Description: | The wings are semi-cylindrical with wing caps. Each wing cap has a hole to support the axis bar. Remains of the axis bar still remain in the holes. The wings are slightly uneven, one wing cap is slightly larger than the other. The bow head is not placed centrally between the wings. The bow head has a flat rectangular shape, the upper surface has a 'W' shaped section. The central ridge continues upwards and protrudes at the upper edge of the wings. There appears to be a hole running horizontally through the protrusion and contains the remains of a length of copper alloy wire, presumably part of the spring mechanism. Only a short length remains of the bow. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
