Ancient celt and fragment of a Roman urn

A 'celt' was a prehistoric implement with a chisel-shaped sharp edge.
It is often now called an 'axe-head'

On the illustration, the writing next to 'An Ancient Celt' says 'Length 7 inches' and next to 'Fragment of a Roman Urn' it says 'Diameter at top 8 inches, height 4 1/2 inches'

From: The portfolio, 1823,1824
