Archaeologists started excavations along a highway in Løsning , Denmark , as part of a road expansion project.

Archaeologists unearthed “ close to 200 weapons,” a “very rare” chainmail shirt and other items from the Iron Age.

The items were buried by a chieftain as a "sacrifice" or “an offering to higher powers”.
