Golden Oak Wreath

photo

View of a Golden Oak Wreath from a tomb near Amphipolis. Note the delicate metal work and even the acorn just left of center. Date: probably around 300 B.C.

Similar type wreaths were found in the tomb of Philip II, the father of Alexander the Great—but they don't allow photographs in that museum!#@!
