Description |
English: A late medieval silver pendant. The pendant is oval in plan with an integrally cast hoop which is D-shaped in cross-section (being flat to the inside surface). Around the oval, on the face of the pendant, repeated incised lines form a crimped edge. The central design is formed of four letters interspersed at 90 degree angles and divided by pairs of incised lines which are crossed at the top by double horizontal lines. The letters are in Lombardic text and, beginning from the top in a clockwise direction, read ‘A G A L’ which is intended to represent ‘AGLA’. The letters have the remains of a black substance in their recesses, which may be enamel or niello. The letters are orientated around a central oval which is formed of a raised border containing a roughened surface. This is likely to have originally been a setting, probably for for a gem or bead, which is now lost.
The pendant is thin and curved, having been distorted over time whilst buried. The reverse is plain and flat. Dimensions Height: 19.5mm, W: 12mm, D (of oval part of pendant) 5mm, weight: 1.12g. |
