Description: | Cast copper alloy medieval animal mount.
The animal has an elongated noise, two pointed ears and an open mouth. The feet are inwards facing and the tail is broken off. It has an elongated neck and the body forms a dome shape. Two transverse lines are insised behind the neck of the animal. There is no other decoration.
There are two circular preforations which would have contained rivets for attachment at either end of the body of the animal. The reverse is undecorated and the feet show no sign of ware. The object is slightly bent just before the break at the tail.
This object was found with LVPL-207BE3 and LVPL-20C5D0. This animal mount faces right as does LVPL-207BE3, however LVPL-20C5D0 is faces left. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Oakden, Vanessa | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
