Description: | Fragment of a cast lead pilgrim ampulla of Medieval, thirteenth to fourteenth century date (AD 1200 ? AD 1400). One side of the lower part of the ampulla has survived and the breaks are old and ragged. Length 35mm, width 13mm and 5mm thick, Weight 12.06g.
One face has raised lines which are probably part of an escallop shell design. The other face has part of a circular border filled with cross-hatching. However, it is not possible to determine the full extent of this decoration. The fragment has been flattened and buckled, possibly as a result of ploughing. It is in poor condition. | 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
