Ahoy, mateys! Gather ‘round as I spin ye a yarn from the depths of Poland’s Łysa Góra site, where a treasure trove of nearly 350 curious artifacts hath been dug up, including a most rare 2,300-year-old Celtic helmet! Aye, it be a fine piece, discovered on a fair day in August 2024 by the brave souls of the Archaeological Museum of Warsaw, led by the illustrious Dr. Bartłomiej Kaczyński.

This here helmet, the first of its kind from the ancient La Tène period found on Polish soil, be a sight to behold! It be tellin’ tales of the Celts who roamed far and wide, lured northward by the glitterin’ amber that be worth its weight in gold in the Mediterranean seas. Aye, it seems our Celtic friends were not just warriors but traders too!

Alongside the helmet were iron axes and shiny trinkets—a treasure fit for a chieftain, I say! Though the helmet be in a bit of a sorry state, rest assured, it be headin’ to the restoration department, to shine like a beacon in the State Archaeological Museum by 2026.
