An incomplete cast copper-alloy anthropomorphic figurine of probable earlier Roman date, probably of the first or second century AD. Only about half the figurine survives, taking the form of a hooded and cloaked standing male before truncating abruptly in an old, worn break. Folds in the cloak are represented by parallel incisions, while on the face (though worn) the eyes and hair have been rendered quite realistically. Condition: good despite wear, even dark greenish patina. Length: c. 30mm. Discussion: this object may represent one of the genii cucullacti or 'hooded gods' apparently beloved in Late Iron Age and early Roman Britain. Named after their distinctive attire (the cucullus, a sort of conjoined hooded poncho), they are thought to be associated with the concepts of prosperity and fertility. A number of depictions are known, some in stone from Hadrian's wall, others in the form of small figurines somewhat similar to this potential example. Provenance: from the collection of an ex metal detectorist, found Oxfordshire/Berkshire/Hampshire in the 1980s or 1990s.
An incomplete cast lead-alloy Neo-Classical statuette or figurine of probable 18th or early 19th century date. The object takes the form of a standing figure with long hair, wearing a Roman-style cuirass and with a dagger slung at his belt. In his left hand, the figure holds an oval shield, the remnants of a spear haft in his right. Probably originally stood on a pedestal, which is now broken away along with the statuette's feet. Survives to a height of c. 85mm. Provenance: from the collection of a metal detectorist.
A cast copper-alloy figurine depicting Christ crucified, dating c. 1100-1300. The figurine is missing its hands, but is otherwise complete-if somewhat eroded. Classically depicted, the figurine’s head tilts to the left onto its shoulder, naked with the exception of a loincloth draped around the figure’s midriff and knotted at the left hip. Concentric ‘V’ shaped recesses and parallel linear grooves realistically convey the deep folds in the cloth. The feet are depicted as if nailed together, a projecting stub on the back of the figurine clearly intending to represent the latter and probably also an indication that this figurine was attached to something larger. Condition: fair, but quite rough surfaces. Treated by finder. Length: 72mm. Weight: 37.96g. Provenance: found Isle of Wight, 2015. Recorded on the PAS as IOW-64A3DE.
A cast copper-alloy fragment probably originating from an anthropomorphic statue, figurine or furniture fitting of Roman date, c. AD 43-410. The fragment in its current state reflects the right hand side of a male individuals' face, the lips, eye, nose and a portion of hairline. Unfortunately, it is impossible to attribute an identity to the individual. Length: c. 42mm.Provenance: from the collection of a metal detectorist.
