Title
Roman iron T-shaped key
Description
English: A corroded iron T-shaped lift key from a Roman tumbler lock. The key is of the form numbered '1' in Manning's (1985, 91; fig. 25) typology: the stem is rectangular in cross-section and terminates with an achor-shaped bit with a single tooth on either side of the stem. The suspension loop at the top is missing. A wide Roman date has been given since such keys have emerged from different archaeological contexts and because the form is an enduring one (see below, 'Notes').
