An amber necklace dating back to approximately 420 AD, found in a grave of a Germanic woman in Schleitheim, Switzerland.
The woman, who died between the age of 25 to 29 years, was buried with various valuable possessions, including silver jewelry and glass beads, in addition to the amber necklace. The rich jewellery reflects her elevated social status.
