Description: | A cast copper alloy spur rowel. The rowel originally had five points, four now remain; the break of the missing point is worn. The points are tri-lobal with the middle lobe forming the point. The outer lobes are small and extend from the waisted base of each point. The points have chamfered edges and each has several transverse lines incised along it's length. The central perforation measures 3.94mm in diameter. The metal surface is worn and has a mid green patina with some iron staining within and around the perforation. This spur rowel dates to the 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: | 1400
