Thanks for sharing. For someone stealing pictures you did amazingli well, Radu. Are there more Dacian and early Medieval weapons? I just want to compare them to Thracian and early Medieval finds in Bulgaria.

I loved the 1st picture especially.Imagine stimulating. Transilvanya. Vlad Dracul's land and foggy atmoshphere, historical building and birds. or.. can be bats??

Radu, bun venit spate prietenul meu.

Great photos, thanks for sharing! Do you have any information on that short sword with the flamboyant blade? Ceremonial?
