Description: | An unusual openwork, late Roman, military strap-end, damaged, with much of one face of the socketed (rather than spilt as is more usually the case) attachment end missing, the other is broken across one of two rivet-holes. There are the remains of multiple ring-and-dots on both faces, with a transverse rib above three openwork apertures at the terminal, the central one being keyhole shaped between two flanking rectangles. Measures 24mm x 34mm. Cf. examples of similar strap-ends from Barton Bendish (HER 17212), Burnham Market (HER 18496), Costessey (HER 5352 con. 6), East Walton (HER 29273), Grimston (HER 3579), Ryston (HER 31096), Saham Toney (HER 4697), Snettisham / Ingoldisthorpe (HER 34531), Sporle with Palgrave (HER 1058) and Swanton Abbott (HER 50080). 4th-5th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Crawford, Becky | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
