Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Prehistoric Antiquities From Adichanallur and Perumbair The iron articles include swords, daggers, spear-heads, arrow-heads and other weapons used in warfare or in hunting, agricultural implements resembling the modern mammutti, though it is by no means certain that they were originally fixed at right angles to the shaft, and others more difficult to classify such as tridents two or three feet in length, and the peculiar hangers probably used for the suspension of iron saucer lamps of which several were found. The weapons and implements appear to have been inserted point downwards in the earth by the persons present at the interment.
