Description: | Cast copper alloy medieval animal mount. The animal has an elongaged noise and a small tail. The feet are turned inwards possibly to allow a strap to run through them. The object has hair on the top of the head, a small slit eye and an indentation for the mouth. There is one rivet for attachment by the neck and a vacant preforation where another rivet would have been above the hind leg. Small circular holes are punched along the body but do not appear to have a definate pattern. The reverse is undecorated. There are no definate signs of ware between the feet.This object was found with LVPL-207BE3 and LVPL-20C5D0. This animal mount faces right as does LVPL-207BE3, however LVPL-20C5D0 is faces left.
