durma.2020.3.2218 | durma.2020.3.2218-ff.jpg | data/raw/images/fulling_mill/2020 | An incomplete cowhide shoe, possibly a military boot dating to the late second or early third century AD. The shoe has been designed to be worn on the left foot. The shoe is swayed and very pointed. The toe turns noticeably inward. The toe is very pointed and tapers to the tread of the foot. The waist and seat are almost straight, with little variation in width. A single line of studs runs around the outer edge of the shoe, with four straight lines in the tread down to the waist. There is a single line in the waist towards the outer edge, but otherwise the waist is open and free of studs under the arch of the foot. The seat has three straight lines within the outer line, the outer line ranging outward a bit and running the full length up into the waist and tread.This is the sole unit typical of a military marching boot. The stud pattern is not decorative or artistic, but rather entirely practical for heavy use, for instance in marching or physical labour. The style is typical of the utilitarian shoes that predominate elsewhere in the late 2nd and early 3rd centuries, especially in the Period 6B ditches at Vindolanda (Greene, forthcoming). The size certainly indicates ownership by a male and at over 28cm it is typical of the very largest shoes found in many assemblages.MEASUREMENTS:(Insole)Full length: 28.4cm (max. preservation; originally ca. 29-30cm)Width at tread: 9.2cmWidth at waist: 5.5cmWidth at seat: 5.7cm(Treadsole)Full length: 28cm (originally 30-31cm)Width at tread: 9cmWidth at waist: 6.4cmWidth at seat: 7.3cm All sole layers are preserved, but in somewhat poor condition. The very back of the seat is corroded, taking about 1-2.0cm off the end. Most studs remain but some have fallen out. There is some wear and breakdown on the outer edge at the tread. | 441shoes

The fragment comprises a small portion of the head and bow of the brooch. The head is a flat, plain, semi-circular plate, on the reverse of which are two, semi-circular pierced lugs designed to accommodate the spring and pin. Both are missing. The bow is D-shaped in section and hollow. Where the break in the bow occurs, there are two apparently deliberate triangular notches. The foot and catchplate are missing. The fragment measures 23mm in length; the head plate measures 19mm in width. The brooch weighs 3.6g. Bayley and Butcher classify this as a Type 171 and note that it is more common in Britain and rare or missing on continental sites. It occurs on military sites including South Shields, but also on southern civilian sites. The only dated examples come from a drain at the the legionary fortress of Caerleon dating to AD 160-230 and from the Jewry Wall site at Leicester dating to about AD 220 (Bayley and Butcher 2004, 179-180)._x000D__x000D_

The figure is simply wrapped and the head is featureless, the head has also detached from the body. The head is badly stained, almost black in fact presumably stained by resin. It also has some damage to the top of the skull, a small chip on the back of the head has revealed a hole in both the wrappings and the skull, through which the skull is just visible.

durom.1952.1.49 | 1952.1.49-ll.jpg | data/raw/images/oriental/1952 | Stucco head with an oval face that may represent a Bodhisattva. The eyes are long and almond shaped with low prominent cut lids. The nose is thin, straight and is eroded at the tip. The shaped lips are pressed together in a slight smile with corner cavities. To the right of the face prominent rows of dense spiral curls cascade downwards and beneath these curls the bottom of an earlobe might be represented by two ridges of stucco. Above the face and hair rests a turban which rises from a plain band over the forehead. Above this plain band is a further band of multiple twisted strands running from a rounded ornament. This ornament sits to the right of the turban and consists of what might represent a stone set in a raised border. From this ornament, bands are drawn over the turban towards the back of the head. At intervals on these bands there are barrel shaped beads. There is a break on the top of the turban which might represent the location of a crest or beads which have now been lost. There are residues of red pigment on many features of this fragment including the right eyelids and the lips. There are also traces where the chin meets the neck, on the left side of the face and on the hair curls on the right side of the face. Pigment is also present around the twisted stands of the turban. On the left of the head there appears to be a change in the colour and texture of the stucco and this may represent modern conservation, hence why the hair on the left of the face has not been moulded into curls. | 308heads

durma.2020.3.920 | durma.2020.3.920.1-ss.jpg | data/raw/images/fulling_mill/2020 | A fragment of an unidentified copper-alloy object, with elaborate ribbed and enamelled decoration, probably dating to the Roman period. The object comprises a strip of copper-alloy, which is approximately 'n' shaped in section. At one end, the strip terminates in an end plate. The other end is distorted and broken. The straight 'back' of the object is undecorated, whereas the curved surface possesses numerous horizontal cells for enamel, created with grooves and reserve metal ribs. The cells are filled with enamel. Although the enamel is degraded and in places missing, it is clear that originally red and blue enamel appeared side by side in the same cell, alternating in panels of six cells. The underside of the object is hollow and is filled in places with lead solder. In the area where the object is broken and distorted, there is a small rectangular lug or extension. It is not clear what the function of this extension might have been. The object measures 82mm in length, 9mm in width and 7mm in thickness. It weighs 20.8g. | 497unidentified

durma.2020.3.2314 | durma.2020.3.2314.1-ll.jpg | data/raw/images/fulling_mill/2020 | A copper-alloy Knee brooch (Mackreth's decorated Knee Type 1.a dating to the late second or early third century AD. The head of the brooch comprises a tubular spring-casing at the apex of which extends a small, circular head-loop, with a slightly off-centre perforation. The tubular spring-casing is decorated with two applied horizontal, beaded ribs of white metal which extend across its full width and has circular, pierced end-plates to hold the axis bar in place. The spring and pin are intact. The head extends to a gently arched bow which is D-shaped in section. The bow tapers and then expands slightly to form a semi-circular, forward-facing foot with a flat base. The bow is decorated with two central vertical, beaded ribs of applied white metal which run the length of the bow; flanking these ribs are four triangular cells, all of which contain traces of blue enamel. There are also two rows of four applied white metal globules positioned marginally along the bow and between the enamel cells; and a single silver globule at each corner of the foot. The catchplate is solid and trapezoidal. The brooch measures 41mm in length; the head measures 12mm in width; the foot measures 7mm in width. _x000D__x000D_

The brooch is similar to Bayley and Butcher's Type 173A, which is widespread on both military and civilian sites in Britain (Bayley and Butcher 2004, 180). A very similar ,but smaller example (33mm in length) was found during the excavations at Piercebridge (Cat. No. 12). Butcher comments in the archive report (pdf/Ch11DBrooches.pdf) that: 'this appears to be a British variant of the usual knee brooch, well-known on the German limes, where it is dated to the second half of the second century (cf Böhme 1972, 22). Very similar examples are known from Gadebridge, Herts., (Neal 1974, fig 55, 25, 27), Catsgore, Somerset (Leech 1982,107 fig 77 no 22), Gloucester (Mackreth in Heighway and Garrod,1980, 105 fig 14 no 1, 105). In the northern part of Britain the same form is more often decorated with silver cf. several from Camelon (unpublished) and Traprain (Burley 1958, 160 nos 37 and 38, 160). Some of the Camelon brooches are from Antonine contexts and it is probable that the British production is of the same date as those from Germany, i.e. later second century'. See Mackreth 2011, 189 for a discussion of the type which notes that the white metal trim is a 'peculiarly British technique'._x000D__x000D_
