Description: | Incomplete Trumpet brooch of Collingwood?s Riii group, with solid cast chain loop (more than half broken off in antiquity) and cast tubular wings (hidden) to hold the (missing) axis bar for a hinge mechanism. The head of the brooch projects from a surround decorated with radiating incised lines either side of the loop. The mid-bow decoration is a two dimensional knob of three horizontal linear mouldings, with an upper and lower single horizontal linear moulding. Below this, the bow tapers to a very narrow foot (2mm in width) of one horizontal linear moulding. The catchplate is partly broken (ancient break) but extends from the height of the lower single linear moulding. Length 59mm (complete length c.65mm). This is a cheaper version of the Trumpet (its decoration is not three-dimensional) and dates to 1st/ 2nd century. | 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: | 1
