Description: | A copper alloy slide key, possibly dating to the fourteenth century AD. The key possesses a circular section, kidney shaped bow. This extends to a circular section stem with incised circumferential groove and collar. The stem then becomes rectangular in section and extends to a shield shaped bit with one large and two smaller T-shaped rectangular adjoining apertures. Similar keys with shield shaped bits [269, 270] are illustrated in Egan 'The Medieval Household Daily Living c.1150-c.1450', 102. | 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: | 1300
