Roman copper alloy belt plate, enamelled
Rectangular plate divided into six cells, presumably to take enamel but this is now missing. Slight projections in the centre of one long edge suggests the original presence of a terminal or hinge at this point. There is a stud at either end of the back, one still with a disc terminal (diam. 9mm)
