You just don't have an appreciation for the type of education and dedication it takes to become a museum director

It's easy to sit back and take this at face value. Sword found in lake possibly came from a boat. But there's a lot that goes into such a hypothesis

There's definitely geological changes that occur so just because there's a lake there now doesn't mean there was a half millennia ago. Still funny though

I've heard you can find better looking swords in the LSU lakes.

So the sword found in a lake:

a. May have been on board a boat
b. May have been used in battles
c. May have been usd in executions
d. May have been used in ceremonies

Whatever they’re paying this expert, it’s not enough.

“There’s just not a huge market for 500 year old swords. Best I can do is $75, and even that’s a stretch.”
