Moel-y-Gaer (Loggerheads) submitted by Andy B on 23rd Oct 2012. A piece of vitrified material / flow slag, dimensions c. 15X10x10 cm.

Bishop Eastern Sierra Petroglyphs submitted by Andy B on 20th Nov 2012. An area in the Volcanic Tableland in eastern California where thieves apparently attempted to carve out a petroglyph and then decided to move on without it.
