Title |
Roman gold snake bracelet |
||
Description |
English: A gold Roman snake-head terminal from a bracelet. The head is oval in plan and plano-convex in cross-section. The head is shown semi-naturalistically and is practically flat with low relief moulding to suggest the top of the serpent's head. The reptile has a distinct nose in the form of a round bead and a central nasal ridge running back from it, flanked by two slanting ridges to represent the brows. The main part of the skull has a clear median groove. The perimeter of the head is decorated with narrow triangular grooves. Part of the neck survives which coils away from the head and appears to eventually run parallel to the direction it faces. The neck is broken circa 7mm after it leaves the head. The neck is plano-convex in cross-section and decorated with incised hatching to represent the scales.
The bracelet is likely to belong to the first to mid-second century AD. The fragment meets the stipulations of the Treasure Act in being over 300 years old and containing more than 10% precious metal. |
