Description: | A cast copper alloy shoe or knee buckle with drilled frame for separate spindle(length: 30.1mm; width: 20.4mm; thickness: 3.4mm; weight: 4.95g). The buckle has some decoration with slightly concave bifid sides with a moulded knop in the centre of each side. The artefact also has rounded ends and a complete copper alloy stud or anchor chape with cast copper alloy pin. On the back of the stud, the letters 'BoT' appear. These may have been intials or another type of abbreviation. Generally, the buckle is in a slightly worn but fair condition with small amounts of iron corrosion appearing around the strap bar. Similar examples are illustrated in Ross Whitehead's 'Buckles: 1250-1800', pages 98-9. | 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: | 1650
