A 5,000 year old dagger made of gold and platinum has been unearthed in a Thracian mound near the village of Dabene in central Bulgaria.
Archaeologist Martin Hristov said that his team had also discovered more than 500 tiny golden rings.
More than 15,000 of these rings and beads have been found in the last two years - all dating back to 5,000 to 5,200 years ago.
