Description: | Fragment of mid 1st century copper alloy Romano-British bow brooch, probably a Colchester type. This fragment represents the leg and foot of the brooch with the catchplate complete. The leg is semicircular in section and is of uniform width along its length. It ends in a foot without a foot knob. It is decorated with a central raised line, patterned with transverse grooved lines along its length, which runs the entire length of the leg. The catchplate is perforated with a circular hole set above a lozenge shaped hole. The curl is intact. The fragment has an even mid green patina. The break edge is worn smooth suggesting damage occurred in antiquity. The fragment is 30.1mm long, 4.78mm wide and weighs 2.03g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McDonald, Caroline - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
