Title
Buckle with integrally cast buckle plate
Description
English: Cast copper alloy buckle with integrally cast buckle plate dating from the medieval period, that is c. AD1250-1400. Only the buckle plate survives more or less intact; the buckle loop and the pin are missing. The buckle plate is of roughly oval shape with two perforations: one for the pin which is now empty and the other or a small copper alloy rivet which is still in place. The buckle plate is of semi-circular cross section and undecorated on the reverse. The obverse is decorated with an untidy pattern of moulded lines and possibly moulded or drilled dots. There is a line that separates the two fields of decoration into an upper and a lower field; the line also acts like a 'mirror' with the decoration in the upper field being mirrored in the decoration in the lower field.
