Full Description
PRN 64437
Polychrome glass bead recovered from a Romano-British ditch. A disc of green glass, decorated with white applied crossed wavy trails and dots. Similar beads are known from (late) 6th and 7th century contexts elsewhere, as a the Saxon cemeteries at Fonaby, Buckland and West Stow. The ditch fill was otherwise dated to the late 3rd or 4th century, so this must be an intrusive piece.{1}{2}
