Description: | An incomplete copper alloy bow brooch. A T-shape brooch. The wings and upper bow only remain. The wings are cylindrical and housed the axis bar for a hinged pin, the head of which remains in the notch between the wings. The bow starts from the top of the wings. It is hollow backed, giving it a C-shaped cross section, and tapers to a narrow D-sectioned leg (the stub of which only remains. The bow is decorated with a ridge and slight flange along each side and a low circular boss above the break point. This is possibly derived from Hattatt's "sawfish" type, but it is not possible to be certain as lower part of the bow is missing.Date: Roman - c. AD 50 - 200Dimensions: 27.78 mm x 22.14 mm x 7.05 mmWeight: 4.81 mm
