Description: | An elaborate cast copper alloy Anglo-Scandinavian cheek piece fragment, dating to the 11th century.
The fitting comprises a D-shaped strap loop, with a D-shaped section of copper alloy projection away from the flat edge of the D. The other end of the fitting terminates with a large cross, which has been decorated by incised lines, which also cross.
The fragment is largely un-diagnostic because of the fact that it is so worn. The object has been cast in one piece. | 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: | 1000
