Description: | Fragment of a Roman copper alloy bow brooch, probably dating to the 1st century AD. Only part of the bow and catch plate survive. The bow is narrow and curves slightly. The catch plate is triangular in shape with a triangular perforation in the centre and a lip along the lower edge.Based on the narrowness of the bow and the perforation in the catch-plate, it is likely to be an earlier type. Possibly a Nauheim or Colchester derivative. These date to the late 1st century BC and into the 1st century AD.Length:29.87, width:3.88mm, thickness:3.07mm, weight:3.21g
