Members phkrause Posted April 23 Author Members Posted April 23 Helmet Heads Home A 2,500-year-old golden helmet and two golden bracelets were returned to Romania yesterday, ending a 14-month saga that began when the pieces were taken from a Dutch museum. The recovery brings a set of national heirlooms back to Bucharest, though the search for a third missing bracelet is ongoing. See the helmet here. The Coțofenești helmet dates back to the Dacia civilization, a people known for their opposition to the Roman Empire who lived primarily in modern-day Romania. The country had loaned the pieces to the Netherlands’ Drents Museum when they were stolen in January 2025. Security footage showed three people using a crowbar to open a museum door before an explosion (watch grainy footage). Earlier this month, Dutch authorities revealed they had recovered the helmet and two of the three bracelets amid an ongoing trial for the three suspects. The helmet has been slightly dented; the recovered bracelets show no damage. Watch a 20-minute video on the Dacians here.

The Oracle of Delphi—Was She Really Stoned? Archaeologists are good at recovering things left behind by the past, such as buildings, incense altars, tools and relief carvings. What they are not so good at recovering are the ideas, feelings and emotions—the innerness—of sentient ancient beings. It’s one thing to examine a temple’s holy of holies; it’s another thing to understand what went on there and what people experienced.
