Description: | Small donut-shaped lead weight. Both sides are decorated with two adjacent and interwoven rows of zig-zags so that the pattern looks like a star. The area around the central hole looks worn and shinier than the remaining surface.
It is not clear what this weight has been used for, but a common use as spindle whorl or perhaps weight for fishing nets is suggested. | 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: | 1100
