Description: | A fragment of a cast copper alloy Roman bracelet, probably dating the the first century. It is flat, and due to breaks, triangular in shape. The widest end has a straight, unbroken portion, indicating that this was the terminus of the bracelet. The corrosponding side also has a small straight, unbroken edge; the oppositie edge is broken, indicating that the bracelet was once wider. The pointed end curves upwards. There are five visible incised lines on the front; the back is undecorated. All of the breaks are old, and there is a dark green patina on the pointed end of the bracelet, and a dark brown on the wide end. It measures 19.62 mm L x 15.39 mm W x 1.54 mm TH and weighs 1.67 g.A similar bracelet can be seen on the database SF-4B2C64 and KENT-E06031.
