Description: | Incomplete Iron Age pin made from iron. In the Iron Age pins were used to fasten clothes, so the shank of the pin has a slight bend in it to help keep it fixed in the cloth. This was found in a roundhouse at South Shields that was destroyed by fire (Arbeia Roman Fort). | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | archaeology living in the North East fashion roman | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
