Matrix & Impression |
||
Description |
English: A well-cut copper-alloy seal matrix in the form of a pointed oval (vesica). Flat undecorated reverse with a raised midrib with intact suspension loop at top. Device is of a lion rampant. Legend +S' THOME. hVET RCT. CL' ICI (a possible translation of this is Seal of Thomas Huet, Rector, Clerk) The letters between ThOME and CL'ICI are hard to read. The h may be an I with an accidental cut crossing the border between central motif and legend.
The surname Huet is recorded (Reaney and Wilson, under Hewett) and it is possible that the three letters after indicate that Thomas Hewett was a rector, but if so it is odd to also call him a clerk (normally a lower-status priest) and also not to say where he was rector of. The lion rampant device was a common device on matrices; its owners were not necessarily armigerous. A very similar device is found on seal matrix York 11a. |
