Description: | The base of a copper alloy Roman Seal Box. This piece would have originally had a decorative lid, and would have been used to protect a wax seal on a document. The seal box is trapezoidal, with beaded nodules on its corners. Four holes are punched through the base in an approximate diamond formation. The upper corner has the hinge for the lid, whilst the side corners have the holes for the seal cord. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Crump, Barry - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
