Archaeologists in the Romanian city of Constanta have discovered a 2,000-year-old Roman-era trove of graves, including a rare piece of a rare parade or ceremonial shield. The discovery was made during a routine survey for a hospital construction project in the city. The team uncovered 34 graves, some of which had multiple burials inside. They also found African amphoras and a Greek inscription with a connection to a religious group present in Roman-evaluation. Archaeologists discovered that the catacombs stretch far further than previously believed, indicating the organized funerary efforts of the Tomis culture from roughly 2,00 years ago.
