Title |
a Roman Colchester Derivative brooch |
||
Description |
English: A cast copper alloy Roman brooch, probably of the Colchester derivative type, dating from AD 43-100. The bow has a pronounced central ridge, flanked by a deep groove on each side. On the front of both wings there is a pair of slightly angled, transverse, raised ridges separated by deep grooves; the inner ridges, closest to the bow, being higher than the outer ridges. There is a further raised ridge at the outer edge of each wing. Behind the head is a tube holding the copper alloy axis bar which projects at one end suggesting it extended into a head loop. A short section of the hinged copper alloy pin survives. There is no foot, and the catch plate has broken away and is missing. The brooch has a patchy, light green patina. It is 38.3mm long, 23.3mm wide and 19.1mm thick. It weighs 8.11gm.
Similar brooches are illustrated in Hattat, 1989, Visual Catalogue of Ancient Brooches, figure 161. |
