Oxus Treasure - Oxus Treasure
Gold and silver artifacts discovered in 1877 in Oxus, Turkestan (Oxus is the ancient name of the Amu Darya River). In addition to rings, figures, containers, and ornamental metal fittings thought to be from the Persian Achaemenid Empire, the collection includes 1,500 coins from the 5th to 2nd centuries B.C. These relics show the eastward spread of Persian culture, and many of them are currently housed in the British Museum.
