These men need found. This is the most socially important gold object in the Iron Age of western Europe.

Oh no!! I cannot describe how awful this is - the Vix torc is one of THE BEST pieces of Iron Age goldwork. I just can't believe it! Oh my. #Archaeology #Torcs #Gold www.ici.fr/bourgogne-fr...

With today's theft of Vix torc, here's what has been taken... The torc was found as part of a burial & placed around neck of the interred. Despite its size, it weighs only 480g (less that half the weight of the Snettisham Great torc). It is STUNNING. #Archaeology #Gold #Torcs 🏺 1/2

Great to spend day 1 of #FestivalofArchaeology at Altcar Rifle range with 22 Mersey & Dee Young archaeologists @yac-cba.bsky.social.
