Description: | A fragment of a copper alloy late Roman hook-and-eye type bracelet or armlet, dating from c. AD 320-450. The bracelet fragment widens gradually from 7.98mm to 8.84mm. It bears decoration that consists of an incised triangle within which are arranged eight ring-and-dot motifs; externally at the apex of the triangle are three more ring-and-dot motifs arranged horizontally across the bracelet's width. Above this is two incised horizontal lines. Beneath the triangle is six rectangular punches above another line, again all arranged horizontally. The reverse of the bracelet is plain. Similarly decorated and more complete examples are illustrated in Crummy (1983).
