Description: | A cast copper-alloy Late Roman single looped horse head buckle, of Hawkes and Dunning Type Ib. The outer edge of the frame is moulded with two angled knops flanking the pin rest, two incised transverse lines. These knops are in the shape of horse??s heads. This is an unusual type as there is no space under the horse??s chin and the stylised ??dolphins?? are difficult to see on this example. Traces of the iron pin intact. The metal has a dark greyish-green patina. The copper alloy element is not particularly worn but the iron pin is very corroded. | Subjects: | zoomorphic Hawkes and Dunning Type Ib | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Clifford, Trista - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
