A pair of lynx-shaped gold earrings have been unearthed near eastern Türkiye's Ani Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The valuables dazzled archaeologists with their star, droplet and crescent motifs engraved with fine workmanship and are set to be exhibited at the Kars Archaeology and Ethnography Museum in 2023 for a limited time after being safely guarded in a warehouse up to now.

The fact that I feel there may be a ton of other pairs that archeologists could sneak home…

I mean the more likely culprits of stealing cultural stuff from the site are the locals. :bradley: I like to think archaeologists usually have decent morals and a good education (at least in 2022). But you never know..
