Kingston Down Grave 284

No tumulus; grave about two feet and half deep ; bones very perfect; the coffin had passed the fire. On the left side of the skull lay the head of a small pilum.[1] Here also were a small brass buckle: the blade of a knife; and a small brass rivet.[1]The cut here introduced is from the originals in the Faussett Collection at Liverpool, named and dated, but not, as is usually the case, identified by sketches inserted in the manuscript. - C.R.S.
