Title
Medieval vessel leg (ewer, probably)
Description
English: A worn copper-alloy fragment: a leg probably from a medieval tripod ewer. The foot has a rounded hexagonal footprint and forms an obtuse angle of approximately 120 degress with the leg. There is a transverse rib delineating the foot. The front of the leg is faceted, with a bevelled facade. In section the leg is sub-hexagonal with rounded corners. The artefact now has a dark grey-green patina. In form the object bears similarities with an example illustrated in Egan (1998, 164, 166; ref. 459) and can be dated to the later part of the medieval period.
