Description: | Late Iron Age (or possibly Roman) copper alloy ring, triangular in section with an incurved edge (the inside edge of the ring). It is 15.8mm in diameter (internal 4.7mm) and weighs 6.33g.The outside edge has a slight ridge to it, both surfaces sloping away and upwards/ downwards to the centre, where it is thicker (7.4mm). The internal edge on both faces is flanked with a flattened rib. On one face the hole is slightly off-centre.At least three others of these have been recorded from Wiltshire, from all over the county, and they are thought to be Late Iron Age in date, probably for use with harness.
