4,000-year-old Early Bronze Age axeheads anonymously sent to the National Museum of Ireland for conservation.

The National Museum of Ireland is appealing for information on two 4,000-year-old Early Bronze Age axeheads, sent anonymously to the museum in June. The axeheads were discovered in the Westmeath area using a metal detector, and the sender expressed a desire for the artifacts to be conserved by the museum. Experts have identified these items as flat axeheads from the Early Bronze Age, providing a significant archaeological insight into Ireland's distant past.
