Replica of the Folkton Drums, the originals are in the British Museum. See my visit log for links. The designs on these are outstanding, they were buried with a young child. No-one has a clue as to their function.

These are gorgeous, aren't they? On my list of the most interesting ancient artefacts to see one day.
