Title
IOW-54EE97 Early-Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) Buckle
Description
English: An incomplete Early-Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) single looped buckle frame (c. 450-600).

The pin is missing.
This oval frame is convex at the front and steeply bevelled at the rear. On the upper surface, adjacent to each end of the bar (now missing), are six transverse decorative grooves. There is an off-centre depression on the upper surface of the outer edge where the pin-tip has rested. Stubs of the bar have survived.

This buckle is corroded to a green colour and has patches of a mid-green patina. No indication of any surface treatment.

Length: 20.02mm; width: 28.72mm; thickness: 5.24mm. Weight: 7.45g.

This buckle can be classified as a Marzinzik Type 1.5b dating to the later 5th or 6th century (Marzinzik 2003: 23-24, plates 13-14).

Compare with a similar buckle. See Portable Antiquities Scheme find: IOW-9D6532.
