Title
Harness ring
Description
English: Incomplete probable harness ring. The object consists of an solid oval-sectioned iron ring with bronze casing, which has split as the iron has expanded due to corrosion. This splitting is visible along the internal and external line of the ring, which obscures the details regarding whether the copper alloy casing was U-shaped and hammered round, or a complete cylinder. The external surface of the bronze casing is decorated with transverse ribbing. The object is similar to a simple terret ring found with two other probable harness rings and two terret rings in a context dating to circa 300-100BC (context cp7) at Danebury (Cunliffe, 1991, p332, fig 7.5, no. 1.95).
Depicted place (County of findspot) Lincolnshire
