During archaeological excavations near Kleinosida (Burgenlandkreis) a woman's grave of the Thuringian culture of the Iron Age (5th century BC) was uncovered. Around the neck of the deceased was a twisted bronze neck ring with bird head ends. #Archaeology 
Although bird symbolism has been known since the Bronze Age, the style of the neck ring speaks in favor of an Iron Age dating.
This is so far the only early Latène neck ring with bird head ends of the Thuringian culture, which clearly shows Celtic influences.
