Copper-alloy fragment of unknown function and date. The fragment consists of a point with a square base which appears to have been ripped from a ring; a section of the ring survives as a flat, rectangular flap attached at one corner to the point. The fragment has a dark green patina. It is 27.56mm in length, 19.52mm in width and 10.57mm at maximum thickness. It weighs 13.79g. This is clearly part of a larger object but, until parallels are found, the function and date of this fragment must remain uncertain.

Object type: BEAD
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete stone bead of uncertain date. The bead is oval with a very fine central circular perforation running through its length. The fineness of the perforation could suggest machine manufacture, meaning that the bead would have a Modern date of c.AD 1900-present, although the lack of contextual evidence means that this cannot be stated with any certainty. The stone is black in colour with white, mottled discolouration on its outer surface. Slight fragmentation at the narrow ends of the bead reveal the black core of the stone.
