Object type: BRACELET
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A copper alloy fragment it is curvilinear in shape with a circular cross-section, which is flattened at one end. The breaks at either end are old ones and patches of active corrosion can be seen. This fragment is almost too small to be diagnostic, however, it seems most likely to be a bracelet fragment and is similar to more complete examples from Colchester, which are Roman in date (Crummy 1983 43, fig 45).

Object type: AXE
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
Bronze Age stone battle axe head. The stone is unfinished. It has been polished, however it has split at the end along what appears to be a natural fault in the stone. The haft hole is only drilled about three quaters of the way through. It therefore seems that the axe was discarded when it split part way through its production.

An incomplete copper alloy purse bar, 66mm in length, with a circular cross-section with a diameter of 6mm. In the centre of the top edge of this purse bar there is a oval protrusion with a circular perforation drilled through it. At either end of the bar there are protrusions projecting from the top of the bar at about a 45 degree angle, these are incomplete due to old breaks.
