_Bronze or Brass._--A curious spatula-like object of beaten bronze (=Fig. 147=). Three fibulæ and a ring pin (=Fig. 148=). The square-shaped portion at the top of the latter has a _swastika_ or _croix gammée_ on one side and a cross with four equal arms on the other. A spiral finger-ring with three twists, two portions of stout wire, and an object of unknown use. [Illustration: =Fig. 145.=--Carved--other side of Fig. 144 (1/1).] A bridle-bit having the centre-piece of iron and the side-pieces partly of iron and partly of bronze--the rings being iron and the looped portion bronze (=Fig. 149=). _Lead._--One round knob like the hilt of a handle. [Illustration: =Fig. 146.=--Iron Axe (½), Wooden Mallet (⅛), and Paddle (1/24).] [Illustration: =Fig. 147.=--Iron Prong (⅕), Iron Shears, (⅔), and Bronze Spatula (½).] _Pottery._--Portion of the bottom of a dish like Samian ware, and five fragments of a whitish unglazed ware with parallel striæ, as if made on the wheel. Fragment of a small crucible. [Illustration: =Fig. 148.=--Two Fibulæ (1/1) and a Ring Pin (½).] _Glass._--Two beads, one of earthenware of ribbed pattern and coated with green glaze, like those from Dowalton. (See =Fig. 132.=) The other is of green glass, smooth and shaped like dumb-bells. [Illustration: =Fig. 149.=--Bridle-bit (½).] _Leather._--Portion of a shoe and various bits of leather, one being closely set with copper nails (=Fig. 150=). _Miscellaneous._--Three portions of plain jet bracelets; another portion of jet is like part of a button; a boar's tusk worked into a sharp point; lumps of blue and red pigment, and large quantities of the horny coverings of insects like beetles, and one or two brilliant-coloured _elytra_; one solitary shell (_Littorina littorea_). [Illustration: =Fig. 150.=--Fringe made from Stems of a Moss (_Polytrichum commune_) (⅓), and piece of Thick Leather with Copper Nails (1/1).] An object which has excited considerable curiosity is an apparatus made like a fringe by plaiting together at one end the long stems of a kind of moss (=Fig. 150=). Portions of similar articles were found in three different parts of the crannog and all deeply buried. One portion of this moss was plaited in four plies and shaped like a cue or pig-tail. It measured 17 inches long and 2 broad in the middle, and tapered to a point. LOCHSPOUTS.
