Description: | A copper-alloy unidentified object, 40mm in length and 3mm thick. This object consists of a rod which is hexagonal in cross-section, one end is missing due to an old break and the other end terminates in a circular knob 5mm in diameter which is decorated with diagonal grooves. The rod is straight when it meets the terminal but is bending at about 45 degrees at the broken end. This bend makes it less likely that this object is a purse bar, as one would assume at first glance. No parallel could be found for the object and it is likely to be medieval in date. | 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
