Treasure hunters in Poland, part of the Denar Kalisz group, have unearthed a significant cache of medieval artifacts. The discovery includes 631 items, predominantly silver coins, along with a remarkably preserved 1,800-year-old Roman gold necklace, found contained within clay pots. This find offers a glimpse into the region's rich historical past.
Concurrently, Israeli archaeologists announced the discovery of ancient gold at the Hyrcania archaeological site in the Judean Desert. The treasure, found at a former Christian monastery dating back to the Byzantine era, consists of two gold coins bearing the image of Heraclius and a delicate gold ring. These artifacts miraculously survived approximately 1,400 years, despite the site's vulnerability.
