Context (Amendments / updates)
"A and B could not be located, September 1997. Given that there was no description given for these two items on the catalogue card, we can assume that they have been misplaced for some time. It is possible that they have been re-accessioned."
Noted by Alison Brown, August 1998. The object image and details were taken from the Rymill Collection binders which were photocopied to produce the unpublished "Catalogue of the Rymill Collection in the University of Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology" by Alison K. Brown, 1998, (MAA Archives FA5/1/12).
