^{page 413 note 3} Rees, Lives of the Cambro-British Saints, 171: ‘reconditum in medio quadrangularium lapidum erecte insistentium in cimiterio, cruce lapidea supposita.’

The Life dates from the twelfth century, and the writer confuses St. Sampson, bishop of Dôl (flor. c. 550), who was buried there, with Abbot Sampson of Llantwit (flor. c. 875); but the monument was probably still in existence when he wrote. Westwood (Lapidarium Walliae, p. 11) suggests that the cross of St. Sampson at Llantwit is that mentioned.

^{page 415 note 1} It was only found early this spring, and does not appear on the general plan.

^{page 415 note 3} Two fragments of similar bowls have now been recognized among the finds from Porthmeor, a native site in West Cornwall (cf. Antiq. Journ. xiv, 193). I have recently, by the courtesy of Colonel Hirst, examined the pottery. This covers the period A.D. 100–300 or even later. The difference between the finds from the two sites is very striking.

^{page 415 note 4} I am indebted to Dr. R. E. M. Wheeler for this suggestion. Since writing this article I have seen a similar ware from late Roman and sub-Roman sites in Southern France and Catalonia.
