Excavations1962-81 Royal Irish Academy. Full of things like fancy
sword beaters, shuttles, winders, scoops, spindle, boxes,carding 
comb handle, a really neat wolf toggle, knife handles, an awl with a 
dragon head, stylus, etc. Some furniture bits, boxes, carvings.
The awl has the blade bent nearly 90 degrees. I'm not gonna 
speculate on that one.

The decorated sword beaters and some of the other items are rather
neat. 102 pages, a bit bigger than the average big dover.
