In the British Museum are also several Irish hammers, one of which is shown full size in Fig. 215, for the use of which I am indebted to the Council of the Society of Antiquaries.[635] It is cylindrical in form, with two rings of projecting knobs around it. The end is circular and slightly convex, and has a ridge across it, due to constant use. Another, found, with trumpets, spear-heads, and numerous other bronze relics, at Dowris,[636] King’s County, is shown in Fig. 216, also lent me by the same Council. It is of a different type from any of the others, expanding beyond the socket into a large flat blade. It appears never to have been in use. Two other small Irish specimens, one with a long oval face, are in the British Museum. I have a hammer (2½ inches) much like Fig. 210, but with the shoulder nearer the top, found with a socketed celt and some perforated and other rings, near Trillick, Co. Tyrone. I have also an imperfect specimen with the end expanded, but not to the same extent as Fig. 216. This was found with a broken sword, spear-heads, and a socketed knife, on Bo Island, Enniskillen, and was kindly procured for me by the Earl of Enniskillen. [Illustration: Fig. 215.—Ireland. 1/1] [Illustration: Fig. 216.—Dowris. 1/1] Socketed hammers have been found in several European countries. I have two from France. One of them (3½ inches), like Fig. 212 in form, was found, with a spear-head, a double-edged knife, some curved cutting tools, and an anvil of bronze (Fig. 217), together with a large torque and a plain bracelet of gold, at Fresné la Mère, near Falaise, Calvados. The other (2 inches), stouter in its proportions and more like Fig. 210, was found near Angerville, Seine et Oise. A short thick hammer was found at Briatexte, Tarn.[637] An instrument in the British Museum, in form much like Fig. 216, found at Vienne (Isère?), has only a small square hole in the socket, and may have served as an anvil rather than as a hammer. A hammer also with expanded end was found near Chalon,[638] and another in the Valley of the Somme.[639] A cylindrical hammer or anvil was found in the hoard of the Jardin des Plantes at Nantes.[640] Cylindrical hammers have been found among the Lake-dwellings of the Lac du Bourget,[641] Savoy, one of them provided with a loop. M. Rabut, of Chambéry, has a stone mould from the same lake for casting such hammers. Another hammer-mould of stone was found at the Station of Eaux Vives, near Geneva.
