Description: | The strap end has a cast zoomorphic terminal which divides into two plates to mount the strap. The head of the terminal is wider than the neck and the upper portion of the body. The head has an undecorated triangular tip, then the eyes are formed by two vertical central ridges which terminate with an outward turned loop. The ridges are bordered by sub-oval shaped indentations. The neck of the item is narrowed and slender terminating with a collar. The strap end then gradually becomes wider before becoming composed of two integral plates. Both of these plates are only fragments. The upper surface of the strap end is slightly pitted. The reverse of the strap end is undecorated. The item has a dark brown patina. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
