Roman copper alloy sheet
Fragment of embossed bronze sheet, broken off on all four sides. Between beaded borders, top and bottom, can be seen a running animal, most probably a dog, with what appears to be a small, chubby, Cupid like figure above. To the right is a stylized tree and the hind legs of a second running animal. Possibly a depiction of the legend of Actaeon and Diana.
