"Haudenosaunee" - well spotted. I wasn't too bothered in comparing the materials but simply the function and the way they're worn. Here's a long link to some information about the items in question ( http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=5D2RVNM0TAQC&pg=PA518&lpg=PA518&dq=gold+basket+earrings&source=web&ots=F1_cmveYVB&sig=PDPBWAk8spFl8UUak2p66Xocyv4&hl=en ). The one in question is in a museum case about half a mile away and I go and look at it sometimes. The barrow it came from is on the periphery of a very large stone circle I've found - so it all fits together - and I guess one of the diggers snaffled the other one. Either that or it's still in the ground and waiting for a metal detectorist to locate it.
