Description: | An incomplete copper alloy Roman T shape brooch dating to the period c. AD 50 - 150. The pin is missing. The brooch measures 29.43mm in length, 23.86mm maximum width, 4.14mm minimum width, and weighs 5.10g.The head exhibits cylindrical wings.. Each wing is decorated with three sets of circumferential ridges. The axis bar is present, as is the base of the pin. The bow arches back from the head and is 7.67mm across at that point. Immediately below the head is a slightly raised boss 11.41mm in length with four circular recesses of coloured enamel , each about 2.50mm in diameter. Two of these recesses are adjacent to one another, both red in colour, underneath is a single blue one and immediately below that is another red one. The bow then tapers to the foot where it ends in a knop and catchplate. The catchplate is incomplete due to old breaks.Cf. Hattatt, R, 2007, p. 302
