Description: | A worn but complete copper-alloy stirrup terminal. Measuring 24mm in length and 16mm in width. This stirrup terminal is roughly a pointed oval shape, the terminal is rounded. The front face is convex and has a slight transverse indentation near to its tip. The back is hollow, it is within this hollow that the diagonal arms of the lower part of an iron stirrup would have been enclosed. This stirrup terminal is obviously not zoomorphic or as ornate as those illustrated an discussed in D Williams' article (FRG Datasheet 24), however, it is still most likely to be a stirrup terminal due to its hollow back and its size. D. H. Geake has indeed identified it as such. | 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: | 410
