Description: | A three-arched belt-hanger for a purse to be suspended from. This would be fastened to the belt by the use of two small lugged mounts, one at each end engaging with the short length of rod between the outer arch and the terminal. It would have swung freely from the girdle and was used to attach knives or purses to the belt. The overall length of this item is 41.5mm, but one terminal has broken off suggesting an original length of c.47cm. The outer diameter of the central arch is 15mm. Egan calls these arched pendent mounts. | 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: | 1200
