Title |
a Roman Dolphin type brooch |
||
Description |
English: A cast copper alloy Roman brooch of the Dolphin type dating from 55 - 100 AD. The humped bow is undecorated and tapers to a point; there is no separate foot. There are two short wings, also undecorated. These are semicircular in section and hollow behind to accommodate a sprung pin mechanism; both spring and pin are missing. At the top of the bow, between the wings, is a short, pointed projection (a rearward hook). A small section of the catch plate remains, but most of this is also missing. The brooch has a dark green patina. It is 42.7mm long, 20.8mm wide and 20.2mm thick. It weighs 9.28gm.
A similar brooch is illustrated in Hattat, 2000, Visual Catalogue of Ancient Brooches, figure 157, number 883. |
