Description: | Chunky copper-alloy finger-ring, 25 mm external and 21 mm internal diameter. 6 mm deep, the section is slightly convex internally (with lots of filemarks but feeling smooth) and has a central raised convex band externally with a groove above and below. Each groove has tiny transverse ribs in its base. The central convex band is engraved (with a wheel) with seven letters, one now obscured as corrosion has led to the loss of the surface. The remaining ones read MARIA M (see sketch in SMR file). A nicely made ring but with a very badly engraved inscription - the letters are hardly readable. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1066
