Description: | An incomplete silver pendant of medieval date. This is circular in plan and is inscribed 'AG' on one side, and 'LA' on the other. These letters are and acronym for Athah Gabar Ledlam Adonai, which is a Hebrew phrase for 'Thou art powerful and eternal, Lord' (Some variation).This central piece would have had four arms protruding at 90o angles. The edges of the circle attest to this, by minor variations.A similar example of this can be seen on the PAS website, SWYOR-113756, recorded by Ms Amy Downes, and identified by Mr Geoff Egan.
