From the back of this section extends the catchplate with an incised line marking the different parts of the brooch.

A copper alloy Nauheim-derivative of La Tène III brooch dating to the Iron Age, c. 100 BC to AD 100.

Similar examples are listed in Hattatt (2000: fig. 149) as La Tene Type III brooches dating to the 1st Century BC - 1st Century AD and there are also examples listed on the PAS d…

A complete gold finger ring dating to the 16th-18th Century. The ring is circular in plan, complete, and has a D-shaped cross section. The decoration of the band consists of an applied gold hand which is itself incised with decorative patterns.

This object likely would have had a second hand, which would have clasped the first, which would identify it as a fede ring. The second hand has been lost, possibly in antiquity and likely caused …
