Among the finds were a bronze frying pan handle and a mysterious iron object wrapped in lead, providing insight into ancient craftsmanship and daily life.
The excavation also revealed evidence of lime burning by the villa inhabitants, highlighting the technical practices of the period. Alexandra Kiss, an archaeologist at the Szent István Király Museum in Székesfehérvár, described the discovery as an exciting addition to understanding Roman-era activity in Hungary.
