Description: | Incomplete copper alloy letter in the form of the letter 'E'. The lower quarter is missing. The letter is a flat sheet of copper alloy and has no rivet holes for attachment; presumably it was soldered or set into something.
Letters such as this example, are thought to have been letters attached to tombs or monuments, the majority of which were destroyed or damaged during the events of 1534 under Henry VIII. | 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: | 1400
