Earring

Silver ring. The ring is open and one end tapers to a point; it probably functioned as an earring. Similar examples have been found in cultural layers in nearby Sigtuna. The earring is from the 11th or early 12th century but it was found in a rubbish layer which dates to the 10th century. Settlement find, Norrtil, Sankt Olof Parish, Uppland. Loan from Sigtuna Museum.
