Is there anything more beautiful than a perfect diamond? Is there anything more beautiful than a brilliantly colored gemstone? Since crystals were discovered, people have been fascinated by them throughout history.

It was so valuable that various civilizations gave it different titles depending on how revered they were and how obsessed they became with them. They’re even mentioned in the Bible when it comes to the rebuilding of Jerusalem after the Apocalypse. An excavation in Spain suggests that jewels were popular in the 3rd millennium BC. A group of archaeologists unearthed three shrouds with amber beads and an “amazing collection” of crystal weaponry at the Valenciana de la Concepcion site. The Monterilio trolos was dug between 2007 – 2010 and used for burial. It was constructed from huge slate slabs. This site dates back to a time when metal extraction was very important.

The location where the weapons were found is not related to rock crystal formations. Therefore, we conclude that the crystals were brought from another place. Although it is not clear what these crystals are made from, reports suggest that they could be found many kilometers beyond Valencia. Official documents state that crystal weapon makers must have had some undiscovered knowledge. It is difficult to imagine how they could create such advanced weapons.

It is believed that there were ten arrowheads and four blades found at the site, as well as one large crystal rock.

It’s worth noting that, in addition to the weaponry, 20 bodies were discovered in the main room. These bodies were buried with weapons separate from the crystal weapons. Therefore, none of these weapons can be attributed to them.

Perhaps people’s obsession with crystals and valuable stones in general stems from their spiritual significance, since ancient civilizations saw crystals as conduits between worlds. To sum up, the official article claims that the crystal weapons are some form of burial gear available only to the period’s top strata.
