Description: | Rim for a cast copper alloy item. The item was circular and tapered towards the opening at the rim. There is an angle just below the rim where the flaring widens slightly giving an estimated original rim diameter of c.55mm.
The item is 24.0mm long, 32.9mm wide, 2.3mm thick and 9.83 grams.
The blackish colour and texture suggests a tin alloy. The fragment is too small to identify the original item but posibilities include an open bell, a cup or a small mortar for grinding. Two other fragments were found in the same field which may be from this item or a similar item. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Burnett, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
