Comment

”On the 12th of July 1987, Nicolae Filip, Ștefan Tănase, Petre Șovar and the children Mihăiță and Florin Tănase, as they were rebuilding the fence of the Tănase family property, situated about 700 m from the end of the village of Bărăști, Cislău commune, Buzău county, in the area named “Dărâmături”, discovered a hoard. That location is in the north-western part of the Cislău Depression, at the foot of the Zamora hill, under the “Muchia Înaltă” peak.”
