"3000-year-old ceremonial sword unearthed in Germany"

Archaeologists in Germany have discovered a 3000-year-old ceremonial sword that was used in a Bronze Age burial ceremony. The sword, found in Bavaria, is exceptionally rare and has no signs of having been used, suggesting it may have been created for ritualistic purposes. The sword's components were manufactured separately in southern Germany, northern Germany, and Denmark, leading archaeologists to theorize it had been constructed by a wandering artisan.
