Description: | Incomplete copper alloy tiny Roman pelta-shaped mount, measuring 14.4x8.8x3.2mm and weighing 1.08g. One of the arms has broken (recent-ish break).The mount is flat to the reverse and rounded to the front. Of the surviving arms, the central one is straight and the outside one curves back in on itself. A groove runs in an elongated U shape several millimetres below the arms, and this area is slightly higher than that below the U shape.Pelta shaped mounts are associated with the military and can be given a 4th century date.
