Description: | A ferrous copper-alloy conical study from a Roman helmet, dating to the late 2nd and 3rd centuries.
The main body of the stud is somewhat corroded, with the original surface appearing as a cortex covering approximately one third of the stud. The apex/point of the stud is very rounded. The shank is off-center, and is 6.24mm in diameter and 2.2mm in length. The body bears an inscribed line around its circumference 2.2mm from the base. A shank 6.39mm in diameter protrudes 1.62mm from the center of the base. The shank is partly corroded.
The stud is paralleled by a late 2nd/3rd century cavalry helmet from Bodengraven (Bishop and Coulston, Fig. 114, no. 1). | 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: | 175
