900-Year-Old Crusader Sword Discovered Off Coast of Israel

A diver exploring the waters off the northern coast of Israel stumbled upon a rather remarkable find in the form of a 900-year-old from the Crusader period. Shlomi Katzin reportedly made the discovery this past Saturday during a dive near the country's Carmel Beach. Spotting an anchor and a few other artifacts that had apparently been exposed by an undercurrent, the underwater explorer ventured over to the items and, to his surprise, found the approximately three-foot-long sword that was covered in crustaceans and other marine life.
