Description: | Incomplete Roman copper alloy spoon with a round bowl. Most of the hadle is missing. The bowl has a concentric ridge c. 3mm from the rim. The bowl is shallow, being only circa 4mm deep and 24mm in diameter. The surface has a white metal coating. The handle is circular in section and is broken close to the bowl. The line of the handle is continued as a rat-tail junction with the bowl. This type of small rounded bowl spoon is known as the cochleare and was common in the first and second centuries AD, though its popularity declined in the second 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: | 50
