Description: | A cast copper alloy fragment from a Roman brooch. The fragment consists of the lower part of the bow, the terminal and catchplate. The bow is decorated with a small knop just below the break, within an incised border. It tapers towards the terminal before expanding to form a collared triangular knop. The catchplate is large; the edges are broken and worn. The shape of the knop is similar to that of a trumpet brooch illustrated in Hattatt, 2000, p326 Ref 441. The fragment is worn with a mid greyish green patina. It dates to the 1st-2nd century AD. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Clifford, Trista - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
