An 8-year-old girl has pulled an ancient sword from a lake in Sweden.
She then found the pre‑Viking‑era sword while swimming in the lake.
The sword was initially reported to be 1,000 years old, but experts at the local museum now believe it may date to around 1,500 years ago.
The level of the water was extremely low at the time, due to a drought, which is probably why she uncovered the ancient weapon.
