Description: | A fragment of a copper alloy terret dating from the Iron Age/Roman period. It is probably a flat-ring type. Only part of the bar, one stop, and a small part of the hoop survives. The bar is probably straight and is rectangular in section. The stop is a projecting circular disc with a flat top (worn?) which is on an angle. The hoop is rectangular in section and tapers away from the stop. The breaks are well patinated. The terret has a length of 39.43mm, width 12.30mm, thickness 4.03mm, weight 14.37g. It dates from 100 BC - 100 AD. A similar example is YORYM-06B314 on the PAS database.
