Description: | Large fragment of head and bow of a very corroded cast cu-alloy trumpet brooch dating from the early Roman period, i.e. c. 2nd century AD. What remains of the brooch (trumpet-shaped head and part of the bow) is very worn; pin, foot and spring are missing. The typical decoration (acanthus leaves around a small circular reel) are worn, but still identifiable. The cast cu-alloy loop which held the spring in place is also still intact. | Subjects: | Trumpet | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Boughton, Dot - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
