At first, the Norwegian man thought his metal detector reacted to chocolate money buried in the soil. It turned out to be nine pendants, three rings and 10 gold pearls someone might have worn about 1500 years ago.

起初，這名挪威男子認為，他的金屬探測器對埋在土壤中的巧克力錢有反應。事實證明，這是大約1500年前某人可能佩戴的9個吊墜、3枚戒指和10顆金珍珠。

The rare find was made this summer by 51-year-old Erlend Bore on the southern island of Rennesoey, near the city of Stavanger. Bore had bought his first metal detector earlier this year to have a hobby after his doctor ordered him to get out instead of sitting on the couch.

這是今年夏天51歲的爾倫德‧博雷在斯塔萬格市附近的雷尼蘇伊島南部完成的罕見發現。今年稍早，博雷買了他的第一台金屬探測器來培養嗜好，因為他的醫生命令他出去走走，而不是坐在沙發上。
