Description: | An incomplete and worn copper-alloy harness pendant suspension mount most likely to be of medieval circa 14th century date. This suspension mount consists of a circular domed part, c15.7mm in diameter, which has an integral projecting rivet in the centre of it back face which would have allowed it to be attached to a leather strap. There are two parallel protrusions projecting from the centre of one edge of the domed part, these are now incomplete but originally would have been folded backwards creating two loops through which a horizontal bar could have passed and from this a pendant could have hung. The total length of this suspension mount is 22.9mm. | 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
