Description: | A cast copper alloy Hod Hill brooch of early Roman date (c. 43-75 AD). The incomplete and distorted brooch measures 24.9mm by 21.4mm by 3.1mm and weighs 5.8g. It comprises the rolled tube which would have contained the axis bar for the missing hinged pin, and part of the bow which has been bent backwards. The lower section of the bow and the catchplate are missing. The front of the bow is decorated with three raised vertical lines, one in the centre and once adjacent to each edge. There are two projecting lugs on each side. | Subjects: | Hod Hill | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
