Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy Early Medieval strap end. The oval, tapering strap end has a split attachment with two perforations for rivets (one still in place). The other end is broken and worn, but likely tapered down into a point. One side of the strap end is decorated with a criss-crossing diamond pattern, with the other side plain, or heavily worn. There is an uneven light green patina. It measures 28.2mm x 12.9mm x 2.4mm, and 2.72g. A similar example can be found on the PAS database (record NLM-03D576), dating it to the early Medieval period, 750-1100AD. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
