Description: | La T??ne I type brooch made from copper alloy. Two turns of the spring survive, coiled around a separate copper-alloy axis bar. This bar is complete, 12 mm long and with each end slightly burred over; it is now at an angle to the bow. The bow is circular in section, 4 mm maximum diameter, and is badly corroded; no decoration survives. The foot has a side extension with a groove forming the catchplate, and is broken just beyond where the terminal begins to curve back up towards the bow (old break). Iron Age, 5th to 3rd century BC (450-200 BC). Length 48.5 mm. | Subjects: | La Tene | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
