Archaeologists carrying out at extensive dig near the city of Pacé in the Brittany region of northwestern France unearthed a striking and unusual gold ring dating to the second or third century BC. This ring features the image of Venus Victrix, a Roman version of the goddess Venus who represented victory in battle. Julius Caesar claimed to be descended from Venus Victrix, which helped legitimize his claim to a position of leadership.
This exciting discovery was announced in a press release by the French National Institute for Preventive Archaeological Research (INRAP). The ring was one of the more intriguing finds during the ongoing INRAP excavations at Pacé, which have uncovered a variety of artifacts and evidence of thriving agricultural settlements spanning from the Late Bronze Age to the Middle Ages.
Currently judged to be approximately 1,800 years old, the gold ring features a precisely chiseled mount and a face that is made from a type of bluish-black onyx known as nicolo. This extremely valuable ring is decorated with an intricately carved engraving of Venus Victrix, who was renowned in ancient Rome as the embodiment of beauty and strength.
