Notes

From card: "Piece not numbered. Exhibit, Hall 26, 1976".

As of 2008, this object consists of 2 jars of gold fragments and 5 ornaments (formerly on exhibit in NMNH Hall 26). Hall 26 records identified the 5 ornaments as Catalogue No. A136582/A136583. Since it is not possible to tell which of these might be 136582 and which might be 136583, they are all currently stored as number 136582. The 1978 NMNH slide set caption for the 5 gold ornaments identified them as Etruscan, Italy.
