Description: | A copper alloy plate from a medieval buckle. The plate is 32.7mm long, 16.2mm wide and 2.2mm thick. Only the front plate survives. It is rectangular and has an incised line border and punched dots forming a lozenge pattern, though this is very faint. There are the remains of a rivet near the open end. The closed end is crimped and there is no evidence of a slot or hole for the pin, so this might not be the full length of the plate. Similar plates can be seen in Egan and Pritchard??s (1991) Dress Accessories. It probably dates from the thirteenth or fourteenth century. The plate has a dark green patina. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
