Description: | Snake belt hook dating to the Early Modern period, ca. 1700-1900. It is decorated with two snake/duck's heads and necks which 'grow' out of a central 'cravatte' ornament. It probably came of a broad military belt and connected two long rectangular strap mounts. The snake belt hook would have been attached to one side with the small ring which is still in place. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Boughton, Dot - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
