Description: | Piece of cast copper alloy, possibly part of a vessel mount, possibly Roman.
It is only part of an object but has broken in antiquity as all the edges are smooth. In plan it is sub-rectangular and is curved slightly. It appears to have some decoration in the form of a horses mane on the top edge. On the lower edge are some linear incised marks, possibly more decoration.
With only a small piece of an object it is hard to find a function and date something accurately. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McIntosh, Frances | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
