XVII.—On some of the Weapons of the Celtic and Teutonic Races. By John Yonge Akerman, F.S.A., Secretary

Abstract

In submitting the following remarks to the Society of Antiquaries, I must, at the outset, declare that my object is rather to review the evidence we possess, than to offer any conjecture or theory of my own. It will be by all allowed, that the careful bringing together of facts already known, but scattered and disconnected, must, at all times, tend to assist archaeological research, and save the trouble and tedium of referring to detached notices bearing on the subject of our inquiry.
