Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy Late Iron Age to Early Roman (AD 25-60) Colchester brooch. The remaining part of the brooch consists of an almost complete bow. The foot, catchplate, wings and pin are all missing. The spring mechanism does not survive.
The bow is short and tapering
The metal is very worn and corroded. The surface is pitted. The metal has a mid brownish-red colour. This brooch is similar to examples in Hattatt, 2000, pp297, Fig. 156. | 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: | 25
