Looks shockingly well-preserved for 9000 years old.

Almost suspiciously so...

Looks like something you find in Majora's Mask, probably in a desert. At the very least, the horrifying cinematic that plays when Link puts it on is quite fitting.

Jason Voorhees is older than we thought.

I already have half of a crappy script in my head.

Jason 7000BC

That actually sounds like it'd be a cool spin on the series. I mean, you can never get as stupid as Jason X

And hockey must be even older
