I spent 6 very happy hours in this museum and would go again in a heartbeat. What a treasure trove! As for the jewelry, it’s incredible what survives! I can’t understand why it is so hard to find replicas of ancient jewelry. Some of the most beautiful ornaments I’ve ever seen - far more beautiful than most jewelry today!
I found out I was Greek by researching my roots... My Great Grand Father was from Sicily (*and he had Greek roots - his grandmother was Greek...) and ironically his last name was La Greca (*which means the Greek in Italian) I was in pleasant shock - and was shocked that I went back several hundred years! love this so much! thank you!
The Ancient Civiliations particularly the Greeks never cease to amaze when it comes to the craftsmanship! This looks like an incredibly inspiring museum, could get lost in it 😂
I’m a Greek American, we’re not sure how we got the Italian name Perroti/Perrotis, but we know our family originated in Kalamata. I really enjoyed this video, but I think everyone will, Greek or not. The historian/archaeologist presenting this is a lovely Greek lady. Thanks for posting this with the English translation, sadly, I never learned to speak modern Greek.❤🇬🇷
Okay I watched a video can not remember what it was but a gold crown similar to this was found by a family who were cleaning out there fathers home after he passed and found a gold crown almost exactly the same......
No culture or civilization has ever had such a profound influence on all later ones like the Hellenic (Greek) one, up to and including those of the present day. Rome was almost as influential, but they modeled their entire culture on that of the Hellenes. My native, US-English, language actually has more Hellenic vocabulary than Anglo-Saxon. Greek ideas, institutions and aesthetics permeate the entire modern world. Long live Hellas!
Από τήν στιγμή πού αισθάνεστε υπερηφάνεια για τίς ελληνικές σας ρίζες , καί θαυμασμό για κάθε τι ελληνικό , τότε εύχομαι κάποτε νά μπορέσετε νά μάθετε την γλώσσα τών προγόνων σας !!! Τότε θά αισθανθείτε μεγάλη χαρά , ικανοποίηση , πληρότητα , καί υπερηφάνεια !!!🇬🇷
The industry of gold making predates ancient Egypt and is actually balkanic, as Bulgarian sites ( Varna... ) demonstrate. This excellent presentation only missed the very rich finds of Greek gold in Scythian territory near the Black sea from classical and hellenistic times, although most of the finds are to be seen in the Hermitage Museum, St Petersburg. A word on gold filigree, an outstanding technique, was also expected.
This video presented only artifacts being in the exact museum, not the ancient Greek golden artifacts in general which are spread in museums all over Greece and other countries. A great unique collection can be seen in Vergina (royal tombs museum) in north Greece near Thessaloniki. There you can see also many ancient silverware.
the ancient Greeks are the Greeks - so called the noble Thracian families who remained after the invasion of the Ethiopian gypsies - the other peaceful Thracians could not defend themselves and left the islands of Samothrace and Thassos. The oldest ornaments are in the Bulgarian lands, Solomon's temple is Pliska (Bulgaria), Solomon's mines are the salt pans of Provadia (Bulgaria), Solomon's temple is the Great Basilica (Bulgaria), the priest found at the Varna treasure is Solomon, the "Greeks" rewrote history in the 2nd century benefit, but everything comes to light. Bulgaria. the most ancient country.

Apologies, at the end it says the presenter is an actress and “High Priestess of the Olympic Games”, not a historian or archaeologist.

Unfortunately many people dig in Greece looking for antiquities, not always legally.
@@eleniasimop that is so sad, you must work to stop it.
