Title
Modern jewellery hoard
Description
English: A collection of Victorian jewellery, deposited as a 'hoard'. The deposit includes ear rings, necklaces, fragments from 'charm bracelets', and similar items. The metal is now very degraded and unidentifiable, but some of the bracelets bear copper alloy pendants and decorative stones (pebbles, rather than gemstones). The interest of this find lies in its mode of deposition; the entire collection was deposited in the ground, tangled together amongst metal wire. The reasons for such deposition remain unclear, but the action must have been deliberate, and an assoication with witchcraft cannot be ruled out.
