Book
The Etruscan Gold Book is the oldest multi-page book. It is made out of six sheets of 24-carat gold and it is bound with rings. The plates are inscribed in Etruscan characters and show a horse, horseman, a mermaid, and soldiers. The book was discovered in 1943 in a tomb while workers were digging a canal near the Struma River in Bulgaria and it lies in the National History Museum, Sofia, Bulgaria today.
