In similar news, Briefly News recently reported on a few Israeli youths who, on Tuesday, August 18, dug up hundreds of gold coins that were buried in a clay vessel for more than a thousand years.
Reuters reports that the Israel Antiquities Authority confirmed that volunteering teenagers at an excavation discovered them at a site where a new neighbourhood was about to be built.
“The person who buried this treasure 1,100 years ago must have expected to retrieve it and even secured the vessel with a nail so that it would not move. We can only guess what prevented him from returning to collect this treasure,” Liat Nadav-Ziv, the excavation director said.
As at the time of writing this report, nobody knows the owner of the treasure as Oz Cohen, one of the volunteers, said that the discovery was really amazing.
