LANCASHIRE. 
A curious antique helmet and 
difcoveyed fome time fince,at Ribchefter, in 
this county, were lately” exhibited at the 
‘meeting of the fociety of antiquarians, where 
they excited fo much admiration, that their 
draftman, Mr. Underwood, was ordered to 
make corre&t drawings of them for the ufe of 
the fociety. The helmet is Roman, and ap- 
pears to have been executed between the 
reigns of Septimus Severus and Conftantine. 
The defign of the figures which decorate it is 
very grand, and fuperior to the execution. 
—The mafk which was found attached to the 
helmet is of the firtt Grecian workmanship, 
and is probably the production of the age of. 
Alexander the Great. The cognofcenti are 
not agreed as to its charafter, fome taking it 
for a Bacchus, others for a Medufa; but all 
concur in pronouncing it one of the fineft pie- 
ces of antique fculpture ever difcovered in 
this or any other country. Thefe valuable 
reliques were found by mere accident; a boy 
fliding down a bank, part of the earth gave 
way, and led to the important difcovery. 
Other antiques, of lefs value, have been 
fubfequently dug up in the fame place: a 
ftandard, and fome inftruments for facrifice. 
They feem to have been depofited with great 
care; a cube of about eight feet of the natu- 
ral foil having been cleared away, and the 
{pace filled with dry fand, with the various 
articles in the middie. ‘Thefe reliques now 
enrich the magnificent collection of antiqui- 
ties belonging to Charles Townley, eiq.
