Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Milton Keynes
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy, finger ring of uncertain date, AD.43-1900. The object comprises the band of a copper alloy ring with a single straight break through it. The band is D shaped in cross section and of relatively even thickness and width around its circuit. The break likely represents the soldering point of the ring that has corroded and given way. The ring lacks any diagnostic features or markings and out of context is effectively impossible to date accurately.

Object type: BUCKLE

Record ID: NMS-2314D4
Object type: SPEAR
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Milton Keynes
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Iron spearhead, in quite firm condition but with part of the socket including the proximal end missing. The slightly bent leaf-shaped blade is narrow and elongated. Both its faces are flat, i.e. without a midrib. The socket is not split. Extant length 148mm. Width 17mm. The slenderness and the small size suggest the object is not a theatrical object, but that it may be "ethnographic", from somewhere outside Europe. The date is uncertain.

Approximately 10mm up, the sides of the socket flare into a damaged, 'leaf-shaped' head. Overall dimensions: 31.2mm long, up to 13.9mm wide and 9.4mm thick. Weight: 7.27g. The form of this piece is reminiscent of Late Bronze Age s…
