Title |
Harness fitting: early medieval: copper alloy |
||
Description |
English: An early medieval (Anglo Scandinavian) harness fitting of cast copper alloy. It has a flat reverse, and moulded detail on the obverse, giving it a D-shaped cross section. There is circular loop 17mm across, adorned with decorative projecting knops at 6, 9, and 12 o'clock. At 3 o'clock there is a short projecting shaft of D-shaped section, with expanded terminals. The fitting is probably part of a cheek piece from a horse harness, but it may be a similar piece of equestrian furntiture. It is of 11th-century date. The fitting measures 35mmm in total length and 23mm in width at its widest point. Its maximum thickness is 8mm, and it weighs 14.4g. |
