The Panagyurishte Treasure (Панагюрско златно съкровище) is a Thracian treasure discovered in 1949 two kilometres south of the town of Panagyurishte, Bulgaria. It consists of nine gold vessels (a phiale, an amphora and seven rhytons) with total weight of 6.164 kg of 23-karat gold. All of the objects are richly and skilfully decorated with scenes of Thracian myths, customs and life. The treasure is dated to the 4th-3rd centuries BC, and is thought to have been used as a royal ceremonial set, possibly by a Thracian kings. The big amphora has handles shaped as centaurs, and the openings for pouring wine represent Negro heads. Inbetween those two opinings, the amphora is decorated with a scene of Hercules fighting a snake. Three of the seven rhytons are jugs with Amazon heads and carry scenes and heroes from Greek mythology, and the phiale carries inscriptions giving its weight in Greek drachmae and Persian darics.
