Description: | A Roman copper-alloy Colchester derivative hinged type bow brooch. Worn and missing pin, otherwise complete, 60.14mm in length and 43.20mm in width. The wings are folded round to form a cylindrical case around the axis bar, on which the pin would have been hinged in the centre. Theaxis bar is probably iron as corroded iron can be seen within the wings. The wings have transverse mouldings across them. The bow is D-shaped in section and has a central rib. The catchplate is unpierced and worn. This brooch is similar to an example from Hacheston (Plouviez 2004, fig 96, no 115). | Subjects: | Colchester derivative hinged type | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
