Description: | Copper alloy strap fitting length 24mm, width 21mm, thickness 10mm, weight 3.74g. The object consists of a high domed central boss. The base of the dome expands into a flat circular border with three concentric lines towards the outside and an expanded outer edge. The artefact has been heavily truncated by corrosion resulting in the loss of the top and two thirds of the dome together with two thirds of the outer edge. Artefacts such as these are as decorative mounts on strap that are predominately associated with equestrian fittings. This object dates to the roman period.
