So, as I read it… wound to the heart, hands and feet.
That makes sense.
What a find!
There must be similar ones out there still to be found. :g56:

Something of that significance historically is what drives me.
An item of such beauty and importance… The one that gets me is the Alfred Jewel which resides in the Ashmolean Museum In Oxford.
Well worth gazing at if you are ever up this way!
