A pair of gold bull head earrings, decorated with granulation, filigree and garnets. Dating late 4th century BC. Hoops formed of wound wire with animal-head finials were a very popular type of earring during the #Hellenistic period. They were inserted into a hole in the earlobe. 📷 me On display at Landesmuseum Württemberg #archaeology #RomanArchaeology
