For #findsfriday we have a #medieval #wheelspur from an excavation of a medieval deserted settlement in the #Matzen region. This wheel spur is characterised by a moderately short wheel holder and slightly curved shackles. The six prongs of the wheel are particularly striking.
Wheel spurs of this type came into use in #Austria from the first third of the 13th century as the successor to spiked spurs.
