(2013-02-19) | I had a look online to find out more about these Ear studs but came up with no detail. Could you point me towards the source please? They look like they are made of wood which raises the possibility that they were made with a spindle lathe. A fantastic survival. If only the those early Antiquarians had left a few more Cists. | optilith
