Description: | A copper-alloy fragmentary strap end. Rectangular in shape, measuring 21mm in surviving length and 10mm in width. The attachment end is split and has two corroded iron rivets through it. Below this on the front face there is a rectangular shaped recessed panel, any decoration within this is now obscured by iron corrosion from the rivets above. Below the panel there is some transverse moulding, now worn. Below this there is what may be the beginning of another panel, perhaps originally forming an animal head terminal. This strap end is most likely to be Anglo-Saxon and c 9th century in date. | 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: | 800
