Description: | An incomplete late Roman strap end of amphora-shaped form with relatively angular shoulders to the main amphora-body. This strap end has a worn break at both the top and bottom of the artefact. Weight is 4.62g, incomplete length is 32.8mm, width is 13.5mm, thickness is 2.4mm. As the tip of the lower terminal is missing it is uncertain whether a bifurcated end was present for use as a nail cleaner.See SUR-D32237, CAM-67A1D1.These amphora-shaped strap-ends are believed to be of fourth to fifth century AD and have been worn as part of the late roman military uniforms (see BH-11C412).
