AnirudhaRoman Connection
Mads even said further about the discovery that ” Romans probably took part in raids there, so our find is a small legacy from a turbulent time in world history in which gold speaks its own clear language.” It is because of this discovery that the researchers are able to connect the dots with the Roman connection and all thanks to Terese and the unique styles and patterns of the gold.
Head Of Research
The head of research on the jewelry told some amazing things about the gold pieces. “In terms of craft, they are completely unique, with gold markings that almost form spirals,” he explained. “That is evidence of a high level of skill.”
More Opinions
One researcher who writes for Phys.org also wrote about the various theories related to the discovery made by Terese. “We think that it was a typical offering made in the hope that the gods could help those who buried the treasure through a difficult time. And we know that it dates to the 6th century.”
Questions
The researcher added further, “Was it intended to appease angry gods and end the poor summers and dark skies following the El Salvador volcanic eruption? Or was it thanks to the ultimate collapse of the Western Roman Empire a few decades earlier, whereby the gold was brought to Denmark by returning ‘new rich’ aristocrats, who defined a new ritual practice and religion based on the Nordic Gods? We do not know.”
Volcano
The volcanic eruption about which the researcher talked about occurred in El Salvador in 536 A.D. It is believed that the impact of this volcano eruption killed over 100,000 people in an instant. The eruption was so impactful and huge that not just El Salvador but there were other places too which felt the impact of this volcanic eruption.
Ash
According to the Byzantine historian Procopius, the sky was filled with ashes for over a year after the volcanic eruption took place. He even wrote, “The sun gave forth its light without brightness, and it seemed exceedingly like the sun in eclipse, for the beams it shed were not clear.” Even today this volcanic eruption is considered as the most severe eruptions of all time.
