Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: IRON AGE

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper alloy vessel foot possibly from a bucket. The object is roughly semicircular, as if of a circle 39mm in diameter, but has two evenly-spaced semicircular indentations into the edge of the diameter. This therefore leaves two outer tips to the crescentiform shape, and also a central or inner protrusion, and each of these carries a longitudinal notch or groove upon it at the tip. Indeed the notch on the central one becomes an incised groove which crosses the entire face of the object in a straight line and so comes to the central point of the arc opposite. This is effectively…

No parallel has come to the recorder's notice of this unusual object. It is openwork and triangular in form, made from three rods of equal length (10mm), circular in cross-section (3mm in diameter), with a small solid ball of 9mm diameter cast onto two of the corners, and a larger solid ball of 12mm diameter cast onto the third. The entire form is a single casting. The surfaces of the balls are pitted by corrosion, and there are patches of verdigris visible, but at the collar or junction of the balls to the rods, and along parts of the rods themselves where the surfaces have been prote…

Object type: COSMETIC MORTAR
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Roman cosmetic mortar of end-looped variety, fragment thereof. The fragment derives from one end of the object and possesses a closed loop of 12mm diameter, the metal being of 1.5mm lateral thickness and tapering from 4mm thickness near the end of the mortar to just over 1mm thickness at the point where the recurve of the loop rejoins the carinated underside of the mortar itself. The object's surviving length of 34mm includes a length of the channelled mortar of 25mm, expanding from 5mm breadth near the end where the channel disappears to just over 6mm at the broken point. In profile t…
