Description |
English: Cast copper alloy unidentified artefact, length 30mm, width 17mm, thickness 8mm. The artefact has a moulded human face on the surface, with a long pointed beard resulting is an ovoid shape. Slender nose an oval eyes in the centre, above is a series of vertical striations and openwork loops representing hair. Below the nose are two lines in the shape of an inverted V that would be a moustache, below this is a horizontal line representing the mouth. The bead gently narrows to a point, this is flanked by openwork loops again representing hair. The reverse has a semicircular horizontal loop one third of the way down.
The loop has a rectangular hole (4mm wide by 3mm) in the centre. There is a concave line (4mmwide) that runs from the top of the piece down just past the loop. The artefact is slightly worn and the openwork along the edges have been effected by corrosion resulting in the loss of some of the edge. Similar artefacts are known from Viking contexts and are thought to be images of either Oden or Thor, as Oden is usually pictured with only one eye it is reasonable to assume that this could be Thor. Artefacts such as that are dated from the 9th to the 10th century. |
