Summary

Description

National Museum of Scotland.

One of the Stirling Torcs.

Found near Blair Drummond in 2009. One of four torcs dating from 300 to 100 BC. They had been buried in a wooden roundhouse (long rotted away).

This torc has disc-shaped terminals and is made from a twisted ribbon of gold, a simple design commonly made in Scotland and Ireland at the time.
