An Archaeological Pot of Gold Discovered 🤑💰🪙

Archaeology isn't about treasure! Well, sometimes it is...

Thousands of years ago, Anatolia (the Asian part of present-day Turkey) was a fierce battleground between the Greeks and the Persians. In the ancient city of Notion, an ancient mercenary warrior buried a pot of gold representing months and months of wages, but he never returned for his hard-earned loot - and that's how this bit of ancient history became one of the top archaeological discoveries of 2024! Who was he and why didn't he return? That will just have to remain one of those unanswered and unanswerable historical mysteries...
