Description: | Worked bone terminal, possibly from a knife. Roughly domed profile with two flat sides. There is a ridge at the bottom and top of the domed part, with two semi-circular indentations above this before widening again to a flat top. The top and bottom are rectangular in section with rounded corners. On the two flat surfaces there is engraved decoration consisting of a quatrefoil made up of three spirals and a loop at the bottom, with shaded areas between. In the centre is a darker inlaid circle, possibly a rivet. There are file marks on the base and a finer polish on the top surface. The base has a small area of iron in the centre from the attached object. A small chip has been lost from the top at one side.
