Description: | A copper alloy button and loop fastener with a drop-shaped head. This has a domed circular central part and is slightly convex at the point. The back of the head is flat. There is an integral shank on the reverse that bends through ninety degrees before forming a triangular loop with a circular hole.
This corresponds to Wild's Class III fastener (Wild 1970, 138-40). Wild dates this class to the second century AD. | Subjects: | Class III | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Ghey, Eleanor - British Museum | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
