Description: | a medieval copper alloy mount. It is rectangular, 31.46mm in length and 7.47mm wide at one terminal. There is one rivet set at 11.75mm from the terminal, on the underside, and centrally placed. The mount broadens out to 8.98mm in width at the opposite terminal, which is incomplete. It is broken off across a rivet hole, which is set close to one long edge. The mount weighs 2.78g. The upper surface is decorated, with three narrow bands of incised line decoration defining three zones, in the first two of which are voided crosses formed by incised lines. The third zone includes the broken rivet hole terminal and any decoration is obscure. It is likely that this is a casket mount, and a similar example can be seen from medieval London, in Egan 1998, fig.50, no.155. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Carr, Jane - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
