Description: | Hooked plate from a sword-belt. The plate has a central longitudinal groove between two long broad flutes. One end is wider (20 mm) and here each of the flutes has an incurved edge. At the other end, beyond the flutes, is a flatter terminal with a semi-circular cut-out on each side. At the end of this terminal is a hook which originally curved up and out but which is now squashed flat; the length as bent is 39 mm. The central groove is cut through by two rivet holes, one of which is blocked by ?iron corrosion. | 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: | 1500
