[2500-year-old gold Scythian comb: Found in Ukraine, taken to Hermitage : r/europe](https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/1nrtrgo/2500yearold_gold_scythian_comb_found_in_ukraine/)
Origin of the future Ukrainian Cossacks’ trousers.
Hahaha, Russian assholes! lol.
Holy shit, Ukraine, your ancestors were ruthless! (and well dressed)
dutch dude here: mine were vikings (from an infamous viking family) <– very proud of them too.
edit to add: Russia tried to steal our viking thunder too.. didn’t work for them either
Absolutely sublime metalworking.
It blows my mind that the goldsmith could create something so detailed and perfect with just the unaided eye. I can’t imagine working at this scale without at least a magnifying visor if not a microscope.
Some of my favorite metalworking books are on Scythian goldsmithing and those pieces are just staggeringly beautiful.
