Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper alloy mount dating from the Early Medieval period. It is zoomorphic with a D-shaped section and two rivet holes containing copper alloy flat headed rivets. A series of triangular and chevron mouldings and transverse bars probably represent a degraded mask or beast head. It is broken at one end. The mount is probably of Early Medieval to Medieval date, about 900-1100 and of Viking style. Many Viking artefacts have been found in the same area. Compare NLM-E111C1.

A side of a set of antlers, broken off just above the skull and comprising two tines. Shows signs of wear/use comprising two fairly flat facets on one side that define more or less the same plane of wear. Two other minor wear surfaces exist: one at the tip of the main tine and the other halfway along the smaller one. These do not seem to be associated. The smaller tine also appears somewhat polished. The antler is cracked/split in places and the internal fine porous bone structure is visible at the broken off end and revealed by the heavy wear on the main tine. Apparently found associ…
