The discovery of Al-Khanoum, an ancient Greek city in Bactria, highlights the marked influence of Hellenistic culture on the region. Established in the 3rd BC, Al-Khanoum reveals the Greek presence through its language, theatrical and sporting structures, and Greek-inspired architecture. Excavations highlight the importance of Hellenistic culture in the city, with a Greco-Bactrian population including talented artists. In the 2nd CENTURY BC, nomadic invasions prompted inhabitants to migrate to Kapisa and Gandhara, influencing the region's art, particularly in the north-west. Gold crowns found in these regions illustrate technical excellence. Used in ceremonies to reward athletes, victorious soldiers or as royal finery, these crowns were also engagement gifts and ornaments worn at wedding banquets. The finesse of the details and the delicacy of the chasing testify to the skill of the silversmiths. Although fragile, these gold crowns were seldom worn and often replaced by plant versions during festivities. Those made of precious materials were favored for funerary contexts, as they symbolized the success of the deceased.
