In Depth

The megalodon was a prehistoric shark species that existed approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago, renowned for its enormous size—estimated to be up to 18 meters long. As an apex predator, it dominated ancient oceans and is believed to have preyed on large marine animals like whales, although it went extinct likely due to climate changes and a reduction in suitable prey.

A palstave axe is a type of Bronze Age cutting implement, featuring a broad blade and a side loop to facilitate hafting. Commonly found across Europe and especially notable in the British Isles, these axes were both utilitarian tools and symbolic items, often buried as grave goods or votive offerings.

The bearded axe, often associated with Vikings, is a type of axe featuring an elongated lower blade edge that extends below the width of the butt, creating a "beard" shape. This design allowed for a more precise and versatile cutting edge, useful for both combat and woodworking tasks, making it an iconic tool and weapon in Norse culture.

Ancient weaponry encompasses a wide range of offensive and defensive tools used in various civilizations, from Bronze Age swords and bows to Roman gladii and medieval crossbows. These weapons were not only instruments of war but also significant cultural symbols, often reflecting technological advancements, tactical ingenuity, and societal values.

Roman jewellery served both decorative and functional purposes, crafted from a variety of materials including gold, silver, and gemstones. Popular items included rings, necklaces, and brooches, which were worn by both men and women and often carried inscriptions or featured intricate designs reflecting religious or cultural significance.
