Nina Willburger<p>A stunning <a href="https://social.anoxinon.de/tags/torc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>torc</span></a> from the Erstfeld Treasure, showing animals that merge into each other to form fanciful creatures. The treasure was deposited in a rock crevice in a valley leading to the Gotthard Pass, probably as votive offerings of a group of travellers. It consists of four golden <a href="https://social.anoxinon.de/tags/torcs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>torcs</span></a> and three golden arm rings. Found in Erstfeld, Switzerland, dating around 390 BC. On display at Landesmuseum Zurich. </p><p><a href="https://social.anoxinon.de/tags/archaeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>archaeology</span></a></p>
