Description: | A fragment of a Roman copper alloy bow brooch of uncertain type dating to the period c. AD 50-150. The fragment consists of part of the lower bow. It is missing the wings, head, pin, upper bow, foot and catchplate. The fragment measures 13mm in length, 5.95mm in width, 3.03mm in thickness and weighs 0.99g.The brooch commences in an old break and the fragment then narrows to a worn break above the foot. Decoration consists of an incised central longitudinal groove flanked to each side two sets of two diagonal incised grooves, each set at angle to the other to form a lozenge. The reverse is undecorated and exhibits the remains of the catchplate.Due to the fragmentary nature of this brooch, it is not possible to firmly classify it.
