In a remarkable discovery, treasure hunters from the group Denar Kalisz have unearthed a treasure trove of 631 medieval artifacts, including silver coins and an invaluable 1,800-year-old Roman gold necklace, in Poland. This significant find sheds light on the region's rich history.
Elsewhere, researchers have recently identified the bodies of Roman warriors found stacked in an ancient water well in Croatia. The study, published in October 2025 in PLOS One, connects the corpses to the Battle of Mursa in 260 AD, a conflict won by Emperor Gallienus against rebel commander Ingenuus. The soldiers, aged 18 to 50, suffered from various injuries, including sword cuts, punctures, and broken bones, indicating they led violent lives.
Additionally, archaeologists in Poland have uncovered ancient graves that reveal a surprising mix of pagan and Christian rituals. This discovery provides a unique glimpse into the region's complex religious and cultural history during that period.
