Book Description
The greatest tales of epic fantasy sometimes begin with a humble little bauble: a gem with mysterious powers, an amulet with a terrible curse ...or a ring that renders the wearer invisible. As the story goes on, though, these amazing items gradually reveal the full extent of their powers--and, often, the true nature of their destinies. Continuing the rules developed in Artifacts of the Ages: Swords and Staves, this book presents magic gems and jewelry that grow in power as wielders advance in level, allowing you to introduce artifact-caliber magic items to your campaign without giving the player characters too much power too early. Artifacts of the Ages: Rings provides gamemasters with rules for not just rings, but necklaces, bracelets, crowns, gems, and other such items of extraordinary power. Artifacts of the Ages: Rings is the second in a series of innovative sourcebooks examining new ways to treat magic items in fantasy d20 System campaigns.

Dun Ailinne
Author: Susan A. Johnston
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 1934536407
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
The site of Dún Ailinne is one of four major ritual sites from the Irish Iron Age, each said to form the center of a political kingdom and thus described as "royal." Excavation has produced artifacts ranging from the Neolithic (about 5,000 years ago) through the later Iron Age (fourth century CE), when the site was the focus of repeated rituals, probably related to the creation and maintenance of political hegemony. A series of timber structures were built and replaced as each group of leaders sought to claim ancient descent from a deep past and still create something unique and lasting. Pam J. Crabtree and Ronald Hicks provide analyses on, respectively, biological remains and Dún Ailinne's role in folklore, myth, and the sacred landscape, while Katherine Moreau examines bronze and iron artifacts and Elizabeth Hamilton, slag.
