Object type: CART FITTING
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Published
A cast copper-alloy cart fitting terminal of Roman date. The terminal is formed in the shape of an eagle's head, the beak apart holding a spherical pellet between the tips of the beak. The eyes are clearly formed and the terminal has been cast to form pronounced brow ridges over the eyes. Small patches of dried mud and corrosion products prevent the original surface of the artefact from being seen clearly. Despite this it looks likely that the surface may have been detailed with fine incised or moulded lines that formed the outline of the representation of feathers. This detail is pre…
