Description: | Roman copper alloy bracelet fragment, 37mm long, 6mm wide and 2mm thick. The object is in good condition with a brown patina and weighs 3.50grams. The fragment consists of the terminal and part of the body of the bracelet. The terminal houses a catch which consists of a tapering rectangular sectioned hook, 8mm long. Below this is a rectangular protrusion, 4mm wide, which acts as a collar. The main body is decorated with two differing patterns of incised lines. The first is made up of lines at right angles to the edge and is about 25mm long. There is then a small raised collar flanked by a depression, 3mm wide, beyond which the pattern becomes diagonal. The bracelet has snapped off about 20mm into this pattern.
The object is very similar to 1730, Fig.47 in Crummy, N. Colchester Archaeological report 2. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Scott, Wendy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
