Extract

The Late Bronze Age hoard found at Guilsfield, Montgomeryshire, as well as being the largest and best known from Wales and the Marches, has also been one of the most discussed. Dr. H. N. Savory has recently reviewed the find with the aim of making clear its true content, and with the intention of setting the hoard in its proper local and national context. Consequently, he has provided ‘a reasonably complete set of measured drawings’ and inventory, and the most detailed analysis and evaluation of the hoard hitherto attempted. The present writer has been independently engaged in the study of the same hoard and feels that further critical evidence can be adduced to clarify the nature and significance of this important find. In view of these facts, and bearing in mind the large number of important studies of this period which have been published in the last few years, yet another discussion of the find seems desirable.
