Title
Early Anglo-Saxon girdle-hanger reconstruction sketch
Description
English: Fragment of an early Anglo-Saxon girdle-hanger which has been damaged by heat, probably through cremation. The fragment is part of the terminal and it appears from the breaks that it consists of a short length of vertical shaft together with the bottom edge of one horizontal arm. The top of the shaft ends in a heat-distorted break; at the bottom it turns at nearly 90 degrees to form the arm. The vertical return of this arm is missing, but it originally turned again to form a crossbar re-joining the shaft and a small stub of this joint survives, with the junction delineated by a groove separating shaft and crossbar. The stub of the crossbar is decorated with an oblique or curving groove. The shaft and horizontal arm are decorated with border rows of punched rings and part-rings.

Dimensions 20.9 x 22.3 mm, thickness 2.4 mm. Weight 3.8g.



Note: this object was re-identified and the record revised after the object had been returned to its finder, and so the location of the breaks is identified from the photo only.
