#AshmoleanAdvent Day 21 - Five Gold Rings ⭐️
In 1905 two exceptional hoards of gold and silver were discovered in the ruins of a small temple at Tukh el-Qaramus. The treasure seems to have been buried in response to an unknown catastrophe in the mid-3rd c. BC.
If you are visiting @Pitt_Rivers over the winter months, don't forget to look up to view a new sculptural installation as you enter! This Community Chandelier was a collaboration between @MultakaOxford and local artists Louisa Johnson and Asma Mahmud Hashmi.
