Author aaa25 DescriptionEN English Description The Golden treasure named after the town of Panagyurishte in Bulgaria is a relic that is reminiscent of Thracian workmanship in the Balkans. An Amphora, a phiale and seven rhytons are among the core artefacts that make up the 24-carat gold collection. Weighing over 13 pounds the treasure is arguably one of the most valuable historic treasures found in Bulgaria. The store that precedes the treasure involves three brothers that were working in a clay pit where the 9 pieces were first discovered. The treasure was turned over to local authorities and it was kept in the Bulgarian National Bank where three identical copies were made that would travel across international museums and join exhibits. The first copy resides in the Archaeology Museum in the city of Plovdiv and it tends to travel quite a bit across Bulgaria’s largest cities. The Thracian civilization inhabited the south of the Balkan Mountains alongside the banks of the Maritza river during the 5th century BC. One of the capital cities once resided there and the treasure was buried in what is known as the Valley of the Thracian Kings during the 300 BC. It’s main usage during the time was to serve ceremonial wine and for sanctifying during rituals. The bulk of the treasures depict the ancient goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite alongside some Amazon warriors. One of them also depicts the Judgement of Paris and Hercules performing feats of strength. Europeana Specific elements of the Europeana Semantic Elements.
