6500 Year Old Gold Pendant in Thessaloniki

What an experience this must have been. A hiker from Greece was traipsing through a field near Ptolemaida, Greece and came across a shiny gold object.

It turns out that the object is a 6500 year old pendant. Not only that, it is one of only three such artifacts ever found! Read the article here.

Ptolemaida is about 90 miles from Thessaloniki in the ancient homeland of Alexander the Great.
