Title: Bronze Religious Artefact Post by: Iron Giant on January 19, 2015, 08:59:01 PM Its pretty obvious what it is but can anyone shed some light on its period?
It looks like it was mounted and I checked the surrounding area thoroughly for the arms to no avail :-\ Title: Re: Bronze Religious Artefact Post by: Dryland on January 20, 2015, 02:07:47 AM Nice one IG thats a great find ;)
