Description: | Cast copper-alloy buckle fragment of Hawkes and Dunning Type IIA. Frame in the form of two confronted dolphin's heads with crests decorated with obliquely angled ribbing, both having gaping jaws which bite a centrally placed oval element. Worn, corroded. Loop broken away below dolphin's necks; as Hawkes & Dunning, 52, fig. 17i. These buckles are made in the late Roman period but certainly continue in use well into the 5th century.
