Description: | Copper alloy strip bow brooch. Hattatt notes this type as common in Dorset (a "Durotrigian" type). At the head are two tabs of metal folded back to house the axis bar for the hinged pin (only the head of which is present). The bow tapers to a point and has flattened sides. It is decorated with a moulded plain strip along each side. Inside of which is a curvilinear line along each side and a single moulded, convex ridge down the centre. These do not extend the whole length of the bow but terminate above the foot at a transverse-moulded group of three grooves and two ridges. At the back is a short catchplate. | 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: | 43
