The Sant'Angelo Muxaro Patera is an ancient gold libation bowl that was discovered as part of a larger hoard in the seventeenth century near the hilltop town of Sant'Angelo Muxaro in Sicily, southern Italy. Since 1772, this rare and precious find has been part of the British Museum's Ancient Greek collection.〔British Museum Highlights ()〕 ==Provenance and history== The phiale was found in a tomb with three other bowls (two plain and another with bulls) which have since been lost.〔Comune di Sant'Angelo Muxaro ()〕 It later came into the possession of the famous diplomat and antiquary Sir William Hamilton, who sold it to the British Museum in 1772.〔British Museum Collection ()〕 Together the four bowls would have composed a prestigious treasure that probably belonged to a local monarch in Sicily. It may perhaps have been a gift to a Sicilian king from the western Greeks, as they migrated from the Greek mainland to the fringes of their new empire.
