Description: | Lead bird-shaped mount of probable Roman date. Item is fairly crudely made. It measures 34.2mm long, by 17mm high and 6.2mm wide. It is in the style of a seated bird. There is cast feather decoration all over the body with a small rounded head showing eyes and a blunt beak. The body of the bird is curved inwards slightly as if the mount was designed to fit a curved item. The underside is flattish and there are two small holes towards the head end. Weight = 13.46g. | 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
