Dorchester father and son detectorists find 14 axe heads
A Man who found 14 Bronze Age axe heads with his son has described The Experience as " unreal".
Martin Turner , 52, and his son Rhys, 18, were metal detecting in a field near Dorchester, Dorset, when they came across the haul.
He told The Bbc : " I couldn't believe what we were finding. I knew they were old but I didn't realise how old. "
Archaeologists are now expected to excavate The Site due to the significance of The Find .
Mr Turner and his son were exploring a field they had not searched before in June and it was not long before they made their first discovery.
" We'd only been there for a quarter of an hour before we found The First one, " he explained.
" Then I dug it up and knew it was an old axe, so I called my boy over and said 'you'll never believe what I've found'.
" And as he came over to me his detector went off right behind my back, and I said 'you better dig that,' and he dug up Another One straight away and I was like 'what?'
" I turned my detector back on, went to Walk Away , and it went off, and probably not even 18 inches away there was Another One .
" When we put them All Together and I was taking pictures of them on the floor, about three feet away from us there was one on top of the ground, " added Mr Turner.
Mr Turner was left reeling at The Luck of his teenage son.
" People spend all their lives trying to get one of these on their bucket list and he's been part of finding 14 of them, " He Said .
" The Feeling of holding them for the First Time in 4,500 years - you're the only person to hold these in that amount of time.
" That's the excitement of it, " he added.
Mr Turner would like to see the artefacts put on display at Dorchester Museum because " they're part of The Local history".
The Site 's precise location must be kept secret to prevent people looking for treasure to sell on The Black market.
