durma.2020.3.889 | durma.2020.3.889-ff.jpg | data/raw/images/fulling_mill/2020 | A copper-alloy Roman figurine dating to the first to third centuries AD. The figurine is that of a naked Cupid in a flying pose. His features are well-rendered with eyes, nose, mouth and fingers clearly visible. Cupid's hair is shoulder length with curls framing his face. Ribbed and grooved decoration indicates the direction of individual strands of hair. A distinctive topknot of hair, comprising four small, spherical mouldings arranged in a square, decorates his forehead. His right arm is held upwards above his head. The hand of the right arm holds a jug. The left arm is close to the body and bent at the elbow. He holds an unidentified disc-shaped object in his hand, possibly a plate or patera. The figurine has small wings. Decoration is visible on the right wing, comprising three incised diagonal lines, representing feathers. The left leg is forward of the right leg suggesting movement. The left foot is missing as is a portion of the right calf and the whole foot on the right leg, the latter of which is hollow. The figurine measures 55mm in length and from arm to arm measures approximately 24mm in width. The body has a maximum thickness of 13mm (including wings). The figurine weighs 29.2 grams.The Cupid is similar to examples from Kirby Thore (Green 1978, 62), Corbridge (Green 1978, 58) and Moresby (Green 1978, 65) as well as another example from the same deposit at Piercebridge (NCL-2C40A4). It suggests that this type of Cupid figurine was particularly popular on the northern frontier. Emma Durham notes in her survey of figurines from Roman Britain (Durham 2012, 4.4.1) that these examples form a group which 'differ somewhat from the slightly chubby, shorter and more common version of Cupid seen elsewhere and suggest the presence of a workshop located somewhere in the north. This might account for the higher numbers on military sites, although whether they were being produced to satisfy a demand or appear more often due to increased availability one cannot tell.' | 311figurines

durma.2020.3.2327 | durma.2020.3.2327-ff.jpg | data/raw/images/fulling_mill/2020 | A fragment of a Early Medieval copper-alloy florid cruciform brooch dating to the sixth century AD, part of the Piercebridge River Assemblage. The fragment comprises the head, the bow and a portion of the foot. The brooch measures 81mm in length. The head is 39mm in length, 52mm in width and 7mm thick. The bow is 20mm at its widest and 4mm thick. The foot is a maximum of 27mm long, 31mm wide and 6mm thick._x000D__x000D_
_x000D__x000D_
Helen Geake comments: 'Despite the head being rectilinear and not at all 'cruciform', the decoration shows that it's developed out of 3 knobs all with two little circles - possibly intended as a human mask. There's a similar example from Driffield in Martin 2015, pl. 29.1. The fragment belongs to Type 4.3.2 which appears to be a north eastern type.'_x000D__x000D_

There is a loose strip of metal which appears to be a detached part of the mechanism (DUROM.2009.1.13). There is a plastic dust cover in a faded red brown with bright red piping and the double pigeon logo printed on the front in white, along with two lines of chinese characters (DUROM.2009.1.3).

There are also two pieces of paper covered on one side with printed characters, which may be samples of the typewriter's output or instructions on its use (DUROM.2009.1.10 - DUROM.2009.1.11).

durma.2020.3.20 | durma.2020.3.20.ff.jpg | data/raw/images/fulling_mill/2020 | A cast copper-alloy phallic harness pendant dating to the Roman period, part of the Piercebridge River Assemblage. The pendant comprises a circular, D-sectioned suspension loop turned through 90 degrees to the pendant body. The pendant body is triangular in plan with lozengiform, moulded decoration on its upper surface, presumably intended to represent stylised pubic hair. At the apex of the triangle, there extends a further cast D-sectioned plate which is plain and represents the testes, with a circular-section extension representing the flaccid phallus. The underside of the plate is plain and hollow. The pendant measures 45mm in length, 35mm in width and 5mm in thickness. The attachment loop measures 4mm in width and 15mm in diameter._x000D__x000D_

Pendants depicting flaccid phalli are rare in Roman Britain, with only five other examples known. Three are recorded by the PAS as KENT-E3D152, GLO-221C74 and DENO-C0709A, whilst a fourth was found during excavation at Healam Bridge, North Yorkshire (Bishop 2017, 154, Fig. 224 and 155, no. 22). A similar phallic pendant was found in Corbridge and is held in the Corstopitum Museum collection (Acc. no. 75.515) See Green, M. (1978) A corpus of Small Cult-Objects from the Military Areas of Roman Britain, BAR British Series 52, p. 58, no. 31 and Plate 142. A pendant in a similar style but with an erect rather than flaccid penis was found in the western part of the vicus in Aquincum (Fig. 6, 80; Fig. 9, 82 and Table 2, p. 84) and is dated to the first to third century AD (Lorant, V. 2016 Is that not charming?
