Title
Cheekpiece
Description
English: Copper alloy cheekpiece with single oval terminal with large oval perforation and knobs on three sides. The bar, which is flat in section, proceeds from a rectangular flat terminal with a perforation containing the corroded remains of an iron rivet. There is a second circular perforation in the bar, also clogged with iron corrosion products. This cheekpiece is incomplete due to an old break, and appears to have been repaired in antiquity, with the rivets. It is 41.8mm in length and 26.3mm across terminal (boss tips) and 0.3-0.38mm range in thickness. The bar itself is 0.93 mm in width. The bar and incomplete terminal are slightly recessed on the back from the thickness of the pierced loop, possibly by filing, which may have taken place as part of the repair process.
