Are European Relic Hunters Making The Most Of The Drought?

[Erik Oostra]

Are any European relic hunters on this forum making the most of the low rivers and lakes? Some are completely dry exposing all sorts of ancient things.. Or haven't we heard anything because you're all out there and don't have time to post about your huge hauls.. Or maybe it's just too hot to go outside?  

It's a bit like gold prospecting in areas which have been burned down.. Another great example of the advantages of climate change.. 😬

Nice article, I had known about the weather over there but had o idea about some of the places to be hunted.

I hope that someone responds to your question just to see what they may have found.

Another great article, covering the whole world instead of just the treasures found during the European drought.. https://www.abc.net.au/news/science/2022-08-27/drought-dried-riverbeds-hidden-treasures-climate-change/101370438

Wow, I hope some detectorists are allowed to visit these places 🤔

Drought is just getting started here. We've had normal rain all year until now.
