Title
A cast copper-alloy Roman brooch
Description
English: An incomplete cast copper-alloy Roman brooch, of a T-shaped Colchester derivative type. This brooch consists of only the head, arms and top part of the bow. This brooch has a hinged pin, the top of which still remains. The cylindrical arms are damaged at both ends, one of which has evidence of iron corrosion. The bow has a central rib which stands proud from the body of the bow, this is decorated with short diagonal incised grooves. To either side of the mid rib are faceted panels separated from the top of the bow by diagonal incised grooves. In profile the bow turns at almost a 90 degree angle from the head creating a curved reverse
