Description: | Copper alloy Roman Colchester type one-piece brooch. At the head of the brooch the wings are largely missing. On one side part of the wing survives and is bent sharply backwards. At the top the remains of the forward facing hook survive. Only a small section of the spring survives as a small projection from the reverse in the centre from the lower edge. Beneath the head the bow tapers to a pointed foot. There are two longitudinal rows of closely spaced punched dots which run down the length of the bow. Red material, probably enamel, survive in the recesses of the dots, and also at the head of the bow. The remains of the catchplate survive on the reverse of the leg of the bow. | 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: | 1
