Description: | A cast copper alloy crotal bell. The bell is believed to be undecorated with two large sound holes on the upper half placed perpendicular to the sound slot on the lower half. The bell is corroded and largely coate din mud. The bell has a prominent ridge separating the two halves.
The loop is rectangular with an oval perforation.
The surface has a mid greyish-green patina and is in poor condition. 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
