Description: | An early Iron Age La Tene I bow brooch dating to c400-250BC; the spring and pin are both missing but the remainder survives in good condition. The brooch has a wide oval, hollow-backed bow. The central engraved panel takes the form of a pointed oval which contains an elongated indentation (which could be intended as a representation of a vulva). The oval panel sits within a field of diagonal lines beyond which are two bordering lines with a plain strip between them.
