Description: | A Jews? Harp made of copper-alloy. Only half of the harp survives. The head and the two prongs all have the characteristic lozenge shaped cross-section. The surfaces all appear to have been filed resulting in a series of file marks on the surface of the harp. The rabbet from the tongue survives on the head; it is at this point that the harp has broken. The break is very worn.
The tongue is missing.
This example is most likely to be post-medieval in date. | 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: | 1600
