Numerous gold threads belonging to gold-woven fabric, which was laid as a third gift, were also found. The chest was placed in the mound of the mound at the stage of its filling, as a gift accompanying the soul of the buried Goth ruler, probably the Cauldron, known as an ally of Philip II of Macedon in their common struggle against the Scythians from 339 BC.
