Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy vessel mount, Roman in date, measuring 40.4mm in total length, 13mm in width and 5mm in thickness. This mount consists of a pointed oval shaped plate, which is curvilinear in profile with a convex outer face with a central longitudinal ridge and a hollow inner face, which has traces of lead within it. Projecting from one end of this plate is an integral loop, this is incomplete due to an old break and curves round towards the front face. This mount would have been attached to a vessel, probably a copper-alloy bucket via the lead within the concave inner face of the plate.
Similar examples have been found at Linstaed Magna, Suffolk, see SF-2AE0A6, and Buxhall, Suffolk as well as at Verulamium (Frere 1972 fig 41, no 142). | Subjects: | mount | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
