Description |
English: An incomplete quoit headed pin of Middle Bronze Age date (c. 1500 - 1200 BC). The pin comprises a large ring-shaped head with a circular shaft whcih tapers to an old break. It has a smooth dark green patina which has been chipped around the edges of the head and at the tip of the pin.

However, the date for these smaller examples, which may be either decorated or undecorated, may be slightly earlier. A similar pin was found in Chilton Polden, Somerset (Pearce 1983:509 no.633). Reference: Pearce, S. 1983. The Bronze Age Metalwork of South Western Britain. BAR British Series 120 (ii). Oxford.
