Description: | Incomplete cast lead ampulla with damaged edge where the neck has come away from the body. The body has also been crushed so that the original shape is lost. What remains of the body suggests that the obverse was moulded into the shape of a scallop shell: 'scallop-shell type I' according to Spencer (1990, p.60). The reverse has a moulded border running around the inside of the edge of the body, but it is too worn to determine if there was a letter, symbol or pattern within it.
Spencer (1990) illustrates similar examples on pages 87-8, Figs.175-177, Nos.132-134, which are dated to the c.1350-1530.
Bailey (1997) illustrates similar examples on pages 15-17, Nos.11-15,20, which are not individually dated. | 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: | 1350
