Pop Iuliu-Cristinel 43 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) Hello I found this interesting forum by chance, looking for information about an ancient object, dolabra, the roman pickaxe.I was pleasantly surprised to find on the forum, the picture of the dolabra discovered by me, after which Mr. Kris Lipinski made a successful replicas.I am interested in history and I consider myself an archeology enthusiast.I understood that they would appreciate images of some artefacts discovered, especially if they have dimensions, for those who would like to build replicas.I made a selection of several objects that also have dimensions, if anyone is interested... 1.) Scythian dagger-knife (akinakes), 6th century BC 2.) Iron spearhead (dacian or celtic), 2nd-1st centuries BC Edited November 19, 2019 by Pop Iuliu-Cristinel Link to post Share on other sites

Is this a Roman town site? All these artifacts were taken to the museum according to the law. I discovered them in places that archaeologists didn't know. They knew only after my discoveries that those places are hiding ancient traces... Link to post Share on other sites
