A copper axe dating to the 4th-3rd millennium B.C. is the oldest ever discovered in Poland. It may be the oldest copper artifact ever found in Poland. It was found last August at a metal detectorist rally in the town of Matcze in southeastern Poland near the border with Ukraine. The rally was done with the permission of the Lublin Provincial Monument Protection Office‚ and the site was scanned in advance to salvage any archaeological materials while leaving behind more modern objects for the club members to find. The precaution proved ineffective when Krzysztof Gajos discovered a small copper axe. The find location was pinpointed with GPS and the artifact handed over to the Zamość delegation of the Monument Protection Office. The axe has a fan-shaped blade 7.4 cm (3 inches) long‚ 4.1 cm (1.6 inches) wide and 1 cm (.4 inches) thick at the thickest point. Made with a simple casting method that predates the Bronze Age when copper axes became widespread‚ the axe has no comparable example on the archaeological record of Poland. An axe found in the Kiev region of Ukraine is virtually identical‚ however‚ and it was found with pottery fragments that identified it as the work of the Neolithic Cucuteni–Trypillia culture which occupied parts of modern-day Bulgaria‚ Romania‚ Moldova and western Ukraine. “It is true that we have recorded finds of Trypillian culture pottery from Gródek‚ Hrubieszów commune‚ and the presence of this ax in nearby Matcz can be considered as confirmation of the settlement of people of this culture also in eastern Poland‚ at least in the section of the upper Bug. This thesis may also be confirmed by a loose find a similar copper ax in Wożuczyn‚ Rachanie commune‚ Tomaszów poviat‚ about which Dr. Jan Gurba wrote ‚ and which should now be at the Institute of Archeology of the Maria Curie-SkÅ‚odowska University in Lublin‚” commented [the Lublin Provincial Conservator of Monuments]. The axe will be transferred to the StanisÅ‚aw Staszic Regional Museum in Hrubieszów where it will be studied and analyzed further.

Bernie Sanders spotted sprinting back and forth between his three mansions so the squatters he advocates for don't move in. pic.twitter.com/xXJ1MFerou— U.S. Ministry of Truth (@USMiniTru) March 29‚ 2024 “It’s a tough job‚ but someone’s got to do it‚” Sanders was overheard saying as he dashed between his Vermont estate and his Capitol Hill townhouse. “I’m just doing my part to keep the riff-raff out of these beautiful homes.” While some may find Sanders’ dedication to squatter prevention endearing‚ others have criticized his methods‚ calling them hypocritical. After all‚ the senator has long been a proponent of affordable housing and income equality. “It’s ironic that a man who claims to fight for the poor is so hell-bent on keeping them out of his own homes‚” remarked one political commentator. “I guess even the most well-intentioned politicians can have their blind spots.” Despite the backlash‚ Sanders remains committed to his unusual exercise regimen‚ determined to keep his mansions squatter-free. In a recent statement‚ he said‚ “I will continue to sprint between my properties to ensure that they are not occupied by anyone other than myself and my family. After all‚ a man’s home is his castle‚ and I intend to protect mine at all costs.” In the meantime‚ neighbors have reported seeing Sanders running back and forth between his three mansions‚ often in his signature disheveled attire.  The post Bernie Sanders spotted sprinting back and forth between his 3 mansions so the squatters he advocates for don’t move in appeared first on Genesius Times.
