Description: | Strap-end of composite type but made from just two sheets of copper alloy. 11 mm wide at the attachment end, it tapers to 9 mm wide before tapering more sharply to a cruciform terminal. One sheet is decorated with two saltires made from rocker-arm engraving. The sheets appear to be soldered together at the terminal, although there may possibly be a well-disguised copper-alloy rivet as well just before the terminal. There is a second copper-alloy rivet at the attachment end. 14th century. | 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: | 1300
