Record ID: WILT-3F91D5
Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of unidentified object of uncertain date, measuring 14.30x13.05x2.50mm and weighing 1.79g.
The object is openwork and square in shape, with a U-shaped inward projection on two opposing sides, creating an openwork-H at the centre. To one of the other edges is a broken stump, 3.74x2.50mm.
The fragment is just possibly from a Late Early-Medieval (900-1100) copper alloy slide key for use with a padlock, of type C variant, consisting of the bit and small stump of stem only, but not enough survives to give a more certain identification.

Record ID: WILT-3EAA38
Object type: RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An undatable (Late Iron Age to Post-Medieval) copper alloy multi-purpose ring, circular in cross-section . It measures 34.86x34.43mm in 'diameter' (internal c.25mm) and weighs 13.65g. It has a smooth dark green patina.
Rings like these are numerous and would have been multi-purpose, eg.for hanging keys from a belt etc. As this example is rather more robust it may have had use with harness. It appears out of shape in places, suggesting it has been pulled on by a heavy weight.

Record ID: CAM-3BF965
Object type: BEAD
Broad period: UNKNOWN
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fossil sponge known as Poroshpaera, which are known to have been used in the early Bronze Age as stone beads. Kenneth Oakley's paper, published in an early volume of Antiquity, titled 'The Folklore of Fossils' discusses their use. Identified by Kevin Leahy and confirmed by Mr Paul Ensom, formally of the Natural History Museum. The spherical fossil measures: weight is 2.43g, height (where perforation is vertical) 12.54mm, diameter is 13.51mm and the circular perforation has a diameter of 3.92mm.
It is impossible to tell if a Porosphaera fossil has been used as a bead unless it was …

Object type: BEAD
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete glass bead of uncertain date. The bead is circular in plan though badly formed with an irregular surface and multiple pitted areas.
The glass is a light bluish-green colour. The bead is 19.1mm in diameter, 10.9mm thick and weighs 4.4g.
Glass beads are very difficult to date with any certainty therefore due to a lack of contextual evidence and any diagnostic features it is not possible to date this object any more closely and it could be Roman through to post-medieval in date.

Object type: BOTTLE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
White (clear) glass of green-blue tint bottle base. Shard from the base of a hand blown glass vessel with punt; part of an inner ring of glass adheres to the edge of the punt, possibly as a flaw corrected during manufacture. The base of the vessel is worn, indicating its prolonged use. This could be either a Roman or a Post-Medieval vessel, as the recipes for soda glass used in both periods were similar, and both could produce very durable glass. Suggested date: Unknown, 43-1900.
Diameter: 28.5mm, Height (punt): 10.5mm, Thickness (wall): 3.3mm, Weight: 6.57gms.

Fragment of an unidentified cast copper alloy item, possibly some form of vessel or harness fitting. The piece has a circular sectioned straight projection at one end, ending in an old break. Beyond this it widens into a large D-shaped collar. Level with the lower edge a broader circular sectioned bar projects. This broader bar is curved, gradually at first then sharply back on itself about 120 degrees, it also ends in an old break. The piece is now 16.9mm long 10.9mm wide and 8.5mm thick; it weighs 3.53 grams. The way the collar projects only on one side suggests it was designed to s…
