3,000-year-old tools to museum
The haul includes axe heads, swords, a spearhead and a sickle.
A man with a metal detector who came across a hoard of prehistoric bronze tools and weapons has handed over his find to the National Museum Wales.
Phil Smith came across the Bronze Age haul on land in Llanbadoc in Monmouthshire and reported his find.
Dating between 1,000 and 800 BC, the haul contains axes, fragments of swords and a spearhead as well knives and harvesting tools.
The 3,000-year-old pieces are being studied by experts.
The treasure was thought to have been buried together in the ground, probably in a small pit, as a ritual gift to the pagan gods of the time. . . . . .
