Monument protection officials in Lublin County announced that they had discovered a collection of "barbaric" weapons in a state forest in Poland's Hlubyszów region.
The group dates back to Roman times and may be related to the Przeworsk culture, an Iron Age people who lived in the 3rd century BC, the statement said. BC to the millennium BC in the upper Oder and Vistula river basins. Lived in south-central Poland in the 5th century AD.
The cultural decline of the second half of the fifth century coincided with the social crisis that occurred as a result of the invasion of the Huns and the collapse of the Roman world.
Most of the metal objects were made of corroded iron and were found at shallow depths. Archaeologists have so far identified two iron battle axes, two iron chisels, 12 iron spears, and a bladed ax that was probably used for carpentry. "Due to the number, type, type of accumulation and state of preservation of the artifacts, the possibility of a cemetery or private burial is excluded, as no bone or pottery fragments were found indicating a burial pit," Lublin prefecture said.

"What we are dealing with is most likely a weapon used by barbarian tribes in Roman times," said a former excavation in the area that uncovered the tomb of the Przeworsk warriors in Kholodoło. I pointed out that.
Other hypotheses suggest a possible association of this group with the Gothic culture or the Vandals. However, without a thorough investigation, the exact nature of the find and its chronological and cultural relevance remain speculative at this point.
Archaeologists plan to return to the site in the spring to carry out a thorough archaeological investigation.
