Description: | A complete two-way, copper alloy harness link consisting of a central boss connected to an arm at each side which terminates in a circular loop. The arms have a simple, moulded collar either side of the boss. Each loop has three oval knops evenly set on the outer edge. The loops are joined to the central boss by 16mm long arms which are D shaped in section. The central boss is oval and domed corresponding with a hollow on the reverse. The boss has an equal armed cross in a circle incised on the flat face and two small knops projecting from each side. A similar form of strap distributor was as found as part of a group of harness fittings in Kvalsta in Sweden (Williams 1997) | 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: | 1066
