Description: | A copper alloy probable Roman object, a terminal. It is a cone-shaped spike, measuring 26.23mm in length and quite worn at the point. It has two collars, the first being at 13.28mm from the point, 7mm long and 11.57mm in diameter. The second collar is 3.75mm long and 10mm in diameter. In the centre on the underside is the remains of a corroded iron shaft, for attachment. The terminal weighs 8.42g. The object may be a terminal fitting from a handle or a leather strap fitting, though no direct parallel has been found.
