Description: | Half of a trapezoidal buckle, cast in copper-alloy. It is not possible to say whether it was part of a single or double looped buckle. The outside edges of the obverse are bevelled. One of the broken ends shows a hollow which would have originally been a hole through which a pin bar would have passed. The outer edge of the frame (opposite where the pin bar would have been) has an area of extra metal that resulted from a misaligned casting mould. The edges of the frame are slightly curved from front to back to allow the passage of a strap through the frame. This buckle dates to c. 1570-1700. | 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: | 1570
