Description: | A cast copper alloy minature terret ring, dating to the Iron Age. The ring is circular in plan and semi-circular in section, with two collars flanking the bar. The bar is slightly offset. The collars are undecorated. The object is worn with a mid reddish-brown patina. A similar example with a circular section can be seen in 'Early Celtic Art in Northern Britain' by M. Macgregor, Fig.52. A similar example from Yorkshire is recorded on the PAS database: SWYOR-6FB6D2. | Subjects: | Miniature Terret | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
