Title
Copper Alloy Ring
Description
English: A copper alloy ring of uncertain date, from the Earliest Iron Age to the post-medieval period (c. 800 BC - AD 1800). It is circular in shape and is worn along one edge, suggesting it was attached to something. The ring is flat and oval in cross section. The ring is a dark green colour. The diameter of the ring measures 40.8mm. The ring is 3.5mm thick, and weighs 9.48g. Rings such as this would have been numerous and multi-purpose, for hanging keys from a belt for example
