Description: | A fragment of an early medieval copper alloy strap end of Thomas' Type A. The fragment is flat and tongue shaped; it splits at one end into two plates which would have acted as a means of attachment. These plates are corroded and damaged and there are no rivets visible. The upper surface of the plate possesses two panels of decoration, comprising incised lines and dots. The panel furthest from the attachment plates appears to depict a stylised running animal (quadreped). The fragment measures 26mm in length and has a maximum width of 12mm. | 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: | 410
