Booleybrien

Description: Class II end blow. 4 cones and 4 holes at end, 4 cones at bell, External curvilinear length 2’ 2". Found in a hoard in association with a sun-flower pin, two socketed axes, two rings, three bronze rings with transverse perforations, eleven some triple, and a sword-hilt fragment. According to MacWhite, the form of the chain-links, the sun-flower pin and the transversely perforated rings find clearly to Late Bronze Age B, more probably early in this phase than late (c. 600-400 BCE) (He cites Raftery 1942: p.64).
