Wooden armlets so shaped as to be almost triangular in 

 transverse section, the base of the triangle being inside and next 

 the arm the apex outside, or in other words the wood is carved 

 down to form a sharp pointed median ridge all round the armlet 

 on the outside. Pieces of sheet tin cut into small triangles, 

 ovals and crescents are let in to the wood and are so arranged 

 as to form simple patterns, such as two rows of triangles their 

 apices directed towards each other and towards the median 

 ridge, with ovals on the ridge itself alternating with them. 

 (Plate V. fig. 10, a). 



a. A row of ovals only on the median ridge. 

 Diameter 11-1 cm. ; depth 2-5 cm. ; thickness 1*6 cm.

 the median ridge, with a double row of crescents alternating 

 with them and brass studs on the median ridge.
