Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
A probable copper alloy spiral finger ring of late Iron Age to early Roman date, about 200 BC to AD 200.

The object is 14.5mm tall, 22.5mm in diameter and 14.75g. A similar example from Camerton, Some…
