Description: | Probable clanger from a handbell of small dimensions. This object consists of a rod 17mm long of 3.2mm gauge, one end of which is flattened and pierced to form a small suspension or attachment loop. At the other end is cast integrally a solid ball of copper alloy 9mm in height and 11mm in diameter. The obvious interpretation is that this was suspended within a bell and swung so that the ball should strike the inside wall of the bell. | 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: | 1400
