Description: | Fragment of Romano-British military harness mount in battered condition. An oval vulvate boss with concave reverse rises from a sub-lozengiform object with both ends missing. One end is broken near a curving moulded groove, next to which are slight indications of some form of moulded decoration. This is an example of the much more common vulvate mount with two integral studs on the reverse (e.g. Bishop 1996, fig. 38, no. 440) and is likely to be part of a circular openwork mount such as an example from Uley, Gloucestershire (Wood ward and Leach 1993, 111, fig. 97 no. 3). >30 x 19mm. 3rd century. | 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
