The bronze hoard was discovered on the territory of Mîndrești village, Telenești district, in 1968. It was identified accidentally by a group of students from the village school, and the materials later came to the attention of specialists at the Institute of History of the Academy of Sciences. According to documentary records, the hoard was composed of ten pieces: four socketed axes (celts), a dagger fragment, a sword fragment, a sickle, a winged axe, an adze-axe, and a chain consisting of four links. Currently, of the mentioned assemblage, six objects are preserved in the collections of the National Museum of History of Moldova: two socketed axes (celts), the winged axe, the adze-axe, the dagger fragment, and the chain made of four links.- Socketed axe (celt) with one loop.

Dimensions: Length - 16.5 cm; Blade length - 9.8 cm; Blade width - 2.8 cm; Weight - 81 g. - Chain formed of four links. Dimensions: Length - 17.1 cm; Link diameter - 3.8; Weight - 32 g.The bronze hoard of Mîndrești is important due to the association of objects that find analogies in the regional repertoire with pieces that show clear analogies in Central Europe and the Carpathian Basin. The assemblage reflects a zone of contact and interaction where metallic forms of different origins and traditions circulated and were integrated into the repertoire of local communities. Chronologically, the bronze hoard of Mîndrești is attributed to the Early Hallstatt period - HaA1, being dated to 1200-1100 BC.

Tyragetia, serie nouă, vol. IV [XIX], nr. 1, Arheologie. Istorie Antică
В данной статье автор анализирует вопрос об археологическом наследии и о нелегальной краже и продаже древностей в Республике Молдова. На основе нескольких примеров показывается солжность ситуации в области охраны археологичесго наследия, распространение феноменнов «чёрной археологии» и незаконная торговля древностей в Республике Молдова. Несмотря на то что национальное законодательство содержит административные и уголовные санкции направленные против тех которые совершают преступления, что ведут к повреждению и разрушению археологического наследия, до сих пор небыло никто небыл привлечён к ответсвенности. По неофициальным данным, в Республике Молдова, имеются более 1500 метал детекторов которые используются «чёрными архелолгами». Следы этих копателей можно заметить на самых известных памятников – Костешты, Яловенский район, Древний Орхей и.др. Незаконная торговля древностей в Республике Молдова реализуется в отрытую, доказательством может быть, так называемая «биржа» которая проводится в каждую суботу в здание ресторана «Garcorix», улица В. Александри 78 в городе Кищинэу, где можно найти помимо почтовых марок, современных монет и археологические предметы. В этой ситуации, правительство Республике Молдова должна, как можно быстрее разработать эфективную и долгосрочную программу по защите археологического наследия.
