Description: | Incomplete Roman bone needle. This needle has broken at the point of its eye and along its shaft. The head end is slightly flattened with the remains of a counter sunk circular eye. This end of the shaft has an oval section, but eventually tapers into a circular section. The break on the shaft is diagonal, and given the surface condition of the break, occurred in antiquity. The original surface of the needle is missing. The exposed surface is a cream colour with an abraded and rough surface. It has a surviving length of 54.68mm, a maximum width of 5.98mm and weighs 1.26g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McDonald, Caroline - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
