Early Medieval equal armed brooch |
||
| Description |
English: Middle Anglo-Saxon cast copper alloy ansate brooch, c.750-900. It is incomplete, as the spring and pin are missing and both terminals are damaged. The terminals appear to have been sub-rectangular. One is broken across the top and has a square projection from one side with the other side damaged, the other has its top curved under and both sides are damaged; both terminals are decorated with with at least two punched ring-and-dots, one being central and with two incised lines forming a V on its inner side (pointing towards the bow). The arched bow is carinated and with a roughly central punched ring-and-dot on either side; it is hollowed on the reverse. On the reverse of the terminal with the side projection is a broken double lug to take the spring/pin; on the reverse of the other terminal is a damaged rectangular catchplate set towards the bow end of the terminal. Mid green and pitted. Length 37.3mm, width max (across terminal) 14.0mm, width across bow 7.8mm, overall thickness as curved 15.7mm, thickness across bow 3.2mm, weight 5.67g.
See Hattatt's 'Visual Catalogue' (2000, Oxbow) p.380 no.s 1322, 1323, 680 for similar brooches, dated to the Merovingian period there; ansate brooches are found from the seventh to tenth centuries in France, but from the eighth and ninth centuries in England. Similar, although not identical, brooches are recorded on the PAS database - SF-4E3442 (Suffolk) and NLM961 (Lincolnshire). |
