  • The ancient sword was discovered by 8-year-old Saga Vanecek in Vidöstern lake

  • The child at first thought she'd pulled out a stick, before realizing it was a sword

  • Experts estimate it's at least 1,000 years old, likely dating to pre-Viking era

  • They're now working to preserve it before putting it on display at a museum

#2  Did Sweden pay the girl for finding and recovery of the sword?

If so how much was she or her family paid?
