Anglo-Saxon England, 2008

Strap-ends represent the most common class of dress accessory known from late Anglo-Saxon England. At this period, new materials, notably lead and its alloys, were being deployed in the manufacture of personal possessions and jewellery. This newly found strap-end adds to the growing number of tongue-shaped examples fashioned from lead dating from this period. It is, however, distinctive in being inscribed with a personal name. The present article provides an account of the object and its text, and assesses its general significance in the context of a more nuanced interpretation of the social status of lead artefacts in late Anglo-Saxon England.

Slovenska archeologia, 2022

The paper aims at refining the information about the composition of a 'hoard' found by amateur treasure hunters in Dolné orešany, Trnava dist. in Slovakia. The 'hoard' contains 86 bronze decorations and, initially, it was attributed to the turn of the 8 th and 9 th centuries. Most items are late avar decorations the origin and chronology of which is beyond any doubt. Several items, however, aroused suspicions. one of the fittings was classified as carolingian and, unfortunately, was published as such. Further studies revealed that the 'hoard' included items that should be dated back to the period between 1300 and 1450 AD instead. This applies to the fitting initially described as carolingian. The paper also questions the chronology of some well-known finds that have long been considered to be early medieval.

An ornamented copper-alloy buckle and matching strap-end were recovered from a Viking Age grave, together with remains of a belt and the linen clothing that it fastened. The metalwork appears to have been re-worked from horse fittings and is likely to have originated in the Irish Sea region.

Medieval Archaeology, 2019

This paper introduces and discusses a group of broadly 14th-century single-looped buckles. These oval buckles are characterised by an outer edge which widens gradually towards its centre, thus providing a sizeable field either side of the pin rest. Two-thirds of the corpus of over 100 examples are decorated with engraved and punched motifs. These motifs comprise abstract forms, schematic or realistic vegetal or animal motifs, representations of humans and architectural features, and religious inscriptions. Such buckles are typical of the South of France, but are documented here for the first time from the eastern and southern coasts of England. Their presence in England can be framed in a commercial context; once diffused, they might have been copied, and other decorative motifs introduced in order to meet local needs. Compositional analyses revealed the existence of alloy groups with high proportions of lead or tin, potentially testifying to production in separate workshops.
