Description: | A slightly buckled cast copper-alloy medieval strap-loop/slide with a separate internal rivet and rove (extant: c. 2.6mm in length). It has five sides, including an outwardly arched outer edge. One of the sides joining outer edge to inner has buckled outwards slightly towards the inner edge. The inner edge is the thickest part of the object (up to 4mm) and features the rivet and rove which travel through a central perforation. The rove measures 4.05mm by c. 2.7mm. Similar examples from London (e.g. Egan and Pritchard (1991, 232; ref. 1252) tend to be from later 14th-century contexts. | Subjects: | strap slide | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
