Wide and shallow, with short decorated handles, they are thought to have been used for divining (telling the future), with liquid dripped from the spoon with the hole onto the other.

Yesterday and #Penbryn beach and the "CAVE OF DOOOOM!" plus a very beautiful headland church with some unusual headstones Oh and Mark waving 👋 (at Penbryn Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP9CFLxrx0y/?utm_medium=tumblr

Penbryn to Llangrannog  |  by longstack

A barbecue on the beach accompanied by my best friends, what better way to spend a bank holiday?

In honour of St Davids Day‬ here are the wonderful Penbryn Spoons, which were found in 1829 beneath a heap of stones inside the Castell Nadolig hillfort, near Penbryn in #Ceredigion, Wales. The pair of cast bronze ‘spoons’ date to the Late Iron Age (c. 50 BC–AD 100). They are extremely rare with only ten pairs known from Britain. The spoons are thought to have been used for divining (telling the future), with liquid dripped from the spoon with the hole onto the other.
