Description: | Fragment of a copper alloy strap end. All that remains of the object is a rectangular flat plate and three broken arms projecting from one side. The plate is probably half of the attachment end of the strap end, and the arms probably represent the beginnings of an elaborate openwork section. The face of the plate is decorated with lombardic letter 'A', possibly as in 'Ave Maria'. The field behind the letter is decorated with punched dots. The metal is very worn and degraded in places, and the edges are very damaged. The reverse is plain and there are no rivet holes visible. | 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
