Description: | A copper-alloy Roman Colchester derivative with rear hook, incomplete as it is missing the spring, pin and most of the catchplate. It measures 35.79mm in length and 21.47mm in width. The wings are semi-cylindrical and each has two transverse mouldings across it. The rear hook would have held the missing spring cord originally. The bow is D-shaped in section and has aborad central panel with a wavy rib in relief. The bow tapers to a slightly square ended foot. The catchplate is fragmentary. This example is similar to an example from Hacheston, although this has two wavy ribs down the bow rather than one (Plouviez et al 2004, 93-94, no 74). | Subjects: | Colchester derivative with rear hook | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
