Antiquated But Efficient

Usually, it’s seen that metal or iron tools rust with time and lose their sharpness if not used regularly. But prolific archeologist Greg Hare discovered over thousand-year-old blades in Yukon that are still sharp enough to spear through any part of the human body in a split second!

Are you wondering why do scientists hunt for such old artifacts? Well, these findings help us to know questions like when did copper metallurgy reach the region. Hare shared that these arrowheads were probably manufactured at the onset of technology in the area to replace throwing darts – an older method also used by other inhabitants ages ago.
