Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy bracelet of Late Roman date.The roughly 'C-shaped' piece represents around half of a penannular type bracelet. It is of sub-oval section, having a flattened inner surface. The terminal has a rounded inner face and a truncated upper surface, which creates a wedge-shaped end. Adjacent to this terminal is a plain area flanked by two transverse ridges, each ridge bordered by a pair of grooves. Adjacent to the ridge furthest from the terminal is a punched ring-and-dot mark; this gives way to a wavy ridge, set within a recessed central band, which extends for approximately two thirds of the surviving length. The width and thickness of the bracelet decrease along its length, reaching its minimum dimensions at the point of the break.Dimensions: 44mm long, up to 7.7mm wide, 6.8mm thick. Weight: 10.11g.
