Description: | Part of a cast copper alloy single loop buckle of medieval date. The buckle fragment measures 24mm by 10.5mm by 4.5mm and weighs 2.28g. The frame was formerly oval with an ornate outer edge consisting of three horizontal grooves flanked by two prominent knops. The central groove could have functioned as a notch for the pin. A similar and more complete buckle can be seen in Egan and Prichard's 'Medieval Dress Accessories' (1991, pp. 73-4, no. 299), although this example has an extra groove on the outside edge. This buckle probably dates from the late twelfth to the late fourteenth century. | 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
