A complete cast copper-alloy ring or bead of probable later prehisrotic or Roman date. The bead has bevelled edges resulting in a diamond-shaped cross section. There are no other markings or decoration. The size and form of the object suggests that this is a bead, although without contextual information these objects are very hard to date precisely; it probably dates from c. 1200 BC to AD 409.
