Title
Early-Medieval : Bead
Description
English: A complete copper alloy bead of probable Early-Medieval date. The bead is circular with a flat top and base. A perforation runs through the object and it is undecorated.

The metal has a mid-green patina. The bead is 15.4mm in diameter, 8mm thick, the perforation is 1.9mm in diameter and the bead weighs 8.2g.

A quantity of Early-Medieval material has been found in the vicinity of this object suggesting a similar date may be likely. No diagnostic features survive to allow a positive attribution however so a later date cannot be ruled out. An exact function for this object also cannot be determined.
