 | | Judging from the style they were made and used by the Avar khaganate - the Union of the Obrai ("Pseudo-Avars"), Bulgarian Slavs, and Kotragoi of Panonia and Srem. |
 | | Once Sotheby exhibited the new treasures, which could also could have belonged to some of the Khagans of the Avar-Koutrigur state, encompassing the Panonian plains, Srem, Banat, Baranya, Slavonia, together with present day Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dalmatia and some parts of Monte Negro, Albania and Macedonia the question is increasingly intriguing. |
 | | Werner notes that the treasuries of "Avar rulers" were always "in close proximity to the Khagan", hence Vrap and Erseka indicate a central region, a seat of a ruler. |
