Description: | Derivative of an Aucissa or Hod Hill type bow brooch dating to circa 50-70 AD
Rolled back hinge with line of milled decoration immediately beneath. The small head sits atop the thin narrow bow and is decorated on the underside of its shoulders with grooves and a X. The gradually tapering bow has an incised line running down each edge and terminates in a flat based foot knob. The bow is hollow backed and is angled halfway along at the point to where the catchplate extends. The triangular catchplate is decorated on both sides with a row of dots along the edge adjacent to the bow. | 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: | 50
