Title |
Medieval ampulla (front and back). |
||
Description |
English: An incomplete cast lead or lead alloy pilgrim ampulla, dating from the late 12th-15th century AD (length: 51mm; width: 30.5mm; thickness: 9mm; weight: 47.15g). The artefact has a rounded base in plan but in narrow in side section with depressions in the centre down the length where the marked decoration occurs. The artefact becomes narrow at the neck in plan before slightly tapering outwards at the top where the opening to the hollow cavity would have been (the top is now damaged which the edges of the lead curling in one decoration. The top of the ampulla has also become flattened and in side section, the top leans to one direction. To either side of the neck, there are remains of an incomplete lead/ lead alloy attachment loop - the other loop being complete, where the ampulla would have originally been suspended from, possibly from around the pilgrim's neck. Within the depressions down the length of the artefact, on one side there are seven protruding ridges representing a crude scallop shell. On the opposing side, down its length, there appears to be a 'Z' with a singular ridge running up to the top of the artefact. However, if viewed across the ampulla's width, it appears to be the letter 'M' or 'N', which may be more likely. The artefact is in a worn and damaged condition. |
