Description: | Cast cu-alloy vessel escutcheon dating from the Roman period. It is of roughly triangular shape and domed, being 12mm high at its flattened peak. While the obverse shows a rough green/turquoise patina which is affected by bronze disease, the hollow back shows remains of white solder. None of the decoration (if there was any) remains on the obverse and the loop at the top is missing. The shape and size of this escutcheon is the same as another one found at Aldborough (see reference). This one, however, still retains the suspension loop at the top. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Boughton, Dot - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
