Description: | A copper-alloy strap end of probable 14th century AD date. The object has been made by folding lengthways a single piece of sheet metal. The body is sub-rectangular, tapering from 9.3mm wide at the folded end to a narrow waist measuring 4.9mm wide. This waist is decorated on one side by three vertical incised lines. The waist gives way to a sub-circular terminal section. There are two copper-alloy rivets in-situ. One is located towards the wide end of the plate and the other sits within the circular end section. The overall dimensions of the object are 35.9mm long by 9.3mm wide and up to 3.9mm thick (total thickness). The weight is 4.09g. | 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
