Title
A single view of a Medieval cooking pot leg.
Description
English: The object is probably a leg/foot off a cooking vessel. It is made from cast copper alloy. Copper alloy cooking vessels, according to Geake, date from the mid 13th to 16th centuries.

 In plan the leg is a sub-rectangle, one terminal is rounded and this is the foot. The opposite terminal is broken. This break is not recent and covers the whole of the terminal. In some cases the interior of the vessel is visible at this terminal, this is not the case here. The leg is sub-triangular in section. The exterior side surfaces have traces of a carbon deposit. 

The leg is 38.74mm long, 26.48mm wide and 15.86mm thick. It weighs 55.65g.
