Gold plated pendant with&nbsp;a lion.Herodotus (Historiai 7.121.1) reports that during Xerxes' invasion of Greece in 480 BC, his army encountered several night attacks from lions as it crossed Macedonia. Xenophon in his work Kynigetikos (4th century BC) becomes more specific saying that the lions' lairs were the mountains Hortiatis and Pangaeo. So it seems that the lions that once lived in our country were limited to Macedonia and Northern Greece in general.Of course, the most famous lion of Greek mythology is that of Nemea, this mythical animal that spread terror in the northeastern Peloponnese and was killed by the bare hands of the first of the Greek heroes, Heracles. The skin of this lion, the lioness, was worn by the hero to protect him and is depicted with it in numerous representations on vases, reliefs, coins and seals from the 6th century BC and since then.

Gold plated pendant&nbsp;with bee.Since prehistoric times, people have recognized the nutritional value of honey. In art the presence of the bee is strong in jewelry, gold tiles or in representations on vases and coins.The insect is inextricably linked to the goddess Artemis and particularly to her temple in Ephesus (one of the seven wonders of the ancient world), whose priestesses were called "Bees". At the same time, the bee was established as one of the emblems of the ancient city of Ephesus and is consistently depicted on monetary types from the end of the 7th century BC. According to Porphyry (About the den of nymphs in the Odyssey), the priestesses of the goddess Demeter in Eleusis were also called "bees".

Gold plated pendant with a Muse holding a lyre.&nbsp;&nbsp;Nine Nymphs, daughters of Zeus and the titanic Mnemosyne (Memory), who roamed the Pieria mountains and Parnassus enchanted by the sounds of the lyre of Apollo Musagetis. Each of them was a patron of an artistic activity. Erato, as the patroness of love (as her name suggests) and marriage, is associated with love and lyric poetry. Because of her association with love, she is often depicted naked holding her symbol: a lyre."And now Muse Erato, come to us and tell us how Jason brought the golden Fleece from his suitor to Medea because you have the graces of Cyprid Venus and bring magic to unmarried girls."1-5 Argonauts Book C.

In greek mythology Medusa is one of the three Mermaids. Among those three sisters, Medusa was the only mortal. Her other name was “Γοργώ” (Gorgo), which means “wild look”. The goddess Athena depicted on her shield the head of Medusa, the "mermaid" as a weapon in battle. The mermaid is considered as an amulet that keeps the evil away. In antiquity it has been imprinted on many Greek and Roman objects such as shields, chests, mosaics and coins.

PENDANT | MOTHER AND CHILD

Pendant&nbsp;inspired from a stone, cruciform figurine of two superimposed figures.Cruciform figurines have most probably developed from the stump-like figurines of the preceding Neolithic period, but are thinner and more slender than their predecessors. They have a high neck, disproportionately large flattish head slightly tilted back, extended arms, and legs bent at the knees or in a squatting posture. Some of them bear suspension-hole in the upper part of the head and were apparently worn as pendants. They probably reflect religious beliefs about fertility and re-generation. They may have been linked with the cult of the “Great Mother Goddess” or with practices associated with childbirth. Chalcolithic period (3900-2500 BC)
