Description A beautifully made and polished slate wristguard that was part of the 'Shaman' grave goods (Upton Lovell G2a). A very elegant design. If you've ever shot a longbow without a wristguard you'll understand how vital they are to an archer. I wouldn't dare to use one any smaller than 4 times the size of this one! On display in Devizes Museum - well worth a visit.
