a 4" pope or cardinal bronze figurine (any help with ID is appreciated)


My money is on Thomas Becket, the archbishop of Canterbury who was assassinated for opposing the will of his friend Henry II of England in 1170.   Becket was named a saint and a martyr by the Roman Catholic church (and later by the Church of England).

Yes, that's him. I found it playing with the letters of the name at the base of the figurine. I still wonder what was it part of. A letter opener?

Nice finds. The stone looks as though it is a garnet cabochon. Nice ring.

Trying to figure out where they camped and how long they marched is the hard part. Need to find an military historian who can into more depth than I can to try to figure that out.
