Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 2868: Well-preserved ancient weapons

Father Harris and the vice-president of St. Catherine’s Monastery discussed in a low voice, and then consulted the Egyptian Deputy Minister of Culture before making a decision.

Like the results expected by the three-party joint exploration team, the St. Catherine's Monastery agreed to excavate and unearth this ancient armory buried deep underground.

However, care must be taken during the excavation process, and the walls of the monastery nearby must not be damaged, and representatives of the Egyptian government and St. Catherine’s Monastery will supervise the site.

As for the excavated ancient weapons, or other antique relics and gold and silver treasures, except for the religious relics, the rest are divided equally between the Egyptian government and the Brave Exploration Company in accordance with the previous agreement.

A considerable part of the half allocated by the Egyptian government will remain in the St. Catherine’s Monastery, which has nothing to do with the tripartite joint exploration team.

Ye Tian was very satisfied with this result, which was exactly what he wanted.

According to the previously stated division of labor, he asked both the Vatican and Israel to come out and form an excavation team to dig the ancient armory deep underground!

The exploration team that discovered this ancient armory, as a representative of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company, stayed on site to supervise, but did not participate in the excavation.

After deciding on the action plan, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent immediately called and contacted their respective people, and soon transferred several exploratory team members into the monastery and formed an excavation team.

Next, Ye Tian told these guys a few more words, and then let them start digging.

When the excavation started, Ye Tian and his party left here, walked to the monastery library, and continued to explore.

Same as when he explored the Church of St. Helena before, Ye Tian also discovered something in this ancient library, but did not tell the discovery, but hid the secret in his heart.

The books collected in the library of St. Catherine’s Monastery are basically religious classics, and many of them are extremely precious and even valuable manuscripts, such as the oldest surviving "Sinai Manuscript" of the Bible.

The secrets hidden in these rare manuscripts, such as the secret letters in the cover interlayer, etc., even if Ye Tian tells these secrets, it is impossible to open the cover of those rare ancient books on the spot to reveal the answer!

More importantly, those secrets are closely related to religion, and have great historical and cultural research value, and even record some important secrets in the history of Christianity. They are almost the same as religious holy artifacts!

Once such a thing is discovered, it will definitely be included in the St. Catherine’s Monastery or the Vatican, and it will never fall into Ye Tian’s hands.

And these things are extremely sensitive, it can be said that they are hot yam, even if they are given to Ye Tian for nothing, he will not ask for it, he doesn't want to worry about it!

Because of this, he didn't tell the secrets hidden in the library, he just pretended to explore it carefully, and then left the library and walked into the adjacent museum!

Like the rare ancient books in the library, each of the ancient paintings, colored paintings, and other antique cultural relics and works of art in this museum is closely related to religion.

At the same time, these antique cultural relics and artworks in the museum also reflect the history and life of the past dynasties in Europe, and almost every piece is a treasure.

The reason why Ye Tian re-entered this museum was more to appreciate the top antique art collections here, rather than to discover the secrets hidden here.

In fact, when he visited this museum for the first time, he discovered something and discovered some secrets hidden in this museum.

Those secrets are also closely related to religion, but they are not Solomon's treasures and the ark. Since he can't get them, he has lost his interest in making them public.

While he admired the top antique artworks, Derek and the others took the pulse metal detector and scanned the walls and ground of the museum thoroughly, but found nothing. There were no hidden metal objects.

It didn't take long for them to explore the museum, and then they came out of the museum, ready to explore the next place.

At this moment, an excited voice suddenly came from the intercom.

"Steven, you'd better come and have a look. We dug up the ancient armory you mentioned. There are indeed many ancient weapons buried in it, and they are in good condition!"

Hearing the announcement, Ye Tian stopped immediately and turned to look at the others on the scene.

The rest of the people also heard the announcement, and everyone's faces showed excitement, and there was still some admiration in their eyes.

Although it was not Solomon’s treasure and the ark, it was also a small surprise, worth celebrating!

What makes everyone admire is Ye Tian's incomparable eyesight and judgment. Each of them secretly admires!

Next, Ye Tian led everyone over the city wall, and everyone's footsteps were unusually brisk.

When they walked to the root of the city wall, seven or eight meters away, they saw a few Roman daggers that had just been cleaned out.

Several archaeologists and historians from Israel, the Vatican, and Egypt are studying carefully with a few Roman daggers, and everyone’s eyes shine straight with excitement.

Due to the extreme drought in the area where the Monastery of St. Catherine is located, and the relatively high altitude, these Roman daggers are kept in a very good condition!

Although buried in the ground for more than a thousand years, the swords of these Roman daggers do not have many traces of rust, and even the handguard on the hilt looks intact!

The gentle **** at the root of the city wall has been excavated at this time, and a large hole about two meters deep has been dug.

The bricks and slabs originally laid on this barren **** were pryed up and moved to the side. Sand and gravel excavated from the ground and wood about to be carbonized were piled up around the big pit and piled up into hills. .

While they were speaking, Ye Tian and his party had come to the edge of the big pit, and they looked towards the bottom of the pit.

At the bottom of this big pit, several exploratory team members from Israel and the Vatican are carefully cleaning out the ancient weapons buried in the sand and ruins.

Looking down from the pit, Ye Tian and the others saw some Roman daggers, shields, spears, and many broken arrows, all buried in sand and ruins, only a small part was exposed.

Like the few Roman daggers that have been unearthed, these ancient weapons buried in the bottom of the pit are in a very good condition. Except for the wooden parts are somewhat carbonized, the metal parts are almost intact!

Seeing this scene, everyone was so excited that they almost cheered.

At this moment, an archaeologist from the Vatican suddenly interjected:

"Steven~www.ltnovel.com~ Your previous inference is very correct. This is indeed an armory. Sometime in ancient times, for some reason, it collapsed and buried the ancient weapons in it. .

In this ancient armory, we found the standard dagger used by the Egyptian army of the Roman Empire, several spears from the early Arab Empire, and other ancient weapons!

This is enough to show that the ancient armory of St. Catherine's Monastery did collapse shortly after the Arabs conquered Egypt, so there were weapons of the Roman Empire and the Arab Empire.

More importantly, these ancient weapons are well preserved and have certain research value. They can be regarded as a batch of very good quality antique weapons that are worth collecting. This is also a surprising discovery! "

With that said, the archaeologist from the Vatican handed the Roman dagger in his hand to Ye Tian.

Ye Tian took this ancient Roman dagger casually and admired it with interest.

Joshua and the Bishop of Kent did the same. They each picked up a handful of ancient weapons that had just been cleared from the bottom of the pit and admired them with great interest!
