Description: | A fragment of sheet copper alloy with an incomplete circular attachment hole. The object appears to have been lozenge shaped with the hole at one of the points. It is decorated on one face with incised curving lines. The back is flat and undecorated. It is possible that this is part of a Medieval belt mount or an Early Medieval dress hook. If it was the latter, the incised lines may have held niello inlay. | 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: | 700
