English term or phrase: civic horn
The Winchester Moot Horn was found in a chest in the late 19th century when the Westgate was cleared out in advance of its conversion to a museum. Although generally believed to be of late 12th- or early 13th-century date on stylistic grounds, and a **civic horn** appears in local documentary sources, its excellent state of preservation has always raised some doubt as to its antiquity.
