- Title
AN IRON AGE SCABBARD CHAPE FROM LISS, HAMPSHIRE: A NORTHERN ARTEFACT FROM A SOUTHERN FIND-SPOT.
- Authors
LAMB, ANDREW W.
- Abstract
In 2018 an Iron Age scabbard chape was reported to the Portable Antiquities Scheme, having been discovered during metal-detecting on cultivated land in the parish of Liss, east Hampshire. Although the object is an isolated find, and no other components of the scabbard were discovered, it is a significant discovery. This is because it represents the most southerly evidence for a group of scabbards which are overwhelmingly distributed between the rivers Forth and Humber. This short account provides details of the object and comments on its regional and national significance.
