|Archaeology =
* 11 finds of calf skin strips with a slit at each end have been found at York and dated to the C10th / early C11th (15715-25). [MOULD, CARLISLE and CAMERON 2003: p.3401]
* Similar finds have been found in Hedeby and London. [MOULD, CARLISLE and & CAMERON 2003: p.3401]
|Discussion =
Although the exact use of these strips is impossible to deduce and Cameron suggests uses such as a method of knife sheaf suspension or a way of making a longer daisy chain style of leather strap.<br>
