Description: | Fragment of copper alloy Roman brooch. This fragment represents part of the foot and catchplate from a 1st century Roman bow brooch. What remains is the straight foot section, which appears to end without a foot knob, and a complete solid curled catchplate. The breaks are worn smooth and similarly patinated to the rest of the object suggesting damage occurred in antiquity. The fragment is heavily abraded and cracked. It has a dark brown patina with flashes of light green. It is 29mm long, 2.68mm wide across the foot, 10mm wide across the catchplate and weighs 0.92g.
