| Abstract: |
A hoard consisting of a small penannular brooch of silver, two discs of transparent\r\nblue glass, two discs of variegated vitreous paste of turquoise blue, dull red, and yellow colours, and seven flat, rounded pebbles of reddish-brown quartzite and a baluster-shaped object of clear glass was apparently associated with a group of four undressed stones and "two or three pieces of steel or wrought iron, apparently the remains of some weapons, as well as a number of small bones". A bronze cup and a glass disc or gaming counter are also thought to have been part of the group. A human tooth was found inside the glass cup. |
