Description: | A cast copper alloy crotal bell fragment. The bell is decorated with moulded 'petals' radiating from the loop on the upper half; the lower half is decorated with rows of moulded interlocking triangles. Two large sound holes on the upper half are placed perpendicular to the sound slot on the lower half. The bell has a prominant median ridge separating the two halves. The loop is rectangular with a circular perforation. The surface has a dark green patina and is well worn. Crotal bells date to the 17th-18th century. | 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
