Chapter 3232: Strange Ancient Roman Artifacts

After an intermediate stop, several divers who went into the sea to explore also successfully reached the bottom of the sea.

They quickly found the mark left by Peake yesterday, and then used it as a starting point to continue their exploration.

At this time, the seabed has become quite flat, basically equivalent to an undersea plain.

After exploring not far east, several divers arrived at the eastern edge of the warning zone, but found nothing.

And the terrain here has also changed, with a gradual upward trend.

Obviously, the eastern **** of the seamount ends here.

Seeing this situation, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

“Guys, you can end the exploration of the eastern slope. Now you return to the mountain on the seabed and explore the northern **** of that mountain.

“Guys, you can end the exploration of the east slope. You can now return to the mountain on the bottom of the sea and explore the northern **** of that mountain.

The hillside to the north is relatively steep. When exploring, you must pay attention to safety, control your diving speed, and work closely with small submarines."

The next moment, the divers on the seabed responded.

"Understood, Steven, don't worry, we know what to do"

Then, several divers changed direction and, driven by the diving propeller, swam towards the seamount in the center of the warning zone.

The small submarine also moved accordingly, turning around and heading towards the seamount.

In a short time, they had returned to the top of the underwater mountain.

After another decompression stop, several divers swam to the north of the mountain to start a new round of exploration.

Soon, the time came to around ten o'clock in the morning.

The several divers exploring the seabed have changed their oxygen bottles and explored a large area.

Unfortunately, there were no surprising findings.

Although they also scanned a few metal objects, those metal objects are not treasures. They are just things that people left intentionally or unintentionally on the seabed, and they have no value.

Although they also scanned several metal objects, those metal objects are not treasures. They are just things that people intentionally or unintentionally left on the seabed, and have little value.

In addition, they also discovered several caves, large or small, deep or shallow.

However, after exploration by a small underwater robot, it was discovered that there was nothing in those caves except the marine life living in them.

At this time, several divers had dived to a depth of about 60 meters.

Ye Tian, who was staying in the cabin of the Brave and Fearless, first looked at the depth data, thought for a moment, then picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Guys, this hillside should be almost at the bottom. The maximum depth here should be about 80 meters. In other words, if you dive another 20 meters, you will reach the bottom.

In the next exploration process, you no longer need to check the situation in those caves. You only need to scan the seabed with an underwater metal detector to see if you can find anything.

In the era when the Black Baron lived, there was no diving equipment, let alone oxygen bottles. No matter how good the water quality was, it was almost impossible to dive to this depth.

What's more, they had to hide the boxes filled with gold and silver treasures, which would have required a lot of time at the bottom of the sea. In that backward era, it was even more impossible.

What's more, they had to hide the boxes filled with gold and silver treasures, which would require staying at the bottom of the sea for a long time. In that backward era, it was even more impossible.

So it is impossible for them to hide pirate treasures in caves of this depth. The gold and silver treasures scattered when the mountain collapsed due to earthquakes, if any, are all on the hillside."

"Copy that, Steven"

The diver leading the team replied and made an OK gesture.

Everyone in the cabin of the Brave and Fearless also nodded.

Immediately afterwards, Yahya asked curiously:

"Stephen, what you said does make sense. At the beginning of the 18th century when the Black Baronet lived, there was indeed no deep-diving equipment, and it was difficult for people to dive to the deep seabed.

"Steven, what you said does make sense. At the beginning of the 18th century when the Black Baronet lived, there was indeed no deep-diving equipment, and it was difficult for people to dive to the deep seabed.

In this case, where do you think Black Baron Roberts would hide the pirate treasure he snatched? Approximately what depth? How can we find other treasures? ”

With his words, everyone looked at Ye Tian, looking forward to his answer.

Ye Tian did not respond immediately, but thought for a moment and then said with a smile:

"According to my speculation, this mountain peak located on the seabed not only collapsed during the Lisbon earthquake in the mid-18th century, but also sank a lot downwards.

According to the diving conditions at the beginning of the 18th century, no matter how good the water quality was, the men of the black baronet could not dive too deep, even if they could use air bags to assist them.

When hiding gold and silver treasures, you have to stay in the sea for a period of time, plus the time required to dive and surface, as well as the damage that may be caused by the huge water pressure.

There is also the convenience of extracting treasures in the future. Based on these conditions, the Black Baron is most likely to hide the pirate treasures on a mountain top thirty meters above the sea.

It’s just that the Lisbon earthquake caused the upper half of the mountain peak close to the sea to collapse, and the mountain peak subsided significantly, so it is so deep.

If my speculation is correct, then the pirate treasure of the Black Baron probably fell to the bottom of the sea with the collapsed mountain, but I don’t know where it is.

As for the two boxes hidden in the cave on the east hillside, it is estimated that they were not far from the sea originally, but they are only at their current depth due to overall subsidence."

Ye Tian's explanation immediately aroused everyone's interest.

Next, everyone began to discuss where the Black Baron's pirate treasure was left on the seabed, as well as the specific reasons for the subsidence of the mountain on the seafloor, as well as the extent of the subsidence, and other topics.

While he was talking, Nick's voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie.

"Stephen, we have cleaned up the collapsed stones and slabs in the underground chamber of the ancient Roman Senate. Next, it is time to clean up the treasure. I don’t know what we will find."

Following his words, everyone immediately looked at the video footage of the cleaning scene of the treasures of the ancient Roman Senate in the ruins of Shela.

Ye Tian casually enlarged the video screen, picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Well done, Nick, please continue to clean up this Senate treasure. I hope you will find surprising discoveries, but you still have to be careful and pay attention to safety"

At the same time as he said these words, an exploration team member standing at the bottom of the big pit at the site of cleaning up the treasures of the Senate in Shela Ruins had already picked up something from the mud at the bottom of the pit.

The nearly round thing was covered with mud, and it was unclear what it was for the time being.

And the thing looked very heavy, and it took some effort for the exploration team member to pick it up.

Immediately afterwards, the exploration team member put the thing into the hanging basket and was hoisted to the ground.

Seeing this scene, everyone was excited and full of expectations.

In the blink of an eye, that thing was placed on a long table seven or eight meters away from the pit entrance.

It was only then that everyone could clearly see the general outline of the thing.

It seemed to be a sculptured head, which was basically the same size as a normal human head. The outline of the mouth, nose and other organs could be seen, but the outline was not very clear.

What is strange is that this head sculpture seems to be wearing a helmet, and the outline of the helmet is very clear.

Ye Tian looked at this thing carefully and then said through the intercom:

Gukao

"Nick, this should be the head fragment of an ancient Roman general sculpture, or a head sculpture, but it is unknown which ancient Roman general was specifically carved.

Rinse the mud off this head sculpture with water. When rinsing, you must be careful to avoid damaging this historic antique artifact as much as possible."

"Understood, Steven, leave this to us"

Nick responded confidently and immediately took action.

Immediately afterwards, they began to wash away the mud on the head sculpture with water.

In order to protect this antique cultural relic as much as possible, they did not pour water from top to bottom. Instead, they used a watering can to spray water while gently wiping it with a towel, very gently.

During this period, several more items were excavated from the large pit by the exploration team and transferred to the surface.

Without exception, these items were all covered with mud, and the original appearance was unclear for a while. They needed to be cleaned carefully to see clearly what they were.

After a while, the head sculpture was cleared out.

As Ye Tian expected, it was the head fragment of an ancient Roman general sculpture.

However, the nose, mouth and other parts of this avatar were smashed, making it difficult to identify who this ancient Roman general was.

On the outside of this head sculpture, he wears a bronze, typical helmet of an ancient Roman general.

This ancient bronze helmet is already rusty, but it is relatively well preserved and does not appear to have much damage.

Obviously, the collapse of the underground chamber caused by the Lisbon earthquake did not cause much damage to the bronze helmet, which has to be said to be a miracle.

The moment he saw this bronze helmet, Ye Tian couldn't help but be stunned.

Then he said excitedly:

“This is the first time I have seen this kind of sculpture of an ancient Roman general. Why didn’t this ancient Roman sculptor directly carve a general’s helmet on the stone?

Why did he make a helmet out of bronze and put it on the sculpture of an ancient Roman general? Isn’t this unnecessary? This approach is really weird”

With his words, Professor Paul and the others also discovered this problem.

The next moment, everyone started talking about it.

"It's really like this. I've never seen a sculpture of an ancient Roman general in this shape. This is the first time I've seen it. It's really strange."

Professor Paul said in surprise, confused.

Before he finished speaking, David continued:

"This ancient bronze helmet seems to fit perfectly with the marble head sculpture. If you take off this bronze helmet, will the head have no ears?"

Ye Tian nodded slightly, then said with a smile:

"It stands to reason that this should be the case, but for the sake of protecting antique cultural relics, we cannot take off this ancient bronze helmet yet. We must study it carefully and then find a way to take it off.

I have never seen such an ancient Roman sculpture before. For this reason alone, this sculpture of the head of an ancient Roman general has high research value. This antique artifact may allow us to see a different ancient Rome.

Since this sculpture of the head of an ancient Roman general came from Rabat, which was once the territory of Carthage, we can also think that this may be the result of the localization of ancient Roman sculpture art.

In fact, in this ancient Roman general head sculpture, in addition to the strong artistic color of ancient Roman sculpture, we can also see a trace of the influence of foreign cultures, but it is not obvious."

"Yes, Steven, this explanation seems to make sense. This may be a product of the combination of ancient Roman culture, Carthage culture, and African culture"

Professor Paul agreed, and the others nodded.

Next, everyone carefully admired the sculpture of the head of an ancient Roman general, and then turned their attention to the second item placed on the table.

This is a metal object deformed by the pressure of slate. It is not big and does not appear to be cracked. It is also covered with mud.

The second item was cleaned very quickly, and the mud on its surface was washed away in a blink of an eye, revealing the underlying color.

Under that layer of mud, there was a dazzling golden light, which made everyone dizzy.

Once everyone got used to the change in light, they discovered it.

This is a gold wine flask in the shape of a clay pot, with a handle on each side and no handle.

On the surface of this gold flask, there is a pattern of the drunken Bacchus, the ancient Roman **** of wine, engraved on the surface, as well as many very exquisite decorations and patterns.

The only pity is that this golden wine flask from ancient Rome has been smashed out of shape, but fortunately it is not broken.

This is gold, which is relatively soft and has good ductility, so it is like this.

If it were replaced by other metals, such as bronze, it would probably have cracked long ago.

When everyone saw this ancient golden jug, they were so shocked that they were stunned for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, there was an excited exclamation from the scene.

"Go ahead! It's actually an ancient Roman gold wine flask. This is so rare and exquisite. There is no doubt that this is definitely a top antique cultural relic and work of art"

"To be honest, I have never seen such a beautiful ancient Roman gold wine flask before. This is the first time I have seen it, and it comes from the Carthage area, which makes it even more special."

While exclaiming, everyone also started talking.

"This ancient Roman gold hip flask seems to be relatively complete and not damaged. It should be possible to restore it to its original state, which would be great"

Professor Paul said excitedly.

Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately smiled and nodded.

"Yes, this ancient Roman gold hip flask should be restored to its original state, but it must be studied carefully and restored carefully without causing damage.

Once it is restored to its original appearance, it will definitely cause quite a stir and will become a top-notch ancient Roman antique cultural relic and work of art."

Everyone admired the ancient Roman gold wine flask for a while, and then looked at the third antique artifact.

Just as Nick was about to wash away the mud on the surface of this antique cultural relic, a burst of ecstatic cheers suddenly came from the bottom of the large pit next to it.

"Wow! There are a lot of ancient Roman gold coins here, they all seem to be gold coins of Emperor Trajan"

With this sound, everyone immediately turned their heads to look at the video screen at the bottom of the pit.

I saw the guy standing at the bottom of the pit holding a gold coin and admiring it intoxicatedly.

He has wiped off the mud on the ancient Roman gold coin. Under the sunlight, the gold coin radiated extremely bright golden light.

Seeing this scene, everyone was very excited.

Ye Tian immediately enlarged the video screen and looked at the gold coin.

The next moment, he gave an affirmative answer.

"Yes, that's Emperor Trajan's gold coin!"
