Silver and gold diadem from the tomb of Philip II

The silver and gold diadem from the tomb of Philip II is part of a traveling exhibit called “The Greeks: From Agamemnon to Alexander the Great” that features an exclusive look at Ancient Greece from its early beginnings to Alexander the Great. The artifacts in the exhibition come from 21 different Greek museums, which have let their treasures go on a two-year tour, partly in hopes of reviving a fading tourism industry. After the exhibition in Chicago, it will move to the National Geographic Museum in Washington, D. C. where it will close on October 9, 2016.
