Description: | Copper alloy spiral finger ring probably dating to the Roman period. Length 8mm, thickness 2mm, diameter 24mm, weight 7.75gThe ring is formed of a strip of copper alloy which is 5mm at its widest with a rectangular cross section. Each end narrows to a sub-square cross section of about 2mm wide. The ring has been formed by bending it into a spiral. The outer surface has been decorated with an incised border about 1mm in from the edge, which eventually terminates when the two lines join, owing to the narrowness of the surface.The ring is very similar to DENO-E08845, which has been dated to the Roman period.
