A Medieval cast copper-alloy swivel strap fitting (c. 1100-c. 1400). This object is one half of a swivel fitting which would originally have consisted of two D-shaped loops, one with a pin and one with a socket, fitted together such that the loops can be swivelled on the pin. This artefact is the loop with the socket to hold the pin. It consists of a 'D'-shaped loop of circular cross section which flares at either end to probable debased animal head terminals. The heads grasp a broad, oval boss (8.9mm long, 7.8mm wide and 4.9mm thick) with a circular vertical hole through it to accept…
