Object type: BROOCH
Broad period: ROMAN
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast copper-alloy Roman Developed T-Shaped Brooch, dated to c. 65-160 AD. The crossbar, head, head lug and part of the brooch body are present. Although the spring is missing, a small corroded fragment remaining at the end of one of the crossbar arms indicates that the spring was probably composed of iron. The spring hood appears to have curved around the spring in a half-cylindrical manner and a portion of the lug on top of the head suggests that a portion of the spring chord passed through it. The head lug is part of a small serrated rib running down the centre of th …

A fragment of a Medieval cast copper alloy composite strap end. It appears to possibly be zoomorphic but is too worn to determine any other decoration.
