Object type: COSMETIC PESTLE
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Published
Incomplete cast copper-alloy Iron Age/Roman cosmetic pestle. Ralph Jackson (1985) has identified this type of artefact as a double-looped idiosyncratic version of a centre-looped type of pestle used as part of a two-piece cosmetic set. The pestle has a circular cross-section but is pointed oval shape in plan. Cast integrally there is a flat-sectioned arm coming from its side which terminates in two small circular loops, although only one now survives (set together like a figure of eight). The metal is pitted and there is a dark greyish-green patina. The majority of centre-looped mortar…

Broad period: ROMAN

An incomplete copper-alloy protected-loop (skirted) Roman terret, measuring 51.2mm in total length. The oval loop, through which the rein would have passed has a roughly oval shaped cross-section and flares in thickness towards its base. The loop has broken and only the lower half survives. The breaks are very worn. It is likely that this loop broke as a result of wear. There is some iron staining on the junction where the loop meets the neck. A short collared neck flares downwards into the 'skirt' of the terret which covers the integral copper-alloy loop. The skirt is facetted. A hol…
