Description: | Crude cast cu-alloy strap end probably dating from the early medieval period, i.e. 11th century. The strap end is very crudely made with a plain reverse and assymetrically decorated obverse. the obverse is decorated with a moulded decoration of a row of crosses (?) and there may have been enamel or a similar paste in the recesses between the arms of the crosses. Almost none of that remains. The surface of the strap end was silvered or tinned.Published in Thomas (2012, 509; ref. 8C)
