Oil lamp / Kola |
A stone bowl with a handle. Used as a light source. Fish oil, or other type of liquid fat, was put in the bowl and a wick into the oil. The wick was lit at the end, burning the oil as it was drawn up the wick. The bowl was found in Borgarfjörður in East Iceland. By that time the handle was broken off but was repaired by the finder. |

Neolithic Macehead |
Found in Gruinart on the north of Islay and dating from the Neolthic period or the early Bronze Age, this macehead would originally have been mounted on a shaft. Creating the macehead would have been a very time-consuming process, boring the hole with a wooden drill bit with sand and water. Due to the length of time it took to make, and the skill required, it could have been used as a weapon, but would more likely have been used as a ceremonial weapon and a symbol of power. |
