This object is made of high-quality silver and has a D-shaped cross-section with tapered, open ends. It shows signs of mechanical working. The excavators’ assessment of the object led to an initial classification as an earring, although there is a certain resemblance to belt buckles from the same period as well.

This object was digitized through the ‘Kulturerbe digital’ program of the Federal Ministry for Arts, Culture, Public Service and Sport.
