Description: | Roman cable bracelet. Two strands of copper alloy, each with a sub-rectangular cross-section, are twisted together to give the bracelet a 'cable' apperance. Both terminals are missing, with worn breaks. Strands on similar bracelets may have formed hooked terminals, alternatively caps may have been soldered to the terminals (See Crummy 1988 p38). The bracelet has an even mid-green patina and shows little wear except on the broken terminals. The internal diameter of the surviving section is 45.06mm and the external diameter is 52.8mm. In section, the bracelet is circular with a diameter of 4.51mm. | 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
