A slightly corroded bowl from a probable Roman cast copper-alloy spoon (6.2mm deep). The bowl is pear shaped in form, making it a Type 2 spoon in Crummy's (1983, 69) classification. It is plain with some abrasions to the rim and some accretions and losses of patina as a result of corrosion. At the narrow end are the vestiges of the junction with the handle, triangular in cross-section. The artefact has a variable grey-green patina with the corrosion product coming through light green. The bowl can be compared with one illustrated in Crummy (1983, 70; ref.: 2012).

The end then narrows again to an hour-glass shape before terminating above the stub of the stem. From what remains of the stem, it appears to have had a copp…
