Title |
Silver Roman TOT finger ring |
||
Description |
English: A Roman silver finger-ring with plain D-shaped hoop and broad, flat, sub-rectangular bezel. Within a simple channelled border is a rudimentarily incised sub-rectangular panel engraved with the letters ToT, the 'o' being rendered simply as a stop (thus, T.T). Although a little post-discovery cleaning appears to have taken place the ring displays clear evidence of wear, most noticeably on the shoulders and bezel margins. Rings with the 'TOT' inscription are distinctively Romano-British and concentrated in Lincolnshire. The inscription is usually regarded as an abbreviation of the Celtic god-name Toutatis (or Totatis), a deity who was often conflated with the Roman god Mars (M. Henig and J. Ogden Antiquaries Journal 67, 1987, 366-7). Date: 2nd - 3rd century AD. Dimensions: external, 27.4 x 21.9 mm; internal, 20.5 x 17.2 mm; bezel width 14.7 mm. |
