page 70 note 6 J., Brønsted, Early English Ornament, London/Copenhagen (1924), p. 255. Brønsted's illustration of this pendant is not quite correct in detail but this does not, I think, alter the reliability of his argument. It is perhaps worth noting that the Saffron Walden pendants were created secondarily from escutcheons and this suggests some period of use before deposition. A burial of this sort in mid-eleventh century England seems rather unlikely; but even if the burial did occur at that period it would seem more probable that the manufacture of the mountings from which the pendants were made would best be placed in the late tenth century.Google Scholar
