New York: An international research team has found a tomb dating back to about 1500 BC filled with Bronze Age wealth and weapons at the town of Pylos in Greece.
The researchers found in it more than 1,400 objects: jewels, weapons and armour, as well as bronze, silver and gold vessels.
On the floor of the grave lay the skeleton of an adult male. Weapons lay to his left, and jewellery to his right.
Near the head and chest was a bronze sword, its ivory hilt covered in gold. A gold-hilted dagger lay beneath it.
Still more weapons were found by the man's legs and feet. Near his neck was a perfectly preserved gold necklace with two pendants.
By his right side and spread around his head were over one thousand beads of carnelian, amethyst, jasper, agate and gold. Nearby were four gold rings, and silver cups as well as bronze bowls, cups, jugs and basins.
