Description: | A scissor-like central hinge from a broken artefact of two parts, having loops (now broken) on both ends of the hinged members. At the central crossing pivot there is a ring and dot motif on each side. The function of this object is not certain, but may possibly be connected to the medical profession. Even so, it does not closely resemble any Roman surgical instrument. | 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
