Description: | a probable Roman copper alloy harness mount. It is circular, with a diameter of 51.95mm. It is dished, with a narrow raised rim, and is domed in the centre (diameter 32.9mm) with a knop in the middle, 3mm in height. Projecting from the rim edge are two opposing semi-circular flanges, 11.65mm in length and 9.65mm in width, each with a circular perforation. There are traces of tinning on the upper surface. The mount weighs 44.89g. Ralph Jackson has seen the photographs and agrees with the identification. The mount is similar in shape and size to examples from Caerleon (Chapman 2005, Tg.16) but the latter do not have perforated flanges. | 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
