Description: | The object is a miniature sword. The blade tapers to a rounded point. Towards the hilt the bade is an elongated lozenge shape in cross-section, this shape is lost as it tapers towards the terminal. The hilt is a '' shape with a handle protruding from the apex. The handle is a rectangular shape with the upper terminal being broken, not a recent break. The handle is an oval shape in cross-section. The handle is slightly curved, thereby the upper edge leans forward slightly. The surface of the object is slightly pitted, and the remaining patina is a dark green colour. | 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: | 43
