Description
Five-spiral bronze spring fibula with a small plate arch and decorated foot, which is missing the pin. The bow consists of a curved insert with a single central incision that crosses it vertically. The foot, broken at the beginning and which was restored, is finely decorated with a circular inlay probably made of bone that adorns its end. It has reached us in a very rusty condition and is difficult to identify; the spring is deformed. It is a very simple type of fibula, very different from the complex bronze fibulae.
