Description: | Cast copper-alloy object of probably post-medieval date. The object shows a human figure, naked apart from a cloth draped over the object's left hip, coming between the knees in front and ending in the back, at the side of the object's left thigh. The hair shows some articulated locks. The arms are raised and form the support for the candle-stick holder, this being a sub-circular disc resting atop the head, with a diameter of 18.54 mm. The dis has a cylindrical hole in the centre measuring 4.22 mm in diameter. The legs of the figurine have been broken in the ankle region; the right leg is straight and the left leg is arched out and comes back into the right leg. The object is solid and shows signs of plough damage and pitting. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Collins, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
