Title
Buckle of probable later Early-Medieval date
Description
English: A worn cast copper-alloy buckle frame of probable later Early-Medieval date. It has a D-shaped frame with expanded outer edge and offset and narrowed cylindrical bar. At the centre of the outer edge is a small incised pin rest. The sides of the frame where frame and bar meet have moulded decoration comprising zoomorphic creatures gripping the bar, each with two projecting oval ears and flattened snout. The entire object measures 16.62mm in width, 14.58mm in length, 5.62mm in thickness and 3.53g in weight.

This is a copper-alloy buckle frame of probable Early-Medieval date. It finds parallels in numerous examples recorded through the PAS (e.g. NLM-6667C7, NLM-116103, ESS-BFBAC1, DENO-EBF945 or HAMPEA3BA2) and is likely to be of 10th to 11th century AD date if not slightly later.
