| Title |
Jet or Shale Ring from Binbrook |
||
| Description |
English: Jet or Shale Ring. Carved ring, with five slightly irregular external circumferential facets, and smoothed within. The aperture, of diameter 22mm, appears too wide for this to have functioned as a whorl, a class of artefact for which a faceted finish has been reported, while the object as a whole appears somewhat large to have functioned comfortably as a finger ring. Finger rings and bracelets of jet or shale are, moreover, frequently lathe turned, unlike this object. It could have functioned as one item on a necklace, or even - given the light weight of the material - as a pendant ear ring attached to another element (lost) passed through the lobe. A similar object has been reported as a possible finger ring, to which a date between the Middle Bronze Age and the Roman period was suggested (SF-16FCD2); this reporter is indebted to the finder for supplying a copy of that record. However, the form does not recall that of jet objects of Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age date. This object should not be kept in the desiccated environment which would be favoured for metal finds. Suggested date: Roman, 40-400. External diameter: 37.1mm, Width of band: 12.8mm, Thickness: 8.2mm, Weight: 7.45gms. |
