Open post Laurent Kloetzer @LependuXII@mamot.fr · 15mo ago Replying to @ninawillburger@social.anoxinon.de <p>A magnificent gold wreath, found in tomb in Armento, southern Italy, dating 4th c. BC.<br />The wreath features a winged goddess at its center, and an inscription at the base of the deity reads: "Kreithonios gave the gold for this wreath."<br />The donor's intention was to enhance his reputation among the deities of the underworld and to present himself as a devout individual. Gold wreaths were a frequent element of grave goods, especially in southern Italy.</p><p>On display at Antikensammlung München </p><p>📷 me</p> @luvan@mamot.fr tu l'as vu ? Qu'est-ce que c'est beau !
