2020 Scotland Bronze Age hoard discovery, consisting of over 500 items, acquired by National Museums Scotland for £80,000.

The Peebles Hoard, a remarkable Bronze Age discovery from 1000-800 BCE, was found in Scotland by metal detectorist Mariusz Stepien in 2020. Consisting of over 500 undisturbed bronze and organic items, it offers insights into Bronze Age life and Scotland's connections across Europe. National Museums Scotland has acquired the hoard for £80,000 and is fundraising for its conservation and research, as some artefacts have no known parallels in Western Europe.
