Roman copper alloy chape
Small knob chape. The hollow terminal has three transverse mouldings, widening to an inverted mushroom shape, with further moulding at the end recessed perhaps for a setting. On the interior of the socket a separate layer of bronze remains in situ, the remnant of the scabbard binding.This chape is particularly small.
