Description: | Incomplete Medieval lead pilgrim’s ampulla, probably dating from the 13th to the 15th century. The neck of the ampulla is missing and the body is closed. The obverse face depicts a scallop shell design with sharp ribs producing a corrugated surface and notched edges, and defining the ampulla as a Spencer’s (1990) type I. At the top of the fragment a raised arc on both sides defines the edge of the scallop motif, and the small surviving area above this, is plain. The reverse face is decorated with a six-pointed star within a circle. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
