Treasure Hunt all over the World
Chapter 2988: Ancient Roman Armory
After all, the physical strength of several archaeologists was limited. After digging down less than three meters, they were exhausted. Several Israeli exploration team members took over and continued to dig down.
Fortunately, this hill is mainly composed of sand and soil. It is not a granite peak. There are relatively few stones, so it is not that difficult to excavate.
On the other side, after more than half an hour of drilling, Jack and the others finally made the first cave.
The cave is not too deep, only about four meters. Jack and the others stopped drilling when they were less than ten centimeters away from the metal objects.
The diameter of the cave is only about eight centimeters, and only some miniature exploration equipment can be hung in to explore the deep underground conditions before deciding on the next action.
As for Ye Tian and several archaeologists, they squatted on the ground, carefully studying the soil that drilled out of the mountain.
Fortunately, this is the Nile Valley, not the depths of the Sahara Desert. The soil drilled from this cave is relatively moist, not dry sand, and it will be scattered when the wind is blowing!
"Steven, based on the past archaeological data around Thebes, it is basically certain that these metal objects at a depth of about four meters underground were buried during Roman rule. We can analyze it from the composition of the soil..."
An archaeologist pointed to the soil on the ground that had just been taken out from the depths of the ground and said, introducing Ye Tian the conditions of the soil layers in various periods.
In fact, Ye Tian knows better than anyone, what is buried under his feet, and he also knows what era the metal objects in the depths of the earth came from, what they are, how valuable they are, and so on.
Knowing that Gui knows, but he can't resort to his mouth. The performance that should be done is still indispensable, even if it wastes a lot of time and energy, a lot of costs are required.
In addition to the metal objects that Jack and the others discovered, in other places on the top of the mountain, everyone has also explored some metal objects buried deep underground, but they are scattered.
Ye Tian checked those places one by one, and the corresponding detection data.
After some analysis, he ruled out the possibility that the metal objects are treasures, more likely to be ancient weapons or agricultural implements, or even funerary objects, and they are funerary objects of civilians, which are of no excavation value.
Only these metal objects discovered by Jack and the others are relatively concentrated, which is worth continuing to explore and study.
Ye Tian and the others were studying the soil data, Jack and the others had hung a miniature camera and a flashlight into the cave to investigate the situation deep underground.
After a while, the situation in the depths of the cave appeared on the monitoring screen.
What everyone sees is a relatively dense soil, as if it has been deliberately pressed, rather than a secret underground space.
Seeing this situation, Ye Tian first thought about it for a moment before he said his judgment.
" Judging from the compactness of this piece of soil, it seems that it has been rammed. Based on this analysis, these metal objects may be buried under a collapsed earth wall, or they may be buried in a tomb.
Jack, you hang up the camera first, and then continue to drill. This time you drill directly through the soil to see what these metal objects are, whether they are ancient weapons, or gold and silver treasures, but be more careful."
"Understand, Steven, we will be careful not to damage those metal objects as much as possible"
Jack nodded in response, and then acted.
In less than five minutes, the seven or eight centimeters of soil was successfully drilled through.
The moment the drill touched the metal objects deep underground, Jack and the others immediately stopped drilling and successfully avoided destroying those metal objects.
Then, the miniature camera was hung into the cave again to detect what the metal objects were deep underground.
This time, what appeared on the monitor screen was a rusty spearhead, and the edge of a shield was also rusty.
Seeing this picture, everyone can't help but feel a little disappointed.
The answer has been released. The metal objects buried more than four meters deep underground are obviously some ancient weapons, and their location may be an armory in ancient times!
Analyzed from the soil layer and shape, it should be an ancient weapon buried during the ancient Roman rule of Egypt!
Although these ancient Roman weapons are also antique cultural relics and have a certain collection value, for Ye Tian and the tripartite joint exploration team, there is not much excavation value, and they can only be left to the Egyptians!
After confirming this point, Ye Tian asked Jack and the others to end the exploration of this point, to explore the batch of metal objects buried at a depth of more than seven meters underground, and see what those metal objects were!
Next, Jack and the others changed one person and continued to explore the cave.
Ye Tian, they left here and returned to the excavation site on the other side to see the progress there.
When they came here, the stone pillar buried in the mountain had been dug out nearly four meters, but it still stood in the big hole on the top of the mountain.
The stone pillar was covered with sand, completely covering the words and patterns carved on the stone pillar, so that everyone could not see what was on the stone pillar.
came to the entrance of the pit, Ye Tian looked at the situation of the stone pillars and the progress of the excavation, and then said to the two Israeli exploration team members who were digging at the bottom of the pit:
"For the sake of safety, you first come up, and then push this ancient stone pillar to see if it can be pushed. If you can't push it, it means it is deeply buried and has a strong foundation. Then you will continue to dig!
If this stone pillar can be pushed, it means that it is about to dig to the root. Safety measures must be taken before you can continue digging. Otherwise, accidents will easily occur. I don't want to see that happen! "
"Okay, Steven, we will come up right away"
The two Israeli explorers responded together, and then climbed up from the bottom of the pit.
Next, they pushed the thick stone pillar.
as predicted!
The stone pillar swayed a little bit, but UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not fall down, indicating that it is not far from digging to the root. If you dig a little further, the stone pillar may fall!
After confirming this, everyone immediately began to take safety measures. A safety rope was tied to the top of the stone pillar and pulled to one side.
In this way, the exploration team digging at the bottom of the pit, as long as they avoid this side.
Two Israeli exploration team members entered the bottom of the pit again and continued to dig.
About half an hour later, this ancient and mysterious stone pillar was completely dug out.
This is an ancient stone pillar about five meters high. The top diameter is only about 30 centimeters, but the bottom diameter exceeds 80 centimeters. The total weight is estimated to be no less than ten tons.
Looking at this ancient stone pillar still stuck in the pit, everyone was very excited and had a hard time!
How did you get this thing out of the pit? This is the top of the mountain, not the flat ground under the mountain. The crane can't get up at all. It's almost impossible to drag it out by manpower!
More importantly, this stone pillar is very likely to be an invaluable treasure. It is of great research value. It must not be dragged by force. Pulling it out with brute force is likely to cause irreversible huge losses!
Just when everyone was in trouble, Ye Tian had already figured out a solution.
That is to use the combination winch, put the winch on the stone pillar, and then cooperate with the manpower to pull out this ancient stone pillar little by little!
