Description: | An incomplete pair of copper-alloy dividers dating to the post-medieval period. One of the arms has broken just below the hinge while the other has been bent round on itself after a number of strikes. The complete arm has a globular terminal at the hinge end and tapers to a point at the other. Some similarly basic dividers can be found illustrated in Bailey (1993, 69; refs. 10, 11). These are tentatively dated to the 16th 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: | 1550
