Description: | A rim sherd from a cast copper-alloy cooking vessel, probably a cauldron, of Medieval date. A short length of the out-turned rim survives, along with the top of one handle, the remainder of the vessel now missing due to old breaks. The handle is oval sectioned and projects horizontally from the rim, terminating in old breaks at the point where it turns downwards to meet the body of the vessel. The entire object has a worn dark green patina and measures 20.81mm in length, 19.17mm in width, 49.48mm in thickness (including handle; 8.18mm at rim), and 55.29g in weight. This is a rim and handle sherd from a cast copper-alloy cooking vessel of Medieval date, probably a cauldron similar to examples from London (Egan, 1998: no. 446). It is of later Medieval date, c.13th-15th centuries AD. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
