| Description (Catalog Card): | [A-F] Gold Ribbons. (6) All consist of long undulating coils, and are perforated at each end for attachment. 5 of these were found running at right angles to the diadem 9810 cf. Field Notes - the sixth was found beneath it and parallel to it; this one however may have slipped from above. One of the ribbons has a special interest as on its under side it shows the imprint of very fine network. Probably therefore the head was veiled. The 2 central ribbons are the longest; the side ribbons are shorter. 1 |
