Description: | Small fragment of a Celtic style face made from copper alloy. The face is broken around the edges and at the neck. The reverse is flat and undecorated. The front surface is very slightly domed and the features are crude; almond shaped eyes, a triangular nose, and a simple oval mouth. At the neck there is a line of three raised pellets. The face looks too crude to be part of a pilgrims badge therefore the date of this object is unclear. The face weighs 3.91g and measures 22.55mm in length, 16.19mm in width and 3.88mm in thickness. | 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: | Anna Marshall | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
