Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy strap loop (length: 31.2mm; width: 12.9mm; thickness: 4.1mm; weight: unknown as the artefact is fastened to a box). The strap loop has been broken just as it completes the curve round to the backplate, wher it tapers off to a more narrow point, but still slightly domed in section. As the loop continues round to the front, it tapers outwards slightly to form a double rivetted head, where only one probable iron rivet remains intact. The artefact is broken around one edge of a rivet hole as well as across the top. There are also two crudely incised concentric circles around each of the rivet holes. The rivetted end is more flatter in section than the rest of the loop. Generally, the artefact is in a poor but fair condition with much of the original dark green patina still remaining. | 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: | 43
