Description: | A jet plano-convex bead measuring 14.1 mm in diameter and 6.8 mm thick. The upper and lower faces are both very flat. The bead is pierced with a uniform circular hole, 3.4 mm in diameter. It suffers a small amount of damage. Such beads are known from Roman graves and there is a strong possibility that this bead is Roman, probably dating from the 3rd or 4th century. Other examples are illustrated in Crummy (1983, 33; 559-956).
