Roman Lead Coffin
Yes, you heard it right!
They found an ancient Roman Lead coffin. And this was one of the things that were attracting Jason to that site. The fact that the detectorists had found several Roman coins and rings made Massey restless to visit that site again and find other artifacts.
Crew Onboard!
Meanwhile, every one of that crew got on board on the idea of revisiting the old site and soon the excavation process started again. Each and everyone was enthusiastic about the adventure that was to follow this process.
Tick! Tick! Tick!
But with every passing hour, their spirits starting giving up. And soon by evening, almost everyone’s spirit gave up. But Massey was still not convinced by the fact that there was nothing more beneath this land.
Half Crew Gone
The next day many of the crew did not arrive at the excavation spot. On seeing this sight Massey was depressed, but he was still not ready to give up. There is a saying that “Perseverance Pays”, but the real question was whether it was going to come true in this situation.
Give Up!
That afternoon Massey was walking all across the field with a metal detector in his hand. Almost everyone in the crew had given up and Massey was also ready to give up when his friend Minto suggested that they should extend their search for some time.
Extended Search
When Minto convinced Massey that there was still some artifacts that were yet to be found beneath their feet is when Massey picked up the metal detector and started walking in the field. Was his friend right or was he just consoling him?
