Description: | A copper-alloy very worn and incomplete possible Roman spoon bowl. The bowl has no surviving edges, they are all incomplete, it is dished with a concave inner face and convex outer face and a pointed oval shape. On the outer face at one end there is a small curvilinear loop like projection and another fragment of this projecting from the edge of the inner face. This could be the start of a handle, this and the shape of the bowl makes it possible that this object is a 'pear-shaped' Roman spoon bowl (Crummy 1983, 70, 2012), although it is too worn to be sure of this identification. The possible spoon measures 38.94mm in length, 15.81mm in width at its widest point and has active powdery corrosive products over its surface and edges. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
