People know how to do beautiful things. Moreover, people have long been able to do beautiful things, and it is still unclear whether the human race passed the peak of its form several centuries ago. We accompany this discussion thesis with photographs of ancient or even ancient man-made products that are truly impressive.





But some of them also rolled around in the ground/on the ground, and they were worn out by time. It’s scary to imagine how good these artifacts were during their “youth”. Let's see!

Greek gold bracelet with fighting goat terminals



5th century BC, made of gold and agate.

Bronze "Roman dodecahedron" discovered in the summer of 2023





The 12-sided stone spent approximately 1,700 years in the ground. Found during amateur excavations in the English county of Lincolnshire.

Bonus: Mosaic atrium house in the ancient Roman city of Herculaneum, 1st century BC
