Found in the Vapheio tholos tomb.
Early 15th century BC

This gold cup was a set of two found in the tomb. The decoration of the cup shows a bull being captured in a net while hunters are being chased away by another bull on the back side (2nd image). The impressions are very carefully detailed for a generally utilitarian item which is unique for this time.
