Copper alloy single-runner casting jet of uncertain date, possibly Middle to Late Bronze Age, c.1500-750BC The jet is irregular and conical-oval in shape, with a length at the top of 34.8mm and a width of 23.3mm. The jet has a weight of 35.0g and an overall depth of 17.4mm. At the base of the jet is a projecting stub o...
Casting jets are non diagnostic and are difficult to date outside of their archaeological context. The irregular surface suggests a clay mould-gate and the single runner may suggest the casting of some tool or weapon, other than an axe.
