Title
Early-medieval Type 11A stirrup-strap mount
Description
English: A complete copper-alloy Late Saxon sub-triangular stirrup-strap mount, dating to the period AD c.1000-c.1100, depicting a lion looking upwards with its front paw raised and tail curled between the legs and over the back. The trilobed apex shows a pair of joined spirals from between which a pendant lobe penetrates the frame above the lion's head. The details of the design are faded due to corrosion, but the outline of the animal is clearly defined. The reverse is undecorated, but uneven due to corrosion. The pendant lobe is broken at an angle sloping towards the left. This mount fits into Williams (1997) type 11A.
