Title
C10AB3. Strip bow brooch adapted into a nail cleaner.
Description
English: Strip bow brooch. Aucissa derivative. Incomplete (modified bow only). At the head the brooch is thinned and has the remnant of a central notch. The bow is thicker, rectangular sectioned and tapers towards the foot. The foot of the bow has been modified by cutting a central notch to from two short prongs. This is similar to the ends of purpose made Roman nail cleaners. The bow is decorated with an incised longitudinal line at each side and two central longitudinal lines of stamped dots. The brooch has been bent into an irregular zig-zag shape. 1st century AD
