Item Details
Description
3rd-5th century AD. A bronze openwork Kiev culture pendant with suspension loop at the top, arching body with triangle with circles at each corner and in the centre inlaid with red enamel, below a zigzag line connecting three triangular pendants. From an old Munich collection; acquired on the German art market before 2000. The Kiev archaeological culture was located in the basin of the rivers Dnieper and Visla; between the 3rd and 5th centuries; archaeologists connect this culture with historical ancestors of the Slavs. However, there are suggestions that in different regions of the Kiev culture ethnogenetic processes were not the same. In some cases, the Slavic component prevailed, whilst Baltic and others were dominant elsewhere. 17 grams, 68mm (2 3/4"). [No Reserve]
