Description: | An almost complete flask shaped Pilgrim's Ampulla dating to the 14th Century. One side is decorated with a scallop design. The opposite side is decorated with a reverse S and L intertwined, below a crown within a multi-lobed border and a cross hatched background.No parallel has yet been found to indicate the meaning of the S and L letters. However, resaerch done by the late Geoff Egan and Anne Pedersen suggest that ampullae can rarely be traced back to a specific shrine (pers. comm).
