Hello buddies
My last hunt this past week. I walked back to the village in the mountains. A quiet place with just 3 neighbors and a dozen houses of different eras but with an average age of 200 years surrounded by orchards, pastures and oak forest. It is inhabited by many wild animals, the largest wild boar, deer, roe deer, wolves, bears. Right now there are 3 bears in this area, with a population of 75 to Spain is not bad. There are also foxes, badgers, martens, martens, squirrels and many birds. The man has been here established more than 2000 years. 1 hour walk there is a Cantabrian castro of the iron age, abandoned since the arrival of the Romans. There are naming this village written in 1100 AD.
Well, I came to the village in the afternoon and after greeting all the neighbors personally and my friend the owner of the house where I stay I set out to find. Owner had permission to enter a property used for pastures. The owner has small apartments for rent and near them a very old building.
I stayed there until sunset, almost two hours. Lots of trash. Many small iron always discriminate. A toy car, very ugly. A coin resealed in 1652 with value of 4 maravedís quite well.
Two more coins, in very poor condition. Very difficult to identify.
The evening devoted to rest, dinner with two friends and a little wine and a little rum, and much talk and laugh and much more rum.
In the morning I returned to the same place. Forget headphones in the car. I did not want to look back. I walked away from the apartments to not disturb. The morning was beautiful. The sun was shining at half power. The flies began to flit through my head like a swarm. They not posed that sprayed me with insect repellent but did not stop buzzing in my ears (no headphones).
I do not know how long I was, but when I burned the eighth cigarette smoke was over I had to go.
An iron ring of some herding a wagon. A buckle. Some coins in disrepair.
A part of a brass lamp.
Two shotgun shells for hunting. The clamp screw a scythe.
An ax, iron, broken, strange, weird. The eye is missing. Weighs 200 grams. I searched online but there is little solid information.
I found this photo of a ax in a similar way. It was found in Ireland, in a river. It dates from the year 100/200 AD.
Other pages consulted indicate that it is a kind of hatchet, from the early Middle Ages, to the seventh / eighth century.
At the beginning of my hobby, I found 500 meters another similar piece.
I think it's important to inform the regional museum.
Finally, this small badge of the religious order of the Passionist Fathers is the result of the previous hunting but due to its small size I was forgotten in the pocket of working trousers. Black shield with white cross and a heart inside which are incised the words "JESUXPI PASSIO" and the three nails.
thanks for watching
