Description: | Thin piece of copper alloy, roughly an isoceles triangle with one of the long edges curving outwards (3.8 x 3.8 x 2.5mm). No breaks, and quite possibly an object cut and redesigned to form another object. max 1mm thick, thinning to the curved and slightly jagged edge. Decoration in the form of three curving grooves that stop at the shortest edge (and possibly once continued beyond?) whilst fading towards the opposite corner. Possibly a Bronze Age sickle reused and redesigned as a razor? Seen by Stuart Needham. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
