Description: | Copper alloy harness fitting. At one end there is an oval loop, with an oval aperture in the centre (L. 20.5mm. W. 16.5mm. Th. 5.3mm). The frame of the loop is bevelled, the inside edge is straight but does not extend the same thickness as the outside edge so that the reverse surface is angled from the outside edge to the inside edge, creating a triangular section. On one side of this loop there is a slightly tapering element (L. 7.3mm. W. 9.4-7.6mm. Th. 5.2mm). The upper surface is slightly domed and the reverse is flat, giving a ?D?-shaped section. The fitting then expands to form a wider and thicker, ?D?-shaped sectioned element (L. 6.8mm. W. 10mm. Th. 7.1mm). At the other end of this element is a further oval loop with a sub-oval aperture (L. 18mm. W. 15.8mm. Th. 4mm). The frame of the loop is bevelled, the inside edge is straight and the reverse is flat, creating a triangular section. Patchy light-green/reddish-brown patina. | 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: | 850
