The analysis that has been done in Spain for the treasury discovered years ago, has revealed that the metal used in some artifacts made 3000 years ago is not of this planet. Day by Day Mail reports say that scientists have made a new analysis about Vilena treasures that found 59 gold -plated things in the treasure found in 1963, two of which have been used in meteorite.
Meteorite iron is the metal that is the remains of the early universe. It is found in meteorites made of iron and nickel. The team of scientists believes that the gold coated hat found in the treasure and a pargrahi material in the bracelet has been used which would have collided with the earth 1 million years ago. The study states that meteorite iron is found in a particular type of stony meteorite bodies that are mainly made of silicate. According to the researchers, the amount of cobalt in it is also enough.
Interestingly, it has been said that thousands of years ago, it was quite popular to use the material of meteor bodies falling on the earth in decorative things like jewelery, etc. A similar decorative item was also found in Tutankhamun’s tomb. Vilena’s treasure was discovered in the Iberian Peninsula. This gives evidence of the time when the human was entering the bronze era from the stone. That is, he was shifting to the use of bronze with stone. It is also said about this treasure that it belongs to an entire community and not from any royal family.
90 percent of the treasure was made from 23.5 carat gold and 11 bowls, 3 bottles and 28 bracelets were also found in it. The artifacts were discovered by Archaeologist Jose Maria Solar in December 1963. At that time, he was digging the bottom of a dry river called ‘Rambala del Panadero’, about seven miles from Vilena, along with the team.
