Description: | A complete solid cast copper-alloy strap fitting. Consisting of a biconical head, measuring 14.3mm in diameter and 10.9mm in height, with radiating grooves on its upper face. Projecting from the centre of the underside of the head there is a cylindrical shaft 11.5mm in length and 4mm in width with a rounded knop terminal. No parallel could be found for this object but is most likely to have functioned as a strap fitting, the shaft being pushed through a leather strap or some kind. It is most likely to be medieval or post medieval 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: | 1300
