Dazzling ancient bronze sword found in Germany
By Laurence Peter????????????? BBC News
German archaeologists are thrilled to have dug up a Bronze Age sword more than 3,000 years old which is extraordinarily well preserved.
德國考古學(xué)家興奮于挖掘出一把距今至少3000年的保存完好的青銅時代劍。
The bronze sword with an octagonal hilt was found in a grave in the southern town of N?rdlingen. It is thought to be from the late 14th Century BC.
這把具有八角柄的青銅劍是在諾德林根南部城鎮(zhèn)的一座墳?zāi)怪邪l(fā)現(xiàn)的，它被認為來自于公元前14世紀晚期。
Its condition is so good "it almost still shines", Bavaria's State Office for Monument Protection (BLfD) says.
巴伐利亞州古跡保護辦公室（BLfD）說，它的狀況非常好，“幾乎仍然閃閃發(fā)光”。
The grave contains the bones of a man, woman and boy, and other bronze items.
墳?zāi)估镞€有一個男人，一個女人和一個男孩的骨骼，以及其他青銅器物。
The archaeologists are not sure whether the three were related, and the rarity of the find raises questions about the sword's origin.
考古學(xué)家們不確定這三人是否有血緣關(guān)系，并且這項發(fā)現(xiàn)之稀有，引出關(guān)于這把劍來歷的許多疑問。
The BLfD says manufacturing such a sword was complicated, as the hilt was cast on to the blade. The N?rdlingen sword does not appear to have been used in anger, but it is believed to have been a real weapon, not just ornamental.
BLfD說，制作這樣一把劍是復(fù)雜的，因為劍柄是被鑄栽了劍刃上。這把諾德林根劍似乎并沒有被憤怒地使用，但它被認為是把真正的武器，而非裝飾品。
