Roman copper alloy strap end
Amphora shaped strap-end with the split top pierced by a single rivet. The face is decorated with a series of stamped dot-and-ring motifs and the top by a series of nicks. Simpson (1976, 192-224) has suggested that such strap-ends were manufactured in Pannonia or Illyricum in the second half of the 4th century.
