Description: | A cast copper alloy harness pendant.
The pendant is roughly oval in shape. The suspension loop has thinned through wear. The pendant is decorated with seven incised triangles arranged points facing to form a circle. Four of the triangles have punched dot decoration. There is a small amount of gilding remaining in the lower corner of the pendant.
The surface of the object is very worn, therefore the decoration is indistinct. The metal surface has a mid reddish-brown patina. No direct parallel could be found, however the object dates to the early medieval period. | 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: | 1150
