Description: | A cast copper-alloy seal matrix of medieval date. The artefact has a faceted ?hexagonal handle terminating in irregular trefoil shaped suspension loop. The face depicts a seated Virgin and child, monkey below. The imagery in addition to the form of this matrix suggests a later medieval date for this object. The legend (see below) reveals that a 'John' would have owned this seal matrix, although the rest of the legend is unintelligible. | 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: | 1300
