A child's shoe found by archeologists in the western village of Dürrnberg, Austria, is believed to be more than 2,000 years old.
The shoe was found, along with a fragment of a wooden shovel blade and remains of fur with lacing, perhaps from a fur hood, in an area where rock salt mining took place from as early as the Iron Age.
The shoe is in outstanding condition, as salt is good for preserving organic remains.
The leather shoe's size roughly corresponds to EU 30 (US 12).
