A very rare metal detector find, a Viking Lynx Claw amulet pendant with the loop for suspension strong and wearable, measuring approximately 1 inch high. This very solid and wearable amulet dates to around 800 - 1000 AD. As seen the condition is very good. The Lynx is a very special symbol in Kievan Rus and Slavic belief systems. retailer Amulets have been around since early man began to be able to shape stone, bone and the antlers and claws of animals. A Bear Amulet in primitive form would have been a claw or tooth from the creature found in the forest and hung around the neck. Or it may have been carved into an iconic object or used to decorate weapons and sacred or spiritual items. The lynx was revered and hunted for food and its pelt, a pelt showing all that a great hunter was there, and the woman wearing a coat of lynx being someone of wealth. It would be worn as a suspension, and the loop for suspension is complete and strong. Please remember these are the real thing, at one time around 1000 years ago worn by a Viking. This type of talisman has been worn since ancient times. These were cast, a strong solid piece. As with all my antiquities I guarantee this to be authentic for a lifetime, and that is a money back lifetime guarantee. Buy with confidence!!!!!
