Title |
Early Medieval Great Square Headed Brooch |
||
Description |
English: Incomplete Early Saxon Great Square Headed copper alloy brooch, comprising a damaged headplate and broken bow with burnt adhering remains of the broken bow disc. Surviving length 58.5mm. Width 57mm. John Hines writes (personal communication) 'an unusual, one-off piece. However from the form of the headplate frame and the bow, I'm pretty confident that it compares most closely to the Group XVII brooches ... otherwise, quite a numerous, but also quite a homogeneous group. Those all have single square headplate inner panels -- most of them with a Style I animal in a posture that's pretty similar, although not identical, to what we have mirrored in the two panels here. The nearest possible parallel I could see to that is a Group XVII brooch from Londesborough in East Yorkshire/North Humberside, where the single panel has a head/eye motif in each of the upper corners, as we see here. In sum, I'd see this as either an unusual variant of Group XVII or at least an individualistic brooch related to Group XVII' c.530-c.570 AD. |
