Description: | Cast copper alloy small incomplete Roman head-stud brooch with only part of the bow and the wings remaining. There is also the stump of what might have been a hook or loop, joining the top of the head to the top of the head stud. Small patches of red enamel remain on and above the head-stud and on the top of the wings, but the brooch is very corroded so no other decoration can be determined.
Hattatt (2000) illustrates a similar but larger head-stud variant on page 333, Fig.192, No.942, which is dated to the second century AD. | 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: | 100
