Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
Copper alloy object, 44mm long and 12mm wide. The object has a curved end which looks like a broken off hook, about 10mm long and 3mm wide. This joins a circular body about 6mm thick, which is solid for about 8mm. The object begins to widen at this point and has two large rectangles cut out of each side. After these the object terminates in a circle about 4mm thick, at one side this protrudes lengthways and sideways forming a flared semi circle. This was obviously used to hold something, perhaps a strap? It could date to Saxon or Medieval periods.
