Description: | Unidentifiable, incomplete copper alloy object. This object is a length of curved metal, 46.4mm long, semi-circular in section, i.e it has a flat under side and domed top side, and is 7.24mm wide, 3.76mm thick and weighs 6.64g. Some of the original surface remains and is an even mid green, though there is evidencer of corrosion encrustation to front and back which is yellowy green and bright green. One end of the object is clearly broken, with the break surface being creamy white in colour. Though the break is not fresh, it is rough, suggesting damage occurred in the more recent past. The opposite end appears to be complete and is finished with a flat end. This suggests, that despite first impressions, this is not a fragment from a bracelet hoop. Though this object has been found in an area with known Roman artefacts, ultimately its date is unknown. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Caroline McDonald | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
