 * As usual from this source, a scrappy article that needs work. The first sentence is inaccurate for a start - ancient Thrace is in 3 modern countries at least. Dreadful hook. Johnbod (talk) 17:19, 1 May 2016 (UTC)


 * I have now fixed the disambiguation to Thrace. Sorry about missing it. has now edited the article and I have added her name to the credit list. We could not find more references on the subject. Instead of the original hook I am now suggesting the following two alt hooks. Nvvchar . 06:09, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

Alt1.... that a golden wreath (pictured), found in 2005 in the tomb of a Thracian ruler in Southeastern Bulgaria, was dated to the middle of 4th century BC?

Alt2 ... that a gold wreath from Thrace was recovered from an auction in 2015 and returned to Bulgaria’s National Museum of History?
 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article is new enough and long enough. Approving ALT1 which has an inline citation to a reliable source. The image is of this particular wreath and is appropriately licensed. The article is neutral and I did not detect any copyright issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:51, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
