Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy Roman developed T-shaped brooch, dating to the late first to mid-second century AD. The brooch is missing the loweer part of the bow and its foot. The brooch has a broken head loop, damage to the arms (which enclose the pin bar) and only a small element of the hinged pin remaining. The bow of the brooch is decorated with a deep recessed X at the head, beneath which is a raised oval setting with triangular cells that would have held enamel, which is now missing. Below this are two raised X-shaped mouldings, before the break in the bow. This type of brooch dates from c. AD 75-150.
