very similar Pin, with the head beaten out flat and thin, 4]in. long 

 has quite recently (1911) been added to the Museum. It was found 

 casually by a shepherd near Shepherd's Shore (No. 273). 



Of articles of personal adornment the most notable are the 

 Armlets, or BraceletSj^of which twelve are recorded from Wiltshire, 

 chiefly of the two types here illustrated. Seven of these (Nos. 

 277—283), two of which are in the Blackmore Museum, and five 

 at Devizes, are from barrows near Lake. They are penannular 

 bracelets of plain strong thick bronze, square or oval in section.

Three others are made of broad bands of bronze, also penannular, 

 two of them (Nos. 275, 276), from South Lodge Camp, at Kushmore 

 and from a barrow at Lake, have their surface fluted or channelled, 

 while the tliird (No. 274), found on the arm of a skeleton in a 

 barrow at Amesbury, is a broad flat band of bronze l-Hn. wide, with 

 the ends overlapping, the surface engraved with four horizontal 

 bands of vertical lines. 



Two fragments of a ]]racelet formed of twisted bronze wire 

 (No. 284), with hook fastenings, from a barrow at Amesbury, are 

 in the Stourhead Collection, which apparently were found by Hoare 

 in an inverted urn containing burnt bones in a barrow. 



Three spiral Kings of strong bronze of three or four coils eacli, 

 wliich may have been finger rings, or possibly ornaments, were 

 found in connection witli tlie plain Ijracelets mentioned above, and 

 the Tor(iu('s nicnlioneil Ixilow, in a barrow or ])arrow.s near Lalu*. 

 It is very greatly to be regretted that no account is i)re.served of
