Four Exceptionally Preserved Roman Swords Discovered in Dead Sea Cave in Israel

Archaeologists returned to this particular cave near the desert oasis of Ein Gedi to document an inscription found decades earlier. “At the back of the cave, in one of the deepest parts of it, inside a niche, I was able to retrieve that artefact — the Roman pilum head, which came out almost in mint condition,” said Asaf Gayer, an archaeologist with Ariel University.
