Northern Europe, Viking or Norse culture, ca. 9th to 11th century CE. A penannular or omega type fibula brooch cast from bronze incised with a notch and stippled decoration across the obverse face. The faceted terminal knobs are engraved with circles. The curved prong pin still articulates smoothly and attaches via the looped end.
