Description: | Late Saxon incomplete D-shaped Ringerike style buckle frame, elongated rectangular lobe with tiny notches along outer edge, the inner edge defined by an engraved rocker-arm line, projects from centre of outside edge, one curving side survives with lobes providing ear and snout for animal-head terminal with tiny fragment of vertical narrowed bar. There is further engraved decoration around the side and outlining the eye. Similar buckle frames are known from Norfolk and there is one buckle with plate from North Norfolk. A further example from Norwich (156) has been published (Norwich Households no.128), and larger buckle frames of similar type have been found in Barton Bendish (18852) and West Walton (18947). Two similar buckle frames can be seen in a female burial from Nomeland, Valle parish, Aust-Agder in Norway. The find is recorded as no. 30539 (Pers. comm. and photograph of grave group via Anne Pedersen, National Museum of Denmark). 11th century. | Subjects: | Anglo-Scandinavian Ringerike | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bales, Ellen - Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
