Lead ampulla dating around AD1250-1500.
Thanks for looking.....Doug.
"Ampulla's were used in the annual springtime ’Blessing the Fields’ ceremony in which the Holy Water they contained was sprinkled on the ground to give prayer for a good harvest.
Having served this purpose the believe was that the ampulla were discarded.
**There is a suggestion that the ampulla was buried along with their contents for a similar purpose."
The field.
** Possibly buried?
