Description: | Copper alloy dolphin type late Roman buckle.
It is a broadhead open loop buckle. There are 2 dolphins with low crests, meeting in the middle holding a globe/egg shape in the space between their mouths. The dolphin bodies sweep round to form an open loop. At the end are small attachment loops (set perpendicular) for attaching the buckle to the buckle plate. On this buckle only one of the loops remain, the other has broken off. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McIntosh, Frances | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
