Description: | Copper alloy finger ring with part of the loop missing. The loop widens at the shoulders to an oval bezel, containing a seal matrix. The seal matrix depicts a bird in an oval border. The bird is standing facing right (left on the impression) on a raised patch of ground. Its wings are stretched out behind it and it has a long, bent neck and pronounced, hooked beak. It may be a pelican, although not traditionally represented in this manner. | 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: | 1500
