Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy mount of Roman date.The central portion of the symmetrical mount is octagonal and contains a solid square surrounded by four openwork trapezia. There are three projecting elements surviving, although it is likely that there was originally a fourth of equal form. Each of these equally-spaced projections takes the form of a damaged circular plate, with a concave upper surface, at the centre of which is a circular aperture. An oval-sectioned, integrally cast rivet projects backwards from the centre of the mount, terminating in a cuboidal stop. The object measures 42mm wide, 30mm high (incomplete axis) and, including the rivet, 10.2mm deep. The weight is 8.61g.
