Online:Gold Coast Antiquities

This is a list of all of the Antiquities that are found in the Gold Coast.

	Name	Antique Map of the Gold Coast		N/A	Reginus Buca I think it's fairly obvious that this is a depiction of the Gold Coast. A beautifully rendered one at that. Amalien It's interesting to think about maps drawn before and after the construction of Varen's Wall. Each tell quite a different story about the land and it's people! Verita Numida I'd be curious to see a map of this area from the First Era, if such a thing could ever be found. All that remains of the great Ayleid settlements is broken marble and subterranean dangers. A fitting end for such a terrible people.

	Name	Ornate Nose Ring		250	Reginus Buca Here's a pretty thing. This resembles the rings one might find in the nose of an unruly bull. Far more ornate, though. Much larger, too. This is an odd discovery. The rocky terrain around Kvatch is better suited for goats than cattle. Verita Numida Let's not sidestep the obvious, Reginus. This clearly hung from the snout of an ancient minotaur. It displays a level of craftsmanship we don't typically see in Minotaur attire, though. And what are these etchings. Clasped hands? Amalien Not clasped, Verita. The hands seem to be struggling over the same object--trying to steal it from one another. Is it the Amulet of Kings? Might this imply some discontent about Imperial governance? Or even stand as a call to rebellion?

	Name	Water-worn Anvil Bust		1,000	Verita Numida According to Imperial histories, Anvil enjoyed a rich statuary tradition in the early years of the First Empire--before the Alessian Order made such artistic expression more difficult. This face appears very eroded, though. Amalien Look at the position of the neck. It seems to be looking up, to me. Fishermen in Anvil swear that broken statues rest at the bottom of the pond under the famous mermaid. Could something or someone be looking up at her? I'd check, but I can't swim! Reginus Buca We don't have nearly enough evidence to be able to associate this disembodied head with the Mermaid of Anvil. I'll grant you, the stone appears similar in composition, but the face looks like statues of regency council lords in nearby Kvatch to me.

	Name	Book of Dark Rites		5,000	Gabrielle Benele We've stumbled upon something truly dangerous here. The cover should serve as your first clue; black leather that seems to shiver into goosebumps at the slightest touch. And the contents are no better. Page after blood-stained page depicting murders of every variety. What I find most disturbing is this "Rite of Penance." It's not like the Black Sacrament. The sigils and physical components feel consistent with a summoning ritual. But what could an assassin summon that's worse than himself?

	Name	Shrine to Dibella		0	Verita Numida Clearly a shrine, most likely to Dibella, but whatever statue or effigy lay at the center is long since gone. Amalien Perhaps a Dibella sect local to this region? The modern Gold Coast enjoys lavish luxuries, but perhaps this group was more frugal. Verita Numida More likely time, theft, and exposure has scoured away whatever made this shrine unique. Still a beautiful piece, and one worth preserving.

	Name	Golden Idol of Morihaus		N/A	Ugron gro-Thumog Gilded, Imperial bust depicting a winged bull? It's got to be Morihaus, the bull-faced lover of Alessia. The questions with Morihaus is always, "how literal is too literal?" and "Is this literal enough?" I'm sure Reginus and Amalien have opinions …. Reginus Buca The sculptor clearly did not intend for the viewer to take this as a literal depiction. The vacant, bovine affect on the subject's face reveals no heroic personality, and the wings are far too small. This is a symbolic representation of the subject. Amalien Obviously, the bust is symbolic. But that does nothing to prove Morihaus looked like you, Reginus! Surely, the existence of minotaurs is proof enough that chimeric creatures exist. A demigod exhibiting those traits is well within the realm of possibility!

	Name	Meridian Sconce		N/A	Verita Numida To the untrained eye, this sconce might appear to portray Kynareth, but it depicts nothing of the sort. This is a votive chandelier to the Daedric Prince, Meridia, guaranteed. Hardly the sort of thing you'd want lighting your dining room table. Gabrielle Benele As Daedric Princes go, she's not all that bad. What interests me is the craftsmanship. Someone built a shrine to her in Skyrim, granted. But this hardly seems Nord-inspired. Those curled arms feel Nibenese to me. Odd to find it in Colovia. Ugron gro-Thumog If there's a difference between Nibenese and Colovians, you would barely notice. In any case, I'd date this back to 1E 1900's. Some Daedra-worshiper probably took it to the coast to escape the Alessian Order's inquisitors. Guess it didn't work out.
