Reply to comment by [deleted] in Gold from ancient Troy, Poliochni and Ur had the same origin by Darth_Kahuna

You'd be surprised. From the British Isle's, to modern day Georgia, central Asia, Spain, Greece, the greater Balkans, and more. There was a relative large amount of gold being mined from many places in the Bronze Age.
