The ring is broken at both ends, the interior of the ring is rounded, while the exterior is V-shaped. The exterior of the ring within a triangular opening is flat, possibly as a result of wear. The ring has an integral decorative moulding consisting of a central domed knop connected by two arms to the ring and terminating in smaller oval domed knops. The arms have a V-shaped cross-section with a flat underside forming the triangular opening. The arms curve away from the ring with a sub-lozenge shaped cross-section. The domed knops are decorated with a circled tricorne (a concave triangle set within a circle). The decoration is now difficult to discern in the two side knops, because of corrosion and wear. ","Determining which artefact type the fragment is from is now difficult. The arrangement resembles a terret, but the ring would appear to be too slight. A possible parallel may be identified in the Owslebury burial 39 (Collis 1994, in A.P. Fitzpatrick & E.L. Morris ) where a belt hook of continental type was associated with a sword. The Owslebury piece is different, in that the knop is at a right angle to the ring, presumably to facilitate attachment to a strap. In this example the triangular opening (with possible wear facets) may have satisfied the function.","","2003-06-16 12:31:39","2011-02-24 12:19:17","3","","3","2003-02-01","","","","","1","3","","","1","","3","1","","mlodwick","Mark Lodwick","NMGW","dpett","Daniel Pett","Copper alloy","","Incised","","Cast","","Fragment","Fair","Possibly","IRON AGE","ROMAN","","Metal detector","","Mr Mark Lodwick","","","VALE OF GLAMORGAN","St Nicholas and Bonvilston","Vale of Glamorgan","","","","ST0974","ST0974","ST07SE","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","5320","Drawing 97.27.bmp","images/mlodwick/",
