Description: | Roman fibula brooch: A largely complete cast copper alloy Roman Colchester one piece brooch, dating to the 1st century AD. The spring, pin and catchplate are missing, but the vrooch is otherwise complete. The bow has a flattened section and tapers to the foot. It is decorated with a pair of moulded chevrons at the midpoint, and a circumferential rib at the foot. The object is very worn and has a mid green-brown patina. Parallels for this brooch can be found in Hattatt 2000, page 296, Figure 155. | Subjects: | Colchester derivative | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Ashby, Steven - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
