Pyxis of Čierne Kľačany (original) (raw)

The Pyxis of Čierne Kľačany (Slovak: Čiernokľačianska pyxida) is an oval-shaped jewel box (i.e. a pyxis) made of ivory. Several fragments were found in an intact tomb near the village of Čierne Kľačany in Slovakia in 1974 by a group of boys and locals. The artifact was subsequently reconstructed from the fragments.
