The Treasure of Sannicolau Mare (Hungarian:Nagyszentmiklos)

In 1799, one of the most important gold hoards of the European early Middle Ages was discovered near the village of Nagyszentmiklós (then in the Kingdom of Hungary, now Sânnicolau Mare, Romania). The contributions in this volume discuss goldsmith techniques and the possible connections between the treasure and the culture of the Sasanian Empire.
