A fragment of gold ribbon of Bronze Age date (c.2350-800BC)

On one side of the sheet, a single deep score has been inflicted onto the gold. This runs down the centre, from one end to the other, suggesting this was done prior to the cutting. The other side is heavily abraded with linear markings that all run in one direction. This appears to hav…
