The Treasure of the Oxus: With Other Objects from Ancient Persia and India is a book written by Ormonde Maddock Dalton and published in 1905.

The book includes photographs and descriptions of the Oxus Treasure, which consists of gold and silver objects, such as cups, bowls, and jewelry, dating back to the Achaemenid Empire (550-330 BCE). Dalton also discusses other ancient artifacts from Persia and India, including pottery, coins, and sculptures. In addition to the descriptions of the objects, the book provides historical context for the artifacts and discusses their significance in the ancient cultures that produced them.
