Uncovered by Drought: Massive 1,500-Pound WWII British Mine Emerges from Danube’s Depths
In addition to these relatively recent historical finds, the low water level of the Danube has also revealed artifacts from ancient history. Earlier this month, researchers exploring the Danube in Hungary discovered a Roman altar dedicated for Jupiter, in addition to two accompanying limestone slabs.
Múlt-kor, a Hungarian magazine, also reported that the drought allowed archaeologists in Bulgaria to find remains of a 4th-century C.E. bridge that was built during the reign of Roman Emperor Constantine I and is considered one of the longest known bridges from antiquity.
Due to both the possibility of disturbing archaeological sites, and the potential dangers of finding unexploded munitions like the one found in Slovakia, officials have warned members of the public against searching for artifacts themselves as little-seen stretches of the Danube become uncovered.
After reading about the 1,500-pound British mine from World War II that was found in Slovakia, learn about this British World War II submarine discovered in the Aegean Sea 81 years after it disappeared. Then, dive into the history of the Blitz, the Nazis’ bombing campaign in England.
