Ancient Swords That Didn't Rust

Awhile back I saw a news story in which a 2,300 year-old double-edged bronze sword was found in a tomb in the city of Xinyang, China inside a crust, rotting scabbard. But, when scientists carefully extracted it, they found that the sword hadn't rusted, but remained bright and shiny. The two-minute video below shows the sword being pulled from the scabbard.
