Description: | Crudely made donut-shaped lead weight with 12mm long leg protruding horizontally from one side of the weight. There is no decoration and the thickness and weight of the lead is unevenly distributed, both possibly caused by corrotion.
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
