A complete but slightly damaged post-Medieval lead alloy powder measure cap used for measuring a charge of gunpowder (c. 1600-c. 1700). Courtney 1988: 2, fig. 3.<\/p>\n\n
The open end was probably oval in plan prior to being squashed slightly and the closed end is oval in plan.<\/p>\n\n
It is sub-rectangular in side view and the rim is plain. It has two loops, one at each side at the closed end. There is no indication of casting seams. The closed end is flat and plain.<\/p>\n\n
This measure is grey and the walls are dented.<\/p>\n\n
Height: 18.5mm; width: 29.0mm; thickness: 19.9mm. Weight: 17.84g.<\/p>\n\n
The loops enabled the cap to be attached separately to the bandolier (belt) of the wearer so that they could be removed without the possibility of being dropped and lost. The measure would have held enough powder for a complete charge for the weapon. A series of these measures were attached to the bandolier.<\/p>\n\n
