We headed to the Budva city museum in the old town. Six Euros to get in, but well worth the price. What it lacked in explanations it more than made up for in variety of the items on display. Items from the Greeks to the Romans were presented. There were more modern items from the 1700's and 1800's as well. We were especially enthralled by the Roman glass pieces and the gold and beaded jewelry.
Back into the old town
So much in bloom
St. Vincent and Grenadines flag
A sea dragon in mosaic
the legs of a croc
Very small ceramic pieces all about 3 inches tall
One of the first novelty salt and pepper shaker sets?
A bronze helmet in great shape for being 2500 years old
Such fine detail
The huge gold ring had a human form in reverse used to stamp a design in wax
A spiral snake made of gold and snake earrings
Time to fly!
So delicate, the handles were no thicker than 2 or 3 mm
Just a few thousand years old
A small brooch
Very intricate rings and possible knitting needles
Roman coins
Now this is not a vest to go swimming in
Pistol packing Pete-ski
Wooden items and shadows
An old time mouse trap with little snares
A ukulele sized six stringed guitar
Back out into the old Town proper
Each ring was attached to a stone so they could be picked up for closer inspection but not easily stolen
In the poets square we found music
Playing the hits on flute and guitar
This little tower is now a pigeon condo
