Description: | Object in the form of a female bust, possibly a mount or a weight. The object is cast copper alloy filled with lead, and there is a large, square sectioned iron element protruding from the lead on the reverse of the object. The facial features are quite badly worn, although the eyes and mouth are still clearly discernible. There is detailing for the hair around the front and sides, and there are two small, heavily worn protrusions from the top of the head at the front, perhaps once forming horns. There is also a scar on the top of the head, perhaps the remains of some form of attachment loop. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
