NJ72NE 39 c. 75 28.
There is a stone whorl from Daviot (NJ 75 28) in Aberdeen Regional Museum.
(Undated) information from Accession Register, Aberdeen Regional Museum.
This spindle whorl was noted by the Ordnance Survey in 1969, when it formed part of a joint display in Aberdeen Regional Museum. The objects for the display were drawn from several museums, including Aberdeen City Museum and Art Gallery, Marischal Museum, and including Inverurie Museum. Unfortunately, the Ordnance Survey did not note the accession number of the whorl and it has not been possible to identify which of the museum collections it belonged to.
