Description: | A cast copper alloy medieval dagger chape. The main part of the chape is a narrow hollow box to fit on the scabbard. Its 2 main faces are roughly square. The front one is decorated with parallel vertical incised lines with moulded raised borders at the top and bottom. The rear face is plain. There are 2 perforations near the top corners of each face to attach the chape to the scabbard. The bottom of the chape is now broken, but would originally have had a further moulded decorative finial. | 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: | 1200
