Description: | A cast copper alloy strap end of early-medieval date. The Thomas Class B strap-end measures 43.2mm by 9.3mm (a width to length ratio of 1:4.5) by 4mm and weighs 4.6g. It has a split proximal end, a gently tapering shaft and a zoomorphic terminal. The split end is flatter and wider, and contains the remains of two attachment holes. The strap-end is very worn and the decoration cannot be easily discerned. However, it is possibly a Thomas Type 4 (multi-headed) and may have originally been decorated with further animal heads. | Subjects: | Thomas Class B | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
