Among the artifacts recovered, two special finds stand out: a gold ring with an image of Christ and a crystal amulet with engravings.

Swedish researchers have found more than 30,000 artifacts left from the medieval period during excavations in the city of Kalmar, NV reports.

This unique project, carried out for two years by researchers from the State Historical Museum, shed light on the daily life of people for approximately 400 years, from 1250 to 1650.

Among the artifacts recovered, two special finds stand out: a gold ring with an image of Christ and a crystal amulet with engravings. The gold ring, dating back to the 15th century, is a unique example of jewelry art. Decorated with the face of Christ, the owner probably lost it, and has survived to this day in perfect condition. A crystal talisman known as an alsengem, with three carvings, is an important testimony to medieval religious and mystical practices.

The excavations also uncovered many other artifacts, including weapons and items related to the Kalmar War of 1611, in which the city was attacked by the Danes. In addition, archaeologists discovered the ruins of houses, streets, bathrooms and other elements of daily consumption, making it possible to recreate the lifestyle of medieval Kalmar.

This project not only expanded our understanding of the city’s medieval past, but also demonstrated the importance of archaeological research in the study of history. Historians’ next steps include analyzing new data and continuing to study artifacts to complete the picture of life in medieval Kalmar.

Let’s recall that during the excavations in the Belsky settlement, in the Poltava region, archaeologists found a women’s burial with gold objects and dishes, which is more than two thousand years old, and may belong to the Scythians.
