This rare medical kit from the Roman Age was found in a grave near Bansko in the 2nd-3rd century. It contains a bronze medicine box and a spoon, as well as 20 pills. The pills are made of minerals such as zinc for example. The little boot that you see on the top shelf contains organic substances that were used for reducing fever or healing wounds. There are also little spoons made out of bones for dosage, a stone tile for grinding and mixing medicine, and items that were used in ancient medical treatments in one way or another. All of the findings are unique for their time and place.
