An exceptionally rare Bronze Age sword was discovered by archaeologists in 2023 in an old German burial site.
The weapon, believed to be 3,000 years old, was dug up in the small town of Nordlingen
Experts were shocked it was so well preserved that it actually shined, despite laying in a grave of three people.
Despite its age, the sword's zig-zag pattern is still completely visible, punctuated with studs and rivets.
