Title
Early Medieval horse harness fitting: Late Saxon /Viking-Age strap junction
Description
English: A late early Medieval (Viking Age, c. 11th century) cast copper-alloy horse harness fitting/strap adjuster. The item is plano-convex in section, with a flat reverse and moulded detail on the obverse. The fitting consists of two loops attached by a short bar; one of the loops is truncated close to its edge. The other is unornamented other than the fact that is has projections on each of its three edges. The short bar narrows towards its centre, and is stepped midway along its length.
