Description: | An incomplete copper alloy stylus, probably Roman in date. It is subtriangular in plan, with an elongated body, and a broken end. The eraser is convex and undecorated. There is a single rectangular collar separating it from the shaft on one side, and two collars on the other. This is decorated with a repeated zigzag design on both the reverse and front, although it is more worn away on the single collar side. The point is missing. It is in good condition, and covered in a dark green patina. It measures 52.9 mm L x 13 mm W and weighs 7.3 g.A similar stylus can be seen on the database BUC-6DC4F1
