Written by SWYOR intern Mathias Kaas at the end of last year, it highlights an Early Medieval brooch with international connections.

Today is my last day as an intern with Amy Downes.
It's been a pleasure to meet all the amazing detectorists in Yorkshire and the colleagues for Portable Antiquities .
Thank you for this time! You can find me at Mathias Holch Kaas if you want to keep up with what I'm doing :)

A haunting 11th century Anglo-Scandinavian 'Urnes style' mount, featuring stylized human face with a beard & wild hair...
There's a suggested a connection with horse equipment & possibly face-mask mounts on a Danish harness-bow.
Fabulous & rare Co. Durham find!

Here is an interesting find from the Selby district for #FindsFriday : A Roman trumpet brooch lead model dating to about AD 75 - 175, featuring a central moulded acanthus motif. A pretty rare find, with only seven other similar ones in Portable Antiquities

This #FindsFriday we're at Bradford Museums & Galleries Cliffe Castle for a very busy Portable Antiquities Finds Surgery. We had the bright idea of live tweeting, but it's been too busy, so here's a quick catch up....

Showing off this great find for #FindsFriday ; A French 'Crown type' jetton, dating from the reign of Charles VI (AD 1380-1422). I adore the beautiful crown on the obverse. Found in the district of Doncaster.
