It has a plain oval bezel with no signs of shoulders. This is filled with red glass which has a depression in its centre which appears to portray a human head. The style of this image is very similar to that of the human heads on horse and rider brooches. | 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: | 1
