Description: | A copper-alloy strap fitting of Roman date. A similar fitting (albeit with a different form of head) was found in excavations at Wanborough, Wiltshire, in a deposit dating from AD c. 325-400+ (see Anderson et al., 2001, p. 104, no. 161).The damaged and incomplete head would originaly have taken the form of a domed, sub-circular plate. Extending from the back of this plate is a rectangular frame. The surfaces of the object are corroded. It measures 27.4mm in diameter, 14.3mm deep and weighs 6.1g.
