Description: | A cast copper alloy belt mount.
The mount is oval in shape, but has broken and therefore has lost one terminal. The plate is decorated with a recessed rectangular cell, inside which there is a linear design. This design is surrounded by a crude incised border. The design radiates out from the centre. There are two rivet holes in the plate, one at either end. One survives intact, with a copper alloy rivet hole still in situ. The other rivet hole has torn open, due to the break. The reverse has been filed. The metal is a dark greyish-green colour.
This mount looks medieval in date, probably 13th ?? 15th Century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
