Four 1,900-year-old swords, complete with wooden and leather scabbards, have been unearthed from a remote cave overlooking the Dead Sea in an Israeli desert by archeologists.

The rare find included a shafted Roman "pilum" spear and "spatha" swords.

The desert location, overlooking the Dead Sea, was a hideout for Jewish rebels against the Romans, who controlled what was then Judea between the first century BC and the second century AD.
