CXXVI. A very narrow grave, only eighteen inches wide. A remarkable bronze ornament [KAS 379], of a very elegant and, I believe, an unique pattern. It is of a diamond shape, measuring an inch and a half by an inch and a quarter, and bears at its angles four ivory bosses, each pierced in the centre with a dot of lapis-lazuli. At its back are four bronze loops to fix it to the belt or dress. It is very substantially made, and in very perfect condition.
