Funerary Mask
Discovered during excavations on the Svetitsata mound (in the Stara Zagora region of Bulgaria), this gold funerary mask is of a middle-aged Thracian man. An incredibly rare artefact, the mask itself weighs 673 grams, and has been dated to about the 5th century BC. It seems to portray some individualized features, and some believe it to be the mask of the Odrysian King Teres.
