Description: | A cast copper alloy buckle dating to the medieval period. The buckle has a single looped frame with a narrowed strap or pin bar. The outer edge of the buckle has a squared body with two small hook-type projections from its top, possibly intending to imitate late Roman zoomorphic buckle elements. There are two thin horizontal lines beneath the projections, which would have presumably formed a border for the pin rest. The reverse of the buckle is plain and undecorated and the pin is missing. Although the style is Romanesque, this buckle is medieval in date, dating from c. AD 1200-1400.
