Listed 1 sub titles with search on: Archaeological findings for destination: "POLIOCHNI Prehistoric settlement LEMNOS (LIMNOS)".
A treasure of gold jewelry belongs to one of the last phases of the
settlement. It was found hidden in a vase and consists of rings, earrings, bracelets,
necklaces. Some of the artifacts were found entire, others were broken. All of
them are similar to those of the so-called Priam's Treasure, revealed in Troy,
which lies exactly opposite Poliochni, in Asia
Minor.
