About this video
In sixteen seconds, a familiar piece of machinery becomes something stranger. The recovered oleo strut, photographed ruins and old parchments pull the modern investigation toward a much older trail.
Context
This is a fictional clue from Hammer. The object, parchments and relationship between them belong to the novel's mystery; the imagery is a cinematic visualisation rather than an authenticated archaeological or historical record.
