Title
Early-Medieval : Ansate Brooch
Description
English: An incomplete copper alloy ansate brooch of Early-Medieval date. Less than half of the brooch remains, which comprises a curved rectangular strip with low D-shaped cross-section, which terminates in a worn break to the flat central part of the bow. Transverse ridges are present at the remaining complete terminal end of the brooch, as well as at the junction between the bow and the terminal.

A corroded double lug hinge mechanism is present on the reverse of the surviving terminal, though the pin no longer remains.

The metal has a dark green patina and is worn. The brooch is 22.6mm long, 8.7mm wide, 10.2mm thick and weighs 3.9g.

This brooch is of Weetch's Type X.Aii. Weetch dates them to the 8th or 9th centuries (2013, 161).
