On a hill in an oak forest, next to an old road, I discovered some iron tools. It is about 3 sickles of different sizes and an instrument consisting of 5 claws arranged according to the anatomy of the hand, including the position of the "thumb" in relation to the palm, extended with a rod. At the opposite end it's widened with a small bent point, and it’s seen that there was an iron circle holding something, probably a wooden handle. The third scythe, appeared after the identification of the first pieces, positioned under them, being later recovered. It seems to be a meat fork, from the Iron Age, and together with the sickles, they are all of Dacian origin, archaeologists say, from the 1st century BC. - 1st century AD. Just a few meters away, in the circumference, at different points, 6 different types of iron arrows appeared. I don't know if they have the same context as the tools, which are about 17 meters from the old road, which was used in various historical periods. At a considerable distance, also from that road, there appeared twisted arrowheads, medieval spurs with a wheel, a knife handle, a fork, iron fire starters. Pins 1 and 5 of the claw fork were basically "glued" just for the picture, they are actually separated due to corrosion over time. The objects were photographed on the ruler as well as after recovery, the pictures being edited to dimensions in millimeters. So long my friends !
