Description: | Copper alloy zoomorphic object, 75mm long and 10mm wide. The object is formed of an animal head 15mm high and 10mm wide, it has a partially open mouth, flared nostrils and pointed ears, making it resemble a dragon. It then forms a neck which begins 5mm wide and flares out to 10mm. This is joined onto a circular shaft c.5mm wide, which in turns tapers down to 3mm after a length of 12mm. From here it consists a 3mm circular shaft which has one slight bend and one larger, more prominent bend, these both look deliberate. Its last 15mm widen out, forming a flattened curved section. It appears to have traces of gilt on part of its surface. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Wendy Scott | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
