Description: | Hook-piece from a copper-alloy wrist-clasp of Hines?s Form B12. It consists of a chunky rectangular bar decorated with five alternating square panels. Three slightly raised panels each contain two transverse grooves, and there are two undecorated panels in between. Each of the slightly raised panels has a flatter rounded lobe to the rear which is perforated with a circular sewing hole. In the centre of the front edge, on the reverse, are the remains of a broken hook. Early Anglo-Saxon, late fifth or sixth century AD. | 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: | 470
