a better understanding of their size, I wrote dimensions in millimeters.

Never seen or heard from hidden tools like these...
I have heard of smelters hoards, but they are usually broken pieces to be smelted down and reused, these seem complete ready to be reused, perhaps buried before battle, great find 
...Oh yes banner.
