Description: | A copper alloy Roman bow brooch. The bow is constructed from a flat strip which tapers towards a plain foot. The foot curves round to form a triangular catchplate on the reverse. The bow is decorated with two parallel incised lines forming a border within which are two slightly raised lozenge motifs containing a cross-hatched pattern. The short wings appear to be solid and are formed from the same strip. There is a central slit to accommodate the loop of the pin, part of which remains. | 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: | 1
