Record ID: BUC-512D81
Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Milton Keynes
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A roughly C-shape iron object that may have been joined originally into a circle. This consists of two strands of 3mm thick wire that open to make four almost elliptical holes. The finder feels that this object could be a finger ring but although iron finger rings are known from Roman sites these are very different from this example. Despite extensive research it has not been possible to discover what this object is.

Record ID: NMS-2314D4
Object type: SPEAR
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Milton Keynes
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Iron spearhead, in quite firm condition but with part of the socket including the proximal end missing. The slightly bent leaf-shaped blade is narrow and elongated. Both its faces are flat, i.e. without a midrib. The socket is not split. Extant length 148mm. Width 17mm. The slenderness and the small size suggest the object is not a theatrical object, but that it may be "ethnographic", from somewhere outside Europe. The date is uncertain.
