Are you suggesting weapons migrate?

[Slambat]

metal detectorist?

Is this for real, a detectorist?

Detectorists is a British comedy-drama television series which was first broadcast on BBC Four on 2 October 2014.

I can understand the Britiush actually being able to
call themselves this seriously with a straight face
because they have been nutered for over 400 years.

I guess detectorist’ put the cheese in geek macheesemo.

Can’t wait for carpenterists, accountantist, law enforcmentist and lord help us freeperists.

“... could have been delivered to Wales by sea from southern England...”

"The combination of objects found in this hoard hints at the long-distance sea travel of finished objects during the Late Bronze Age, from southern England and northern France to west Wales,"

I lost my swords in a tragic fishing accident...

Interesting. Would love to see what they looked like when new.

Archaeologists investigating a 2.5-kilogram hoard of sword blades, scabbards and knives.......

Hate to say it, but five and a half pounds don't sound like much of a *hoard*.
