Description: | An incomplete copper alloy Medieval book mount. The surviving part of the mount is trapezoidal, widening at the break. The upper surface has an incised design of diagonal lines dividing the central area into four triangles. Where the corners of the wider triangles meet, they terminate with a bifurcating scroll. The apex of the narrow triangles is split by a horizontal line, creating a central cross with two pattee arms and two moline arms. There is a copper alloy stud towards the outer edge with a subcircular head. | 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
