Description: | Copper alloy spoon bowl, oval in plan or 'fig-shaped'. The stem is missing but the base of the stem remains and projects about 5 mm from its junction with the bowl, and the stem extends as a 'rat tail' on the back of the bowl. The stem is circular in section; the bowl is incomplete with parts of its rim missing, and is corroded with lumps of bronze disease in inside the bowl, but the patina on the underside remains; the bowl length is 30 mm, while the total length including the base of the stem is 35 mm; the width of the bowl is 19.25 mm and the thickness of the bowl is 1.75 mm. This example is probably Roman; 2nd century AD by association with 2nd-century Roman coins in the same field and comparanda from other sites. | 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: | 100
