Description: | A rectangular cast copper-alloy medieval strap-slide with a perforation to take a rivet on the inner edge. The outer edge is slightly bevelled, but otherwise plain: it is trapezoidal in cross-section. In cross-section the rest of the strap-side is rectangular with rounded corners. Viewed in profile the artefact can be seen to have been bent. Similar examples can be found illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 232; fig. 147) and tend to date to the second half of the 14th 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: | 1350
