The random find of a small piece of gold fitting in the cadastral territory of Kounice, district of Nymburk, is so far one of the few artefacts of Eastern provenance produced with the so-called cloisonné technique in Bohemia. Thanks to the use of archaeometric methods a whole range of remarkable information was found – the utilised stones are garnets from the Central Bohemian Uplands; the manufacturing technique of this jewel is at a relatively low level and it shows perhaps also signs of repairing; the purity of used gold is also relatively low. In terms of style, this object corresponds to production from Black Sea Lowland, but with regard to manufacturing quality it reminds rather Pannonian workshops from about the 2nd third of the 5th century. In the Bohemian region this is an extraordinary find. Nevertheless, according to discovery circumstances, it is possible to think that it represents an accidentally lost piece in the roads between the quite densely populated areas of Prague eastern edge (on the west side) and the drainage basin of the Výrovka river (on the east side).
