_127 Gold armlets "This pair of late Bronze Age gold pennular armlets were found at Kilmallie, just outside Fort William. The fascinating story behind them relates to their discovery. In 1871 a crofter had a dream that he would find treasure if he dug at a certain spot. He dug at the spot and found these wonderful gold armlets. The crofter presented the armlets to the landowner, Cameron of Lochiel, who in return allowed the crofter to live on his land rent free for life. The armlets are on long term loan to the museum." eulac3d Prehistory Physical Object Prehistory IMAGE Irish "This pair of late Bronze Age gold pennular armlets were found at Kilmallie, just outside Fort William.
