Description: | Cast copper alloy hooked fitting, probably a fitting from a book or a casket. The hook is narrow and U-shaped with the outer side of the U longer than the inner. The arm of the hook extends at right angles from the top of the shorter side of the U and has a flattened, pierced terminal for attachment. The reverse is flat and the arm of the hook almost rectangular in section, widening towards the pierced end. There is a groove just before the widest part of the arm. The flattened pierced terminal is rounded with a pointed end, and pierced with a recessed circular hole. | 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: | 1500
