The Sarmatians’ Gold exhibition demonstrates ancient art pieces found in the course of the excavations of the ancient burials in the Northern Caspian region. Most of the exhibits are priceless pieces of jewelry. The collection includes adornments and horse harness components, ritual vessels and fragments of ceremonial weapons that belonged to the leaders and their families. The exhibits shed light on the nomads’ culture that roots back to the first millennium BC and was being developed till the Middle Ages. Looking at the precious exhibits, we can find out what they believed in, how their trading partners changed from age to age, what they wore and how they decorated their everyday life. Also, the exhibition features ancient art objects that came to the nomadic horsemen as gifts from their close neighbors and comrades-in-arms.
Exhibits are marked with AR stickers for identification purposes.
