Hassle treasure

All of the items were imported. The cauldron belongs to a special kind of cultic cauldron usually found in Italy and Greece, while the buckets are of a kind found in southern and central Europe.
The artifacts are now at the Swedish History Museum in Stockholm with copies on display in the Örebro County Museum. The burial ground at Hassle has the RAÄ number Glanshammar 54: 1.
