🔘The Varna Necropolis🔘
⚫It is a burial site in Varna , Bulgaria ; and is internationally considered one of the key archaeological sites in world prehistory.
⚫About 300 graves were uncovered in the necropolis, many containing sophisticated examples of metallurgy (gold and copper), pottery (about 600 pieces, including gold-painted ones), high-quality flint and obsidian blades, beads, and shells.
⚫Over 22,000 gorgeous artifacts were recovered, including 3,000+ items made from gold.
⚫The oldest gold treasure in the world, dating from 4,600 BC to 4,200 BC, was discovered at the site.
💀Inside grave 43, archaeologists uncovered the remains of a high status male who appears to have been a ruler/leader of some kind – more gold was found within this burial than in the entire rest of the world in that period.
⚫The burial is incredibly significant as it is the first known elite male burial in Europe.
⚫The artifacts can be seen at the Varna Archaeological Museum and at the National Historical Museum in Sofia.
