Length 74.0mm, width 9.5mm (ibid, fig 2, 15).
Hairpin (Fig 195; 430)
430 Fig 195 SF BUC 686(C), C1348 L2. Late Period 1 or Period 2.
An unfinished hairpin of Type 6 (pp 24-5; ibid, fig 2, 14).
Miscellaneous fragments (Fig 196; 4390-4395)
4390 Fig 196 SF BUC 690, C1338 L2. Late Period 1 or Period 2. A
triangular offcut, 48.5 by 44.0 by 36.0mm.
4391 Fig 196 SF BUC 688, C1343 L2. Late Period 1 or Period 2. A
very thin sawn fragment probably originally rectangular.
Length 36.0mm, width 23.5 mm, thickness 0.5 mm.
4392 Fig 196 SF BUC 683, C1364 L2. Late Period 1 or Period 2. A
fragment of the pelvic girdle of a pig, 43.0 by 38.0mm. Part
of one surface seems to have been sawn or cut into.
4393 Fig 196 SF BUC 697, C1389 G405. Grave fill. Period 2. A
fragment with a V-shaped cut-out at one end and a Vshaped
mark on the surface. Length 34.0mm, width
16.0mm,
4394 Fig 196 SF BUC 754, C1477 L2. Late Period 1 or Period 2. A
small piece of bone, stained green. Possibly cut on one side.
The green staining is most likely to be caused by the
proximity of copper-alloy salts as the practice of staining
bone hairpins green seems to be restricted to the 1st and
2nd centuries.
4395 Fig 196 SF BUC 768, C1683 G444. Grave fill. Period 2. A
disc roughly cut from an ox scapula. Possibly an early stage
in the manufacture of a leaf similar to 4364 and 4365. The
diameter varies from 56.0 to 51.0mm. Fig 193 Lathe-turned pegs from Butt Road (1:1)
