Gold pediment-shaped diadems 330-300 BC. These diadems are made of thin sheet gold with die-formed designs. The most elaborate of them has a central palmette and winged figures on either side with scroll work beyond. The Kyme Treasure contained fragments of at least 11 such diadems: they were probably made especially for the tomb.
