Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy La Tène III type brooch, dating to the late Iron Age/early Roman period (c. 1st c BC-1st c AD). The remains of this particular brooch consists of a segment of the first coil of the spring, connected to a narrow flat-sectioned bow with an angle at the foot. The brooch is very corroded, therefore it is impossible to discern any decoration. The brooch catchplate is extremely simple and it is possible that further elements have broken off. It measures 37.6mm long, 4.1mm wide, 1.8mm thick and weighs 1.20 grams. Cf. Bayley and Butcher 2004, Fig. 37, No. 8; Hattatt 2007, Fig. 149, Nos. 243, 12.
