Description: | Copper-alloy finger-ring of Henig II and III/Guiraud 2 type. Only the shoulders and bezel survive; the shoulders flare to the oval bezel, and are decorated with two border grooves forming a V shape; there may also be a transverse groove just beyond the point of the V. The bezel has an oval cell measuring 10 x 8 mm, which retains some brown material - probably fine soil, rather than the remains of an adhesive for the missing setting. One break is old, the other fresh; the fresh break is a little way along what appears to be a parallel-sided hoop 4 mm wide. Roman, first or second century AD. | 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
