| Description | In 2006, two ribbed, cuff bracelets were "rediscovered" in the depository of the National Museum. They form part of the inventory of a grave excavated in 1903 at Tursko (Prague West district). This paper aims to assess these unique items from several points of view, including the history of their discovery, their typological and chronological classification, and analysis of the material from which they were made, above all, analysis of the corrosion layers and surviving textile imprints, as well as questions of conservation. |
