Description: | A fragment of a cast copper alloy bracelet or armlet dating to the Roman period. The fragment comprises one terminal and part of the body of the bracelet. The body of the bracelet is parallel sided and lentoidal in section. It is marginally ribbed with these ribs being knurled. A row of triangular stamp marks runs the length of the body. At one end the body is broken; at the other it expands slightly to form the terminal. The terminal is D shaped in section and oval in shape, representing a stylised snake's head. A triangular groove decorates the terminal as do faint marginal stamped lines. The underside of the terminal and body are flat and plain. The fragment measures 79mm in length and 14mm in width at the terminal and 10mm in the body.
