Description: | Hooked tag with sub-triangular head, probably dating to the late 7th century. The object is decorated with two rows of punched circle and dot designs and terminates with two holes at the attachment end. The hooked end is stepped leading onto a complete hook. Hooked tags, worn either singly or in pairs, are usually associated with female individuals. They were used in various ways, presumably to secure different items of clothing. They are delicate objects, however, which limits the uses they may have been used for. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
