Title
Early Medieval Strap End
Description
English: A truncated and worn copper-alloy, early medieval (Anglo-Saxon) strap end, Thomas Class A1 with Trewhiddle-style decoration although this is too worn to discern individual elements, c.AD 800-900.

The attachment end, with likely rivet holes, no longer survives but the rest is complete. There is a central panel containing Trewhiddle-style decoration, and a zoomorphic terminal showing an animal head with large ears and one surviving triangular eye. Each side of the strap end is slightly convex with a beveled appearance.

Depicted place (County of findspot) Oxfordshire
