Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Oaken cup brim fitting of pressed, gilded rolled silver found at the Ödenkirche plot gravefield at Keszthely-Fenékpuszta
  • Zala County, Hungary

This artifact was found in Grave A of the Ödenkirche plot grave field at Keszthely-Fenékpuszta. In the 130 graves at this site, typically Germanic objects were found in addition to the characteristic objects of early Keszthely culture (6th-7th centuries). Here, the cup fitting of pressed silvergilt is decorated in Germanic Animal Style II. Grave A is a large, east-west oriented wooden grave chamber of a robust adult male measuring 1.88 meters (= 6' 2") tall. The grave was robbed shortly after the wooden structure collapsed, but a few important artifacts including this cup brim fitting survived.

  • Photographed while on display from 22 August 2008 to 11 January 2009 in the exhibition "Die Langobarden. Das Ende der Völkerwanderung" at the Rheinisches LandesMuseum Bonn. On loan from the Balatoni Múzeum Keszthely.

  • Komitat Zala, Ungarn

Geborgen wurde dieses Objekt in Grab A des Gräberfelds Flur Ödenkirche von Keszthely-Fenékpuszta. In den 130 Gräbern an dieser Stelle wurden neben den charakteristischen Gegenständen der frühen Keszthely-Kultur (6.-7. Jahrhundert) auch typisch germanische Gegenstände geborgen. Der Dekor des Randbeschlags aus Pressblech ist dem germanischen Tierstil II zuzuordnen. Bei Grab A handelt es sich um ein großes, westöstlich orientiertes Kammergrab aus Holz eines erwachsenen, robusten Mannes von 1,88 m Größe. Obwohl das Grab bald nach dem Einsturz der Holzkonstruktion geplündert wurde, blieben einige wichtige Gegenstände wie dieser Randbeschlag erhalten.
