Certainly, here's a paraphrased version of the text:
In February 2005, a remarkable Iron Age gold alloy torc known as the "Newark Torc" was discovered on the outskirts of Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire, England, by a metal detectorist.
The core of the torc is composed of electrum, an amalgam of gold, silver, and copper, weighing 700 grams (approximately 1.5 pounds) and measuring 20 centimeters in diameter. The body of the torc is crafted from thin strands of rolled gold alloy wire, intricately woven into eight ropes, and then twisted together. The terminals of the torc are ring-shaped and adorned with floral and point designs. It is believed that the torc was likely created in Norfolk and bears a striking resemblance to another torc discovered in Sedgeford, North Norfolk, leading some experts to speculate that they may have been crafted by the same artisan. The Newark Torc was intentionally buried in a pit, indicating that it was not accidentally lost. However, the exact reason for its deposition remains unclear, although Jeremy Hill, the head of research at the British Museum, suggested that it might have been buried as an offering to deities.
Radiocarbon dating places the Newark Torc's creation between 250 and 50 B.C., with its burial estimated to have occurred around 75 B.C. The torc was stumbled upon by Maurice Richardson, a tree surgeon, during his search for metal objects in the field.
In 2005, the Newark Torc was officially declared a treasure trove and, in 2006, it was acquired by the Newark Millgate Museum, thanks in part to substantial financial support from the National Heritage Memorial Fund.
