Description: | A copper-alloy platform-decorated terret dating to the 1st century AD. The oval hoop is oval in section and expands in thickness towards the circular stops which have a groove running around their circumference. The bar is drop-shaped in section. The hoop has three integral discs equally spaced around its outer edge. Each face of the discs is decorated with a central ring and dot. The ring is of red enamel. These in turn are surrounded by four smaller rings and dots in which traces of coloured (red?) enamel remain. | Subjects: | Platform-decorated Terret | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Herepath, Nick - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
