Description: | A copper alloy stylised cockerel figurine. The bird has no detail of features shown. His neck whattles are present and he has a full tail but his comb is no longer visible. Instead of two legs he has a short solid cylinder with a groove around the base. A figurine of Mercury found at King Harry Lane, near Verulamium [St Albans]includes at his feet a ram, a tortiose and a cockerel (Religion in Roman Britain by Henig, p 61, fig 19). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Moss, Jennifer | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
