Sarre Grave 174
CLXXIV. A woman's grave. A small ivory pin or bodkin [KAS 326], swelling in the middle and ornamented with grooves where it is widest, and with little round holes on the head; some pieces of iron, and parts of two bone combs [KAS 471 & KAS 472]. One of these fragments is very curious, the comb having worked on a hinge in a case or handle, like the pocket combs of our own day.
