The type of Fig. 54 has also been found. I have a specimen (6 inches) from Ballinamallard, near Enniskillen. Palstaves without a stop-ridge, and with broad lozenge-shaped wings, like Fig. 56, are of rare occurrence. One of nearly the same type, but having a low projecting ridge between the wings, is shown in Fig. 93. [Illustration: Fig. 93.—Ireland. ½] [Illustration: Fig. 94.—Ireland. ½] I have another from Armoy, Co. Antrim (6 inches), with a still slighter transverse ridge, which forms the upper boundary to a shield-shaped projection on the blade, on which is a central vertical ridge with two others on each side less definitely marked. The base of the shield is pointed. A not uncommon type has a very high stop-ridge coming up to the level of the side wings, the blade above the stop-ridge being somewhat thinner than it is below. An example is shown in Fig. 94. I have another from County Antrim, in which the lower part of the blade has a slight median vertical ridge. In a palstave in the Museum of the Royal Irish Academy,[372] with elliptical wings, a long fusiform boss has been cast in the centre of the blade. [Illustration: Fig. 95.—Ireland. ½] In another instrument in the same collection the whole blade is thickened out so as to form the stop-ridge, as will be seen in Fig. 95. In other cases the ridge of the wings is continued as a moulding on the face of the blade, so as to enclose a space below the stop-ridge. From the base of this there sometimes proceeds a vertical rib, as seen in Fig. 96. Inverted chevrons by way of ornament below the stop-ridge are not uncommon, sometimes with a vertical rib in addition. Such compartments are often seen on the winged celts, with only a slight stop-ridge. Fig. 97 shows an example from Lanesborough, Co. Longford, now in the collection of Canon Greenwell, F.R.S. The compartment is ornamented with vertical punch marks. The outside of the wings is faceted after a fashion not unusual in Ireland, but there is here a slight shoulder at the base of the central facet which may have assisted in securing the blade to the handle. On a specimen at Dublin there are on the otherwise flat sides elevated transverse ridges, which, as Sir W. Wilde[373] has pointed out, may have served “to keep the tying in its place.” [Illustration: Fig. 96.—North of Ireland. ½] [Illustration: Fig. 97.—Lanesborough. ½] [Illustration: Fig. 98.—Trillick. ½] The sides of other specimens of much the same type are otherwise fashioned and ornamented. In Fig. 98 is shown a celt from Trillick, Co. Tyrone, on the sides of which a kind of fern-leaf pattern has been hammered, or rather punched, not unlike the carving on one of the stones in the great chambered tumulus of New Grange. The shield plate has two vertical hollows worked on it. The side of a celt ornamented in the same manner is engraved by Wilde.[374]
