Description: | A fragment of a probable copper-alloy chatelaine, dating from the medieval period. The object is rectangular in shape with a row of three (and another missing) triangular protrusions, probably broken links to another part of the artefact. Above these protrusions are three circular holes, each 4 mm in diameter. A similar artefact was excavated at Thrislington and has been described as a key pendant which would have belonged to a lady. The excavated example can be viewed at www.pastperfect.org.uk/sites/thrislington/archive/1253.html#. A further similar object was recorded on the PAS database, record number NARC-891FF6. | 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 | Creator: | Tom Brindle | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
