Title
Ampulla (reverse)
Description
English: Incomplete Medieval lead pilgrim’s ampulla, probably dating from the 13th to the 15th century. The ampulla is in poor condition with many fractures over the body and with the neck missing. The obverse face depicts a scallop shell design with fine closely placed grooves and a smooth edge, which defines the ampulla as a Spencer’s (1990) type II. The scallop design was bordered by a raised horizontal moulding. The stub of the loop may be visible on one of the sides, immediately before the break. No decoration is now discernible on the reverse of the ampulla. At the point of the break the neck remains open.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Pembrokeshire
