Title
Roman lorica squamata scale armour
Description
English: A copper-alloy scale armour fragment of lorica squamata type dating to the Roman period. The scale comprises a flat, tongue-shaped plate. The scale is damaged at both ends. There are two pairs of circular, stamped perforations located on each long edge of the scale. There is a further possible circular perforation at the rectangular end of the scale, located centrally, although damage prevents this from being certain. The scale measures 32.5mm in length and 19.6mm in width. It weighs 0.8g. Although damaged, the scale appears to be of von Groller's Type V (von Groller 1901).
