The largest bistophan coin rock found in Bosnia –

A group of unprecedented rare double-conical ingots was found in Tolisa near the border with Croatia, northeastern Bosnia and the Sava River in Herzegovina. The shape of this ingot can be traced back to the beginning of the Lathai culture and the Roman era, and was very rare in the Balkans in the second or first century B.C. In Bosnia, there is only another example in Croatia, and in Slovenia there are no more than three. They are often found in France and Germany, but they are still so rare that the large number found in Sava exceeds the total number of all such gots known in Europe.

The first glimpse of the excavator underwater was caught by local history enthusiasts. He took pictures and sent them to the director of the Vicovchi Municipal Museum in Croatia, who considered them important artifacts. Archaeologists at the Franciscan Relics Museum worked with underwater archaeologists in Croatia to investigate and investigate once the water level dropped.

The team discovered hundreds of plasticine, making the site the richest source in European history.

Depending on location and environment, researchers believe that iron cargo could sink due to river accidents — perhaps due to natural disasters or conflicts, and that heavy objects have been stored in sediments for hundreds of years.

To create detailed 3D models of the site finding, archaeologists used mapping and photogrammetry techniques and raised each item, described and kept in distilled water.

To trace the origins of iron, scientists plan to study the chemical composition of artifacts. This will help to map the ancient trade routes that might link Bosanska Posavina to Central Europe. […]

This discovery not only reveals the role of the Sava River in ancient trade, but also elevates Bosanska Posavina to a critical position in prehistoric economic history. The researchers believe that the finding may reconsider the significance of the region in a broader context of European archaeology.
