Description: | A copper alloy Medieval harness pendant suspension mount. The mount is cross shaped, with 3 arms extending out at 90 degree angles to one another, with a broken loop in place of the 4th arm. At the ends of the arms, they taper to a point. Also, a circular perforation is present in each with the rivets still in place. The mount measures 39.4mm x 29.6mm x 2.4mm, weighing 5.05g. It has a deep brown and patchy light green patina. This cruciform suspension mount type seems to date to 1350-1400. For a parallel, see Clark??s (ed.) ??Medieval Horse and it??s Equipment??, fig.75, p.69. | Subjects: | harness pendant | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
