Theseus Ring

As part of an initiative titled "The Unseen Museum," which casts the spotlight on items owned by Greek museums but hidden from public sight due to a lack of space, the National Archaeological Museum hosts a series of events focusing on an amazing artefact, the Ring of Theseus.

The ?Theseus Ring,? a gold signet ring unearthed in the Plaka district of Athens in the 1950s and dating back to the Mycenaean period, went on display on Monday for the first time at the Greek capital?s National Archaeological Museum.
