Among all the hoards containing ceremonial akinakai, (swords and daggers of Iranian origin), the assemblage of items discovered in 1882 near the village of Vettersfelde (Poland) is the most internally coherent. Judging by the motifs present on the golden objects richly decorated in the animal style – a fish-shaped plaque, a clover-shaped phalera and a sheath ornament of a sword – they make up a unified ensemble, most likely the result of one ritual event. The source of the items from Vettersfelde is usually associated with the Milesian colonies of the Pontic region, in which a certain artistic bilingualism is documented, with both Greek and ‘barbarian’ influences to be seen. Most likely, the choice of visual metaphors in the narrative was not accidental but something recognized both by the creator and the recipient. If the provenance for its manufacture is extended beyond the northern or western coast of the Black Sea, then the Milesian colonies of Eastern Greece could also claim that role. In particular, for a number of reasons, Cyzicus is a suitable candidate.

VETTERSFELDE 囤积：整体解构

在所有包含仪式akinakai的宝库中，（源自伊朗的剑和匕首），1882 年在维特斯费尔德（波兰）村附近发现的物品组合是内部最连贯的。从动物风格装饰丰富的金色物品上的图案来看——鱼形饰牌、三叶草形头骨和剑鞘装饰——它们构成了一个统一的整体，很可能是一次仪式事件的结果. Vettersfelde 的物品的来源通常与庞蒂克地区的米利西亚殖民地有关，其中记录了某种艺术双语，希腊和“野蛮人”的影响都可以看到。很可能，叙事中视觉隐喻的选择不是偶然的，而是创作者和接受者都认可的东西。如果它的制造来源延伸到黑海北部或西部海岸之外，那么东希腊的米利西亚殖民地也可以声称这一角色。特别是，出于多种原因，Cyzicus 是一个合适的候选人。
