Description: | Bow from a copper-alloy key, lozengiform externally and circular internally. The two top and bottom corners have projecting knobs, whereas the end corner is flattened and has no knob. The fourth corner has a deep rectangular hollow, leaving the metal very thin - the remains of a rectangular-section hollow stem from which all the projecting edges are now missing. The lozengiform bow was in fashion in Winchester from the 11th to the 14th century (Biddle 1990) but there is no exact parallel for this bow there. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1066
