Archaeologists found ancient tools in Spain, ... Archaeologists Found 7,000-Year-Old Treasures—an Incredible Hoard of Human History. Emma Frederickson. August 5, 2024 at 10:30 AM.
The Valsadornín Hoard is a coin hoard from the Roman Hispania period (dated circa 270) found near the town of Valsadornín, in the province of Palencia, Spain. The artifact is a 28 kg kitchen cauldron with a conical bottom, made of thin metal sheets joined by rivets. It originally had two copper-handled rivets, one remaining.
The treasure has been dated to the 8th century BCE, with the exception of the necklace, which is thought to be from 6th century BCE Cyprus. The hoard itself is thought to have been deliberately buried in the 6th century BCE. [5] Two distinct archaeological sites have been found at El Carambolo with the later replacing the first.
The hoard was found in December 1963 by archaeologist José María Soler 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) from Villena, and since then has been the main attraction of Villena's Archaeological Museum. Its discovery was published in most of the Spanish media and also some abroad, mainly in France, Germany and the United States of America.
