Description: | Incomplete and worn cast copper-alloy Roman T-shaped brooch. The bow, the central part of the wings and a small loop fragment of the hinged pin fitting are all that remain. The foot of the bow is decorated with a small rounded knop. The top of the bow was originally decorated with a probable total of three circular enamel inlays running lengthways down the bow. The colour of these eroded inlays is no longer clear, although the central one was probably red. The brooch is very corroded and therefore further observations are limited. Brooches of this type are typically dated from the 1st to 2nd century, c.43 - 200 AD.
