| Description | Bronze fibula. The arch does not actually join the unusually long pin and the stub of the arch which arises from the spring of the pin is slightly narrower than the end of the arch. It is thus possible that the two pieces do not belong together although both the arch and the stub are made from an unusually stout flat band of bronze. The end of the slasp is broken. |
