Varna Man and the Wealthiest Grave of the 5th Millennium BC

[: Michael-Robert.]

In the 1970s, archaeologists in Bulgaria stumbled upon a vast Copper Age necropolis from the 5th millennium BC containing the oldest golden artifacts ever discovered near the modern-day city of Varna. But it was not until they reached grave 43 that they realized the real significance of the finding. Inside burial 43 were the remains of a high status male and unfathomable riches ? more gold was found within this burial than in the entire rest of the world in that period.

That was a YOUNG man. Over 18 however. You can tell by the teeth. He has all of them including the wisdom teeth.
