Description: | An unidentified object of unknown date. The artefact resembles the loop from a Bronze Age palstave axehead, but where one would expect the loop to join the axehead there appears to be a straight edge of metal and not a broken edge. The artefact is basically a loop with very corroded and broken edges. The loop is oval, rather than circular and at either end of the loop there is a slight projection (with broken ends), which suggests that this artefact was once part of something much bigger. The metal is very corroded and most of the original surface has been lost. The metal is a mottled mid brownish-green colour. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
