Description: | A corroded and incomplete cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle frame of late medieval to early post-medieval date. The frame is formed of a pair of plain 'Ds' that incurve towards the pin bar; the pin is missing. One of the loops is larger than the other. On the upper surface the frame is bevelled both externally and internally giving it, and the pin bar, a triangular cross-section. Buckles of this size with double oval frames have been found in late medieval contexts (cf. Egan and Pritchard 1991, 82-83; refs. 332-333), but as the form persists a later date cannot be ruled out. | Subjects: | double-looped | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
