The Golden Orphism Book (Bulgarian: Златна орфическа книга), also known as the Etruscan Gold Book, is a Thracian artefact consisting of six connected sheets of gold. The small sheets contain writing identified as Etruscan, together with images of two people carrying a large vessel; a horned animal; a horse and its helmeted rider; a musical instrument, perhaps a lyre; a siren; and two people carrying shields.
