Gift of thanks given by a citizen
In ancient Rome they had a tradition of giving crowns to people as rewards for there good deeds. Among them, the crown given to those who saved the life of a citizen of rome was the highest of honours. The one who was saved carved a crown from the branch of an oak and gave it to the one who saved them
Glory worth more than gold
The glory of having received the citizen's crown lasted for a lifetime, and such an individual was respected by all, regardless of these station in life. Don't you think that's quite a wonderful custom?
Those who had been bestowed with this honour were also allowed to order a special golden crown to be made. However, they had to pay for it themselves...
Investigation of the ruins of Pompeii
Although these crowns sent from a citizen remain in records, unfortunately a real example of one has never been found. Pompeii was a city in ancient Rome, so you might be able to find one there...
Crown of glory sleeping in the ruins
In ancient Rome it is said that one who saved a life of a citizen was awarded glory and a crown of invaluable worth. There is a chance that such a crown remains buried in the ruins of Pompeii, a city of ancient Rome. Head to the ruins of Pompeii from the outskirts of Napoli and search for yourself.

One of the ancient Roman compensation systems; a crown given to a citizen who saved the life of a Roman citizen. A crown made of gold was bestowed for other reasons, but this civic crown made of oak leaves was the higher honor. Only those who had received this award were granted permission to make gold versions of this award.
