Archaeology breakthrough as drought exposes wealth of finds across Europe

In the Danube in Serbia, low water levels have exposed the sunken remains of two ships from World War Two.

Discovered near the town of Prahovo, the vessels formed part of a Nazi fleet from 1944, and were still loaded with explosives when recently discovered.

And in the River Elbe, which flows from the Czech Republic through Germany, mysterious “hunger stones” have been discovered in its banks.

But the stones, which date back to the 15th century, have a rather ominous message.

Found in Děčín in central Europe, one of the stones has the words “if you see me, cry” carved onto them.
