Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy possible vessel mount. It is likely that this mount would have been lozenge shaped when complete, it now measures 32mm in surviving length and 25.5mm in width. It is slightly curvilinear and projecting from the complete terminal and the one surviving central corner there are rounded globular knops. There is also a longitudinal central groove running down the front face. On the back face there is a very small trace of what might be a white solder material , however too little remains to be certain. If this is solder this is the likely method of attaching this mount to a vessel.
This possible vessel mount is most likely to be Roman in date especially as it was discovered on a Roman site. | Subjects: | mount | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
