Description: | Roman copper alloy Trumpet derivitive brooch, C. 50mm long and 10mm wide. The brooch is in good condition and has a green/brown patina. The brooch has a semi-circular, hollow spring casing with the straight edge towards the top and has the remains of two lugs protruding from its reverse. This also has a suspension loop, c.5mm in diameter, protruding from the upper edge, below which is an incised horizontal line. The bow emerges just below this line, curving out and then down. The bow is plain apart from a raised downwards pointing arrow which is surronded by a semi circular border in the upper part. The lower part of the bow has a splayed foot which has a raised horizontal band above it. The catchplate is complete and is c.25mm long and 15mm wide. Another very similar brooch was recorded in Leicestershire very recently, see Leic-9D5D22. | 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: | 200
