NH63NW 67 c.602 364

NH 602 364 A cast triangular plate bearing incised decoration on both faces. Slightly bent at the wider end with a broken suspension loop at the narrow end. It dates to the 1st centuries BC/AD, a date confirmed by the composition: a typical pre-Roman Iron Age alloy of tin-bronze with some antimony arsenic and silver.
