Note 466 — Chapter XI
Reading edition
Full details of this, and of two other less perfect vessels discovered about the same time, at Thorsbjerg and Nydam, in S. Jutland, are given in the very interesting work by Mr. C. Engelhardt, entitled “Denmark in the early Iron Age,” Lond. 4to. 1866. From the frontispiece of this work the accompanying plate has been taken. Special attention has been called to it by Mr. J. H. Burton, to whose “History of Scotland” we are indebted for some of the notices of the Scandinavians.
