page 447 note 4 The analysis of the Welwyn finds was inconclusive in this respect; see Archaeologia, lxiii, 29, lines 14 ff.

page 448 note 1 It is relevant to recall that the Capel Garmon district yields evidence of occupation by well-to-do folk in widely sundered periods, Neolithic and Dark Ages. See Romilly Allen, loc. cit., p. 39.

page 448 note 2 In one respect the art of Capel Garmon (and Welwyn) is pre-Belgic, and has Iron Age B (north-eastern group) affinities. The spherical iron knobs are fixed on pins, as are the coral, glass, and amber knobs on smaller and earlier Celtic art-works. Romilly Allen noticed this: Arch. Camb., 1901, p. 41 f.
