Description: | A fragment of a copper-alloy flat-section or ribbon-strip bracelet, similar examples to which have been found in 4th century layers at Bancroft villa (R.J. Williams and R.J. Zeepvat; 1994; pp. 303-4).
The piece represents one of two original terminals, with the width tapering towards the squared-off end. The outer face is decorated with a series of incised panels of zig-zag lines and cross-hatching; there is also a panel with cut off corners and a central concentric grooved ring ornament. The inner face is flat and plain. The piece is heavily bent and corroded. It measures 54.7mm long, up to 4.9mm wide and 1.3mm thick. The weight is 2.17g. | 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: | 300
