Saga Vanecek found the relic in the Vidöstern lake while at her family's holiday home in Jönköping County.

The sword was initially reported to be 1,000 years old, but experts at the local museum now believe it may date to around 1,500 years ago.

It was only after he asked a friend to take a closer look did he discover that it was likely to be an ancient relic.

The local museum - which is now preserving the historic item - said the sword was extremely well-preserved.



I mean....
I've seen a lot of swords crossing the quad, but I don't if there's a better one?

You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
