Description |
English: An almost complete copper alloy dragonesque type brooch dating from AD 75 - 175. It is of Hunter type A4ai with head form B. The object is S-shaped in plan with a dragon-style head and foot. The head is a Hunter ( 2010, pg 97), form B, and has signs of breakage to the nose and the tips of the ears. The ears have a raised area at the front of the head. There is an enamelled large circular red eye with a green centre. There is a head/body join achieved by a large pellet between the chin and the chest.
The body is a Hunter (2010, page 97) type ai with a raised sinuous lozenge shape in the centre of the body decorated with a row of enamelled squares that have triangles at each end of the row. The central square is red, flanked by a square on each side of blue/green or faded to white. The triangular cells are red again. The tail has signs of breakage to the upper and lower extremities and is decorated with an enamelled red circle with a faded blue/white centre similar to the eye in construction. The entire object has a smooth dark green patina. The rear is undecorated and is smooth. There is no sign of the pin. Length 42mm, width 15.9mm, thickness 3.4mm and weight 5g. The brooch has been treated with a wax coating. Hunter (ibid) notes that enamelled types of Dragonesque brooch are markedly more popular on military and urban sites than they are on rural/native ones, and that Yorkshire is the undoubted home of the Draonesque brooch. |
