Description: | A cast copper alloy double looped sub-annular buckle, with recessed narrowed strap bar. Some of the buckle plate remains but the pin is missing. The plate is formed from a bent plate, which loops around the strap bar. The bend has been recessed to allow the missing pin to sit there. The end of the plate is damaged with evidence of a broken rivet hole. The frame is uninterrupted; so therefore has no pin recess. The metal and buckle plate metal are a greenish-brown colour. The buckle measures 27mm long, 21.4mm wide, 1.8mm thick and weighs 3.53 grams.The plate measures 20.2mm long and 0.5mm thick. This type of buckle dates from circa 1650-1720 AD. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p49, which he dates c. 1650-1720 A
