in story •  7 years ago 

After discovering the legendary ancient site, Troy, in Turkey, Heinrich Schliemann sought to find the tomb of Agamemnon, King Mycenae who led Greece during the Tojan War.

The golden mask of King Agamemnon's death (Ancient Origins).
In 1876, Schliemann along with the Greek Archaeological Society dug a grave dating from the Bronze Age. There they found a relic of Mycenae royalty, 5 of them using a mask made of thick gold sheets.

Of the five masks, there is one mask that shows the bearded man. Schliemann also claimed that the object belonged to King Agamemnon. But the truth until now is still a debate.
