Description: | Small plaque that was possibly part of a post-medieval teaching aid, used by first graders. It is made of lead and possibly had a copper-alloy coat, judging from the dark brown residue on the front and back. Some letters of the alphabet are still visible: MNOPQR (first row) and STVW (second row) as well as XYZ (last row). It is likely that after the alphabet the numbers 0-9 would follow, but there is no trace of them (or the beginning of the alphabet) left. | 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: | 1700
