The Adabrock Hoard is a collection of Late Bronze Age artefacts deposited at Adabroc, Isle of Lewis, Scotland around 1000-800 BC.[1] The artefacts comprise two bronze socketed axeheads, a spearhead, a gouge, a hammer, three razors, as well as fragments of decorated bronze vessel, two whetstones and beads of glass, amber and gold.[1][2] The hoard was discovered in peat, at a depth of 9–10 feet, by Donald Murray in May 1910.[3][4] The hoard was acquired shortly after discovery by the National Museum of Antiquities of Scotland (now National Museums Scotland) and is accessioned as X.DQ 211-227.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

Discovery

The Adabrock Hoard was discovered by Donald Murray while cutting peat for fuel in May 1910.[3] The hoard was excavated by the finder, who described the artefacts as being 'all in one group, the smaller things above and the heavier below'.[3]
