Description: | Incomplete tongue from Early Saxon/Middle Saxon Continental (possibly Visigothic) buckle, with rectangular base-plate with five deep drilled dots, rectangular sectioned stump of missing tongue and part of curved rectangular loop projecting (>11mm) from reverse. >10 x 11.5mm. Metal has very dark patina. The decoration on the base-plate is similar to that found on rectangular bosses on buckle-plates from Amiens shown in MacGregor 1997, nos.77.17-8, with drilled holes originally containing glass inlay and possibly garnets. Late 6th-7th century.
