Description: | A copper alloy swivel or terret component, probably from harness dating to the medieval period. The object comprises an oval section D shaped loop. The loop possesses two zoomorphic terminals which bite a circular section bar. The zoomorphic terminals, possibly representing dogs' heads, have moulded ears and incised grooves radiating from a central groove running the length of the head. A hemispherical attachment extends from the circular section bar. A circular section stem with flat circular end plate extends from the base of the attachment. The object measures 28mm in length, 29mm in width and 7mm in thickness. | 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 | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
