A Gold Necklace weighing 1.27 pound found in France.
A gold necklace adorned by a 2,500 year old corpse, which dates back to the fifth century B.C. was found in France by a team from the National Archaeological Research Institute (INRAP).
The body is believed to be that of an aristocrat from the Hallstatts that occupied central Europe during the early Iron Age. The sex of the corpse has not been determined due to the decomposition of the bones.
Along with the gold necklace that weighed 1.27 pounds there were other jewelry items such as gold bracelets, and Amber beads. The tomb also included a massive bronze cauldron, a wine jug with gold inlay, and a chariot.
