Description: | A lead casting sprue or jet, oval in shape, measuring 24.2mm in length and 14.7mm in width, and 13.2mm in thickness. The upper face of this sprue is flat and the lower face has three casting spurs, tapering to rounded points. Metal working debris, such as this example is very difficult to date and it could therefore date from the Roman to the post-medieval period, especially due to it being lead, a material not so commonly used in the Bronze Age. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
