The text contains a biography of Schliemann, the history of the archaeological dig, and a historic and descriptive commentary on each object, including finely wrought golden bowls, jewelry, figurines, hammer-axes, and crystal lenses. Introduction by Irina Antonova. Translated from the Russian by Christina Sever and Mila Bonnichsen.
