Tumulus and grave, much as the last. The coffin appeared to have been very thick, and to have passed the fire; the bones were almost gone. Near the skull was a brass pin with a flatted head, an inch and six-eighths long [M 6405]; it is doubtless an acus crinalis; near the neck were one large bead and three small ones; and a brass armilla or bracelet [M 6503]; near the feet were the iron handle of a box, and some small pieces of iron. A woman's grave.
