Lot 1340
Celtic, 1st cent. AD, a small bronze Carnyx or sounding Bell, 6.2cm long by 3.5cm wide, hollow slightly curved shaft, boar’s head at the summit with a wide open mouth projecting forwards, circular eyes with a series of central curving crests or spines along its back, ears large and projecting; a small opening at the back may have been for the attachment of a wooden tongue. Very fine with an olive green patina £2,000-£3,000 --- Provenance: Found at Bardwell (Suffolk) in a grassy paddock 8-10 inches deep; PAS SF-5A50AE, listed as a find of note with no exact parallel. Although much smaller than the only other recorded carnyx from Britain (the Deskford carnyx found in 1816), the snarling open-mouthed boar with its bristling spine is a compelling argument that it is in fact a miniature sounding bell. Carnyxes were used in battle and ceremonies as lip-reed instruments. The bell would have been mounted on a vertical hollow pole with a mouthpiece at the bottom. Three carnyx players are illustrated on the famous Gundestrup cauldron
