Description: | A post-medieval, silver strap-end depicting a wild man holding a floriated sceptre and sitting astride a lion. The strap-end is incomplete but would originally have included an architectural surround for the figures. The two columns B one on each side of the figures B which would have supported an arch, are broken. The figures stand on a cabled ground beneath which is an elaborately scalloped, foliate terminal. The strap-end was broken when found, at the point where the figures are attached to the surround, and has been fixed with adhesive by the finder. | 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
