- #FindsFriday What's he got in his pockets today? I'm going to give you nine guesses but you'll never get it.
- Mmmm.....6, perhaps 7 seem to be the remains of an arch with a central descending 'tongue'. Roman horseshoes?
- Nice thinking, but they're a bit smaller than that, couple of inches across max.
- Last try:) Amulets? 'Thor's Hammer' kind of thing?
- Excellent thinking Cranley, and you're getting very warm, particularly datewise
- I can't think of anything common enough that you'd find so many in one place. A shot in the dark as I think the 'tongue' is too pronounced, but a Lunula? PS more pub portraits!:)
- Sword pommels, in a Viking army camp.
- !! I would never have got it, I didn't realise they were so frequent. Thanks:)
- They're not, they're rare, particularly in this quantity. A bit special...
- That's interesting.
- It is
- Were all discovered in interments or a 'camp' or even a battle context in a small/relatively small area?
- Camp
- What a tremendous set of finds. That must be exciting:)May 11, 2025 18:56
