In 1978, on windswept plains of northern Afghanistan, archaeologists unearthed tombs of ancient nomads that had been sealed for two thousand years and discovered an extraordinary trove: some 22,000 individual pieces of gold buried with the remains of six Bactrian nomads. Within months of this discovery at Tillya Tepe, a Soviet invasion isolated Afghanistan, and the so-called Bactrian Hoard disappeared into legend once more.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, Afghan president Hamid Karzai surprised the world with his announcement that the priceless artifacts had been located intact. They had been rescued, along with other masterpieces from the National Museum of Afghanistan, Kabul, and protected in the intervening years of turmoil by a group of selfless Afghan heroes who have come to be known as the “the key holders”—curators and guards of the museum. Gold items from the Bactrian cache and many other ancient Afghan works of art are explored in this book, published to accompany the exhibition of the treasures.

世界各大古文明的十字路口,擁有輝煌燦爛古文化的阿富汗,其古代的藝術品擁有世界上獨一無二的美,卻同時也是世界上最悲慘的國傢,除瞭最悲慘的巴米揚大佛外,阿富汗國傢博物館的藏品同樣在塔利班時期遭受瞭破壞,當地的博物館工作人員藏起一批免遭厄運,於是這本書所收錄的就是這些展品。可以在此看到阿富汗的國寶黃金山羊,以及各種藝術品。(2017年,有幸在故宮看到瞭這批阿富汗國寶在中國的展齣,展齣的內容和本書收錄的一模一樣,本來以為有生之年也無緣和這批文物一見,結果緣分到瞭還真是擋不住啊)
