Description: | A copper alloy strap end made from two sheets riveted together. The strap end is tongue-shaped with two rivets in each corner, the heads of which are silvery in appearance. Both surfaces are decorated with crude incised decoration in the form of a dragon. The dragon's head is on one side, facing upwards, with a long neck decorated with spots and an oval eye. There are whiskers around its mouth and another whisker or ear above its head. The tail is on the other side and appears to be forked, decorated with spots and diagonal hatching. | 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: | 1200
