    1. Uncovered in 2017 near Lake Biel in Bern, Switzerland by treasure hunters using metal detectors, a bronze-cast prosthetic hand was brought to the Bern Archaeological Service for review along with a bronze dagger.

      The one-pound bronze limb features a gold foil cuff around the wrist and an attachment within that reportedly would have allowed the cast to be mounted. Radiocarbon dating was done on the glue attaching the foil to the wrist, placing the artifact around 1400 to 1500 B.C.
