The toothplate would be a single piece of horn or (perhaps) wood. There is a complete (roman) example from York, and another from late saxon london. Finds of the connecting plate alone like this are common in English towns between 10th and 12th C (see particularly winchester and thetford); hence my question about context and residuality. Your example fits this type very well, but it is the first I have seen outside the British Isles. Type 4 in my classification.<BR>> <BR>> Steve<BR>> Sent using BlackBerry® from Orange<BR>> <BR>> -----Original Message-----<BR>> From: "Qvistgaard Sarah Skytte.
