Description: | Bronze cast vessel fragment dating to the medieval period. The part is sub-rectangular in shape, solid with a semi-circular section where it has broken from the vessel. The piece looks similar to a vessel foot but does not terminate at an angle which is likely if it was a foot. Instead the piece is likely to be a handle, possibly from a skillet. The fragment has crude decoration on the top and a zoomorphic terminal with eyes, a nose and a mouth. On the back of the fragment there is a curved protrusion, perhaps some sort of finger/hand rest for when picking the vessel up. | 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: | 1066
