At a distance of 14 meters west of the edge of an old road, in an oak forest, I discovered a bronze deposit consisting of 2 sickles with a hook and a Transylvanian-type ax, dating from the Late Bronze Age, about the 14th century - 13 BC The 2nd sickle (26 cm deep), appeared after the identification of the first one (24 cm deep), positioned under it in the same position, and the ax also in the lower sedimentary layer, on the north side (26-27 cm deep). I tried to capture the stages of careful extraction of the parts as much as the darkness allowed, with only a headlamp. And this time the objects were photographed with a ruler, both in situ and after recovery, the pictures being edited to dimensions in millimeters. So long my friends !
