GOLDEN TREASURE OF NAGYSZENTMIKLÓS EXHIBITED IN SOFIA
200 years after it was discovered, the golden treasure of Nagyszentmiklós is in Bulgaria for the first time. It is the largest treasure of the early Middle Ages. So far it has not exited the museum of art history in Vienna in its entirety. Its visit to the National Archaeological Museum in Sofia is a great event for Bulgaria as it is assumed it was closely related to the First Bulgarian Empire.
Along with it, the archaeological museum is displaying the exhibition “Bulgaria Gentiles: Power and Society” to show similarities with finds on the ancient Bulgarian lands.
The treasure was found more than 200 years ago in Banat, next to the border with Serbia and Hungary. In the field, in the middle of nowhere, buried in the ground, and like with most treasures, without anything else to suggest at least some of its true history. Therefore, it continues to provoke the imagination of scientists. A wide range of views continue to be held as to the dating and the origins of the styles of the pieces and the context in which they were made.
Over the years, new data from archaeological discoveries suggest one or another hypothesis. None of them however can explain the biggest mystery of the treasure: undeciphered text of runic signs unknown to science language
