Arms of Offence and Defence. Horse-trappings. Chariot Fittings. Personal Ornaments. Toilet Appliances. Domestic Appliances. Musical Instruments. Objects for Religious Use. Objects of Unknown Use. POTTERY AND GLASS. Sepulchral Urns. Vessels for Domestic Use. Beads for Necklaces. WOODWORK AND BONEWORK. Vessels for Domestic Use. Dress-fasteners. Spatulæ. STONEWORK. Sculptured Monuments. The arms of offence and defence of the Late-Celtic period are made of metal; the sword-blades, dagger-blades, and lance-heads being of iron; and the sword-sheaths, dagger-sheaths, shields, and helmets of bronze. In this country the bronze objects only are ornamented.[187] [187] A lance-head of iron from La Tène, in Switzerland, is ornamented with engraved patterns, but nothing of a similar kind has been found in Great Britain (E. Vouga, _Les Helvètes à La Tène_, pl. 5).
