Context (Acquisition Details)
It is unclear when and how the Barrett collection came to MAA. A handful of objects were entered in the Z register in the 1920s, and an additional object formally entered in the Accession registers in 2006. There is no mention of the Barrett collection in the Annual Reports.

Context (Amendments / updates)
The period field previously read: '?Roman'. After discussion with Imogen Gunn, Collections Manager for Archaeology, these are more likely to be post medieval. The period field has been amended accordingly.
