Title
Possible Roman lorica segmentata hinged fragment
Description
English: A copper-alloy unidentified object. It measures 24.4mm in length and 16.3mm in width, roughly rectangular in shape with a central hinge and neither of the two plates are complete due to old breaks, so it is difficult to know what shape they would have been originally. Also each plate has two parallel rivet holes after the central hinge, after this the plates seem to have a central open work element, further more the plates seem to differ in design with the open work elements surviving being of different shapes. There is corroded iron around the hinge area and a small amount of a silvery grey material which could be a solder of some kind. There are also tiny traces of a possible white metal coating on the front face.
