(QNO) - The original collection of gold and animal-shaped agate beads dated from the 3rd century BC was firstly presented to the public in Quang Nam province.
On June 17, the Quang Nam Museum opened a special exhibition titled “Cham Culture in Ninh Thuan- Quang Nam” and “National Treasures - The Quintessence of Quang Nam Heritage”, featuring nearly 200 images, documents, and artefacts.
The exhibition was a collaboration between the Quang Nam Relics and Museum Management Board, the Centre for Ethnic Cultural Studies, and the Ninh Thuan Museum.
The exhibition included three rare original artefacts recognised as national treasures in 2015. the head of a Shiva statue (10th century, Cham culture), an animal-shaped agate beads from Lai Nghi (3rd century BCE to 1st century CE), and a collection of gold jewellery from Lai Nghi with four gold earrings and 104 gold beads (Sa Huynh culture).
These items were excavated between 2002 and 2004 at the Lai Nghi burial site in Dien Nam Dong (Dien Ban). In 2024, they were officially recognized as national treasures.
The exhibition not only showcased the artistry and heritage of ancient cultures but also aimed to deepen public understanding of Cham and Sa Huynh civilisations.
It highlighted the cultural connection between Ninh Thuan and Quang Nam and emphasised the importance of preserving national heritage.
Visitors, especially students, were drawn to the exhibition, which brought to life the stories and significance of these ancient artefacts, serving as a powerful reminder of Vietnam’s rich and diverse cultural past.
