Ancient Spanish Crown Found in Old Cathedral

MADRID, SPAIN.—Lost for sev-en centuries, the ancient Spanish crown of King Alfonso X, known as the " sage" is among precious his-toric relics that have been found in tombs in Toledo cathedral, accord-ing to information received here.

Spanish scholars in recent years have turned up a number of im-portant medieval relics in royal tombs and in some cases the dry climate has kept them almost in-tact. The finds in Toledo are among the most important of all, it was said by Prof. Manuel Gomez Mor-eno, noted Spanish archeologist.

Besides the crown, scholars found a sword at least 700 years old and in perfect condition, two of the fin-est specimens known o/ medieval brocades, a pair of silver spurs and one of fine gilded leather shoes more than 600 years old and in fine condition.

The relics are being prepared for display. The outstanding item is the crown. Known by a description left by Alfonso X, it had vanished from history with his death in 1284 until the tomb of his son, Sancho the Bold, v/as opened.
