Description: | A copper-alloy fragment of a probable Roman strap end, 20.1mm in surviving length and 17.10mm in width. This fragment consists of a triangular part, which is most likely to be the attachment end of the strap end, the upper edge of which is missing, there is a circular indentation near the base of the triangular part. Below this there is a wider horizontal moulded roughly rectangular part and the beginning of an open work design, again incomplete due to old breaks.
This fragment is most likely to have functioned as the attachment end of an Amphora-shaped strap end these are late Roman in date and often associated with the military. | 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
