Description: | A fragment of probably Roman (AD 43-410) copper alloy probable bracelet, consisting of one terminal and part of the hoop. The bracellet is curving and would have probably formed part of a pennanular bracellet. At the very worn break, the hoop is D-shaped in cross-section being curved to the outside surface. The fragment widens to the rounded, convex end reminiscent of snake's head terminals. There is evidence of worn moulded decoratoin on the terminal creating the impression of scales.Then fragment is 39.8mm long, 8.4mm wide, 7.8mm thick and weighs 8.62 grams.Similar examples can be seen on the database: NMS-9FA214 and WILT-384E04.
