Description: | Roman (1st century) bow brooch fragment, probably Hod Hill.
Brooch fragment consisting of the right half of a rolled hinge, and top of the bow only. Possible remnants of copper axis bar contained in remaining hinge. The top of the bow is a horizontally orientated short length, nearly square, rectangle decorated with three transverse ridges separated by two broad grooves. Directly beneath the third of the transverse is an another horizontal groove which does not extend the entire width of the brooch like those above it. The remained of the object is decorated with vertical ridges and grooves. Some of the original surface survives on the rear but it is abraded in patches. The rear is plain. The fragment is 23.5mm in length and 10.6mm in width with a weight of 2.9g. | Subjects: | Hod Hill | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Kinninmont, Keiron | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
