Description: | A cast copper-alloy strap slide of Medieval date. It comprises a trapezoidal loop with internal spiked projections on both sides towards the base of the object. The bottom edge is worn and slightly bent, probably as a result of usage. The top of the frame expands slightly and has projecting knops at each corner, as well as a moulded, projecting globular knop at the centre of the top edge that has raised collars to either side. The entire object measures 24.90mm in width, 17.77mm in height, 4.37mm in width, and weighs 2.57g. This is identical, although slightly larger, than an example published from Medieval London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: no. 1261), which indicates a date for the current example in the 14th century AD. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
