Useful when it’s useful
This lovely bronze age sword appeared in my Twitter today, with no further information. No link or nothing. I don’t believe anything without a link nowadays (and probably not even then, once everything is written by AI).
But speaking of AI, someone asked if the sword was real, and Grok found the article.
AI taketh away and AI giveth. Good weekend, all!

Those arrowheads look to be in excellent shape too (see the link)
That’s probably the woman’s sword, according to experts on something they didn’t know existed yesterday.
the Man’s sword was probably bigger…..
did no one have Cathrine O’Hara? And only 71, that doesn’t make me happy…..
