In 1978, a Soviet-Afghan archaeological team led by Viktor Sarianidi uncovered a cache of over 20,000 gold objects at Tillya Tepe, or 'Golden Hill,' in northern Afghanistan. Dating to the first century BCE, these treasures belonged to a nomadic Saka or Parthian elite and blend Hellenistic, Chinese, Indian, and Siberian artistic traditions. This episode traces the discovery, the artistry of the six tombs, and the extraordinary journey of the Bactrian Gold through the Soviet war in Afghanistan, Taliban looting attempts, and its eventual display in Kabul. We discuss the golden crown, the Aphrodite clasp, and the dagger with its sheath, and how the treasure reflects the Silk Road's cultural crosscurrents. The collection's survival and recent exhibitions in Uzbekistan and beyond reveal a shared Central Asian heritage that transcends modern borders. #TillyaTepe #BactrianGold #ViktorSarianidi #Afghanistan #SilkRoad #Kushan #Saka #Parthian #HellenisticArt #NomadicArt #Archaeology #CentralAsia #AfghanTreasures #KabulMuseum #Taliban #Gold #History #FexingoHistory Fexingo founder and producer: Ibnul Jaif Farabi Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
