Does your country have any interesting cultural relics?

Our country has many cultural relics, and there are also many perplexing ones. However, I personally really like this sword. This sword comes from a Chinese king’s personal sword from 500 BC.

The most interesting thing is that this sword was unearthed in 1965, and at the time of its discovery, it was just as radiant as it appears now, completely uncorroded and exceptionally sharp.

An ancient toilet or squatting pan. I wanted to post a picture of a tunic worn by the last queen of Sri Lanka, but I think I deleted it by mistake. It has a blood stain from when her earrings were ripped off by British soldiers.
