Macedonian gold gorytos, detail
Close up showing the fine workmanship on a Macedonian gold gorytos from the tomb of Philip II in Macedon in Vergina of the 2nd half of the 4th century BCE. A gorytos is a type of leather case for a short composite bow and arrows used by the Scythians in classical antiquity. They are a combination of bow case and quiver in one, and were worn on the archer's left hip with the opening tilted rearward. Many gorytos such as this one were gilded and sometimes as here highly decorated with finely rendered battle scenes. At least one surviving specimen was determined by scanning electron microscope to be made of human skin.
