The Zitherixon Idol was another feature of the display.  I imagine the archaeologists would be very pleased to find another here.  In a book by Miranda Green 'Exploring the world of the Druids', she writes that it was found at Teigngrace, which is near the main clay mining area close to Newton Abbot.  The original is on display at RAMM, the Exeter museum.
