A lead object, possibly a sealing dating to the Roman period. The object is approximately circular in plan and rectangular in section. A rectangular-section sprue extends from one end of the object and another appears to have originally extended from the other end, although it is now broken. The object appears to be pierced on the same plain as these sprues which may indicate that it was a sealing. However, no legend is visible on either the upper or lower surface of the object. It measures 17mm in length and 11mm in width. It is 4mm thick.

Object type: CHISEL
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Hertfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
A copper-alloy chisel of probable late Bronze Age date. The tang is of rectangular section, is slender in appearance, and tapers gradually in width to its widest point at the shoulders. It then tapers in thickness,narrowing towards begining of the fan shaped cutting edge. It is likely that that the handle section would originally have sat within a wood or bone casing, no trace of which survives. The object is bronze green and has a good patina and there is a small hole on one side of the blade, which is probably the result of air becoming trapped during the casting process. The tool m…
