Description: | Cast copper alloy bow brooch fragment, length 31mm, width 14mm, thickness 2mm. The top of the head and wings are missing, this is an old break. The remaining part of the head narrows towards the leg, the head has four parallel lines that converge at the base. These are all flanked by linear border on either side. The leg has an oval cross section with a slightly concave underside, it is broken just above the top of the catch plate, again this is an old break. The object is in a poor condition, corrosion has stripped away most of the original surface resulting is a light green pitted layer. This artefact probably dates to 43-200 AD. | 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
