Klang Bell
Found with a number of iron tools in the city of Klang, the cast bronze artefact is one of the only two examples of its type known; the other being from Battambang in Cambodia. Dated by archaeologists to the 2nd Century BC, it is probably a ceremonial object related to the bronze drums known from many parts of Southeast Asia and southern China. It was acquired by the British Museum in 1949.
