Tumulus and grave much as the last. Very sound bones of a young person; the coffin did not appear to have passed the fire. Near the neck was one amethyst drop of an ear-ring, or bead; a round button-like ivory or boxen ornament for the neck [M 6344]: it has a small ringle in its edge to hang it by. Here was also a bracelet or armilla of brass wire [M 6345]. The blade of a knife; several bits of iron, whose form could not be discovered, and some nails.
