Description: | A worn cast copper-alloy artefact, possibly a Roman pendant. The main body of the object is sub-ovoid in shape; it has had removals at one end in the shape of a pair of overlapping circles. One of the hooks created at the edge of this perforation has been bent round towards the reverse face. At the end opposite the perforation is a projecting stem, 23mm in length, of section of the shape of a rectangle with rounded corners. It could be, as with an example illustrated in Crummy (1983, 164-165; ref. 4621), that this is a straightened-out suspension loop. The artefact has a dark brown patina with pitting and patches of green corrosion product on both faces. | 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
