Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy pendant of uncertain date. It has a plate that is oval in section and in the form of a five pointed star. The top arm of the star was originally formed into an integral suspension loop that is now incomplete due to old breaks. This has clearly been repaired in antiquity through the addition of two iron rivets with rounded heads just below the broken suspension loop. The entire object has a dark brown patina that has some pitting in places. It measures 19.95mm in length, 21.24mm in width, 2.21mm in thickness and 3.38g in weight.This is a small pendant in the form of a star. Its precise date range is uncertain and it may date to any point from the Roman period onward.
