Description: | Cast cu-alloy Dolphin brooch dating from the early Roman period, i.e. c. 1st -2nd century (AD75-175). The brooch is very plain. It is complete except for the pin which is missing. It has a T-shaped cross bar with a tube that housed the spring or, more likely, the hinged attachment mechanism. The bow is showt and humped and the foot is just a folded-over piece of metal. It is a very basic casting.
