Description: | A Late Bronze Age copper plano-convex ingot edge fragment. This fragment of ingot is sub rectangular in plan, with one distinctly curved edge, and is sub triangular in section. When complete the ingot would have been ??bun-shaped??, having a domed upper surface and a flat lower surface. The ingot now measures 52.54mm long, 30.64mm wide, 23.74mm thick and weighs 100.67g. The surfaces of the ingot are abraded and pitted. It is mostly bright green in colour which indicates its high copper content. Copper ingot fragments are common in hoards of the Ewart Park phase of the late Bronze Age c.1000-800 BC. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McDonald, Caroline - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
