Description: | A complete cast copper alloy harness pendant, dating to the Medieval period (c. 13th-15th c AD). This pendant is cruciform in shape, with one D-shaped section globular terminal at each end, and a similar globular centre, with a flat surface on the reverse. The arms of the cruciform are very short, measuring approx. 1.15 mm in length each. There are traces of gilding in some of the interior edges of the pendant, but no decorative elements remain on the front face. It has an integral suspension loop which is parallel to the face of the pendant. Possible traces of an iron suspension component remain within the suspension loop. The pendant measures 34.7 mm long; 27.2 mm wide; 5.6 mm thick; and weighs 9.28 grams.
