Description: | Two lumps of copper alloy waste material.
The larger one is semi-spherical. It is 38mm long, 33mm wide and 14.2mm thick. Its flat side is very rough and covered with short incised lines. The rounded side is smoother but still somewhat pitted. It weighs 59.5g
The smaller one is shaped like a rectangular based pyramid with a lozenge shaped shaft projecting from the apex. It is 24mm long, 21.7mm wide and 18mm thick. The rectangular face is pitted and corroded, and none of the faces are well finished. It weighs 19.77g.
These objects are probably indicative of metal working in the vicinity but they are not diagnostic and cannot be dated. They have a light 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 |
