Schliemann began work on Troy in 1871. His excavations began before archaeology developed as a professional field; by present standards. Thinking that Homeric Troy must be in the lowest level, Schliemann and his workers dug hastily through the upper levels, reaching fortifications that he took to be his target.
A cache of gold and other objects appeared in May 1873; Schliemann named it "Priam's Treasure". His wife Sophia later wore "the Jewels of Helen" for the public. Schliemann published his findings in 1874, in Trojanische Altertümer ("Trojan Antiquities"). This publicity backfired when the Turkish government revoked Schliemann's permission to dig and sued him for a share of the gold. Collaborating with Frank Calvert (an English expatriate who was a consular official in the eastern Mediterranean region and an amateur archaeologist), Schliemann smuggled the treasure out of Turkey. He defended his "smuggling" in Turkey as an attempt to protect the items from corrupt local officials. Priam's Treasure today remains a subject of international dispute.

娜芙蒂蒂(Nefertiti,公元前1370年 - 1330年)是埃及法老阿肯那頓(又譯「阿霍特普四世」)的王后。娜芙蒂蒂,埃及語的拼音為Nfr.t-jy.tj,原讀音為「娜芙泰塔」(Nafteta),意思是「美麗的人來了」,正如她的名字一樣,她長的妖冶嫵媚,美麗動人,是埃及第一美人。娜芙蒂蒂著名的半身像於1912年被德國考古學家博卡在埃及阿瑪納遺址發掘出土。娜芙蒂蒂半身像有三千三百年歷史,以石灰岩與灰泥雕塑成的彩繪人像,現藏德國柏林新博物館。(http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/娜芙蒂蒂)
The Wife of the Pharaoh Akhenaton, Nefertiti owes much of her fame to her beauty, immortalised in the 14th century BCE by her painted limestone bust. This sculpture was discovered in 1912 at Tell el-Amarna by German archaeologists. It is on display at the Neus Museum in Berlin.作者: 研邮堂主 时间: 2013-2-12 08:07
