Description: | Cast copper alloy internal cruciform pendant that would have been suspended from a surrounding openwork pendant, now missing. Three sides of the cruciform terminate in knops, and the fourth side has an extended knop, beyond a transverse groove, which would have held the hole for the pin, had it not now been broken off. The centre of the cruciform is defined by four tranverse grooves, creating a convex square shape in the centre.
Read (2001) illustrates a similar example on page 58, Fig.37, No.470, which is dated to the 14th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Tyacke, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
