Description: | Roman Copper alloy military buckle, 47mm long and 36mm wide. The buckle is of the face to face dolphin type, the plate and part of the loop is missing. The dolphins appear to be holding a lozenge shape between their mouths and they have enlarged eyes formed by an incised dot and circle. Between the lozenge and the eyes are two fixing holes, 4mm in diameter. It has a pronounced ridge along its back with a backwards fin three quarters down its length. From here its tail curls in on its body and appears to form another head with a small incised dot and circle forming an eye? The fixing loop for the buckle plate is attached to the tail. One of the dolphins is missing from below the head. | 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
