Roman copper alloy belt fitting or junction loop
Comprising a long narrow rectangular eyelet from one long side of which a narrowing tongue of copper alloy extends describing a right angled turn to form a hook which terminates in an expanded "button". This takes the form of a stylized flower with four petals defined by intersecting moulded and impressed lines and separated by hollowed scalloped areas. The rear of the "button" shows considerable roughness resulting from casting.
