Description: | The central section from a copper-alloy composite torc of continental European type. The object is curved, tapers towards both ends and has a group of seven transverse ridges. At either end are tapering mortice holes for attachment to the neck ring. The two holes are c8-9mm long. At two points part of the surface has come away and exposes part of a hard powdery black deposit, of uncertain origin. The object has a mottled green patina and its surface is pitted. | 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: | -500
