Title
Roman Hipposandal
Description
English: Incomplete Roman iron hipposandal. The oval plate has a curved back edge, terminating in a downward pointing hook. The front has an upward projection, which would have terminated in a loop (now missing) for attachment. To either side of the plate is a broken, sub-rectangular projection, which would have been bent towards the front projection to hold the hoof in place. The iron is heavily corroded, with fragments flaking off the surface. The plate measures 155mm in length, increasing to 185mm to take into account the projecting rear hook. It is 115.73mm wide, including the side projections. The plate is 5.93mm thick. The front projection is 96.50mm long, and has a sub-rectangular cross section measuring 10.89mm by 11.57mm.
