Object type: STUD
Broad period: ROMAN
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy circular stud or mount, probably from furniture dating to the Roman period. It is domed in the centre surrounded by 2 raised concentric rings. On the back there was a shaft (rectangular in section) but this has broken off. The hole remains with some iron corrosion so it appears it was an iron shaft. The stud is mostly complete but it is slightly broken around some of the edges.
Similar examples were found in excavations at Aldborough (Bishop; 1996; 64, nos. 401 and 406).

Copper alloy Roman disc brooch dating to the mid 1st century to the late second century AD. The disc is not complete so it cannot be sure whether it was circular or oval. Some of the catchplate and pin mechanism remain but the pin is missing. The front of the brooch is decorated with a raised hexagonal pattern with a small disc at the end of each point. This could be derived from the Roman sunburst pattern. A similar brooch can be seen in Hattatt (1982; 138/9; no.118).
