Typically made from materials like bronze or iron, Roman keys were often small and intricately designed to fit into complex locks, which were a common feature in Roman homes, shops, and public buildings. The locks they operated were generally made of wood or metal and could be quite sophisticated, incorporating pin-and-tumbler mechanisms similar to modern locks. Keys were often carried on a person, and their design sometimes included a ring-shaped handle, allowing them to double as finger rings, a practical solution that made them easy to carry and also a display of wealth or status.Keys held symbolic value in Roman society as well. For wealthy Romans, owning and using keys was a marker of personal security and control over valuable goods, such as money, jewelry, and important documents. The presence of keys signified that someone had possessions worth safeguarding, and they could also represent authority and independence, particularly for Roman women. A key ring given to a bride on her wedding day, for example, symbolized her new role as the manager of the household and its resources. Keys thus became more than functional objects—they were symbols of trust and responsibility in both personal and public life.In addition to their daily use in homes and businesses, Roman keys have been found in tombs and burial sites, signifying their importance even in death. Keys placed in graves could represent the deceased's continued guardianship over their possessions or symbolize their journey to the afterlife, unlocking the gates of the underworld. The craftsmanship and materials used in Roman keys provide insight into the technological advancements of the time, as well as the social and economic conditions in which they were created. These small but significant objects tell us much about Roman security practices, social norms, and the values attached to ownership and authority.

ITEM: Weight loom with mark depicting a headMATERIAL: PotteryCULTURE: GreekPERIOD: 3rd - 1st Century B.CDIMENSIONS: 20 mm x 67 mm diameterCONDITION: Good conditionPROVENANCE: Ex French private collection, acquired between 1960 - 1990Comes with Certificate of Authenticity and Export Licence. If you are from outside the European Union, we will have to apply for the export licence again for your country, this takes 3 to 5 weeks and has a cost of 5% of the hammer price, this amount will be added to the final invoice.The Greek weight loom, or lomentum, was an essential tool in ancient textile production, particularly during the classical and Hellenistic periods. This device was used to create woven fabrics and was integral to the textile industry in ancient Greece. The weight loom consisted of a series of weights and cords that were used to maintain tension on the warp threads while the weaver worked on the weft. This system allowed for the production of various types of textiles, from simple garments to intricate patterned fabrics, demonstrating the sophistication and skill of ancient Greek weavers.Loom weights from this period often bear distinct markings or inscriptions, which can provide valuable insights into the social and economic aspects of textile production. These marks might include symbols, initials, or even small inscriptions that could indicate the ownership of the weights or their place of origin. In some cases, the weights were stamped with the names of manufacturers or patrons, serving both practical and administrative purposes. Such inscriptions can help historians and archaeologists trace the trade and distribution of textiles and loom weights across different regions of ancient Greece.The use of marked loom weights also reflects the broader context of textile production in Greek society. Weaving was an important economic activity, often carried out in domestic settings or by specialized artisans. The marked weights indicate a level of standardization and organization in the textile industry, suggesting that loom weights were not just functional tools but also components of a regulated trade system. Archaeological finds of these weights, along with other weaving tools and remains of textile workshops, offer insights into the technical aspects of weaving, as well as the economic and social organization surrounding textile production in ancient Greece.
ITEM: StylusMATERIAL: BronzeCULTURE: RomanPERIOD: 1st - 3rd Century A.DDIMENSIONS: 142 mm x 9 mmCONDITION: Good conditionPROVENANCE: Ex Dutch private collection, acquired before 1990sComes with Certificate of Authenticity and Export Licence. If you are from outside the European Union, we will have to apply for the export licence again for your country, this takes 3 to 5 weeks and has a cost of 5% of the hammer price, this amount will be added to the final invoice.The Roman stylus was a versatile writing instrument used primarily for inscribing on wax tablets, which were a common medium for recording information in ancient Rome. The stylus typically had a pointed end for writing and a flat, broad end for erasing or smoothing the wax surface. Made from materials such as metal (bronze or iron), ivory, bone, or wood, the stylus was an essential tool in both educational and administrative contexts. Wax tablets were reusable; the surface could be smoothed out and rewritten over, making the stylus a practical choice for note-taking and document drafting.Roman styluses varied in design, reflecting both functional and aesthetic considerations. The pointed end of the stylus was used to inscribe text or draw on the wax tablet, while the flat end was employed to smooth out the wax for reuse or to correct mistakes. More elaborate styluses, especially those used by wealthy individuals, might be ornately decorated with inscriptions, inlays, or artistic designs. The decoration not only enhanced the appearance of the stylus but also signaled the owner's status and personal taste. Inscriptions on styluses could sometimes include the owner's name or professional title, adding a personalized touch to these everyday tools.The use of styluses and wax tablets highlights the Roman approach to writing and record-keeping, which was both practical and adaptable. These writing tools were integral to various aspects of Roman life, from administrative work and legal documentation to educational exercises and personal correspondence. The durability and practicality of the stylus made it a favored instrument across the Roman Empire, and archaeological finds of styluses in different regions reveal their widespread use and the continuity of Roman literacy practices. The study of Roman styluses provides valuable insights into the daily functions of Roman society and the tools that facilitated its extensive administrative and cultural activities.

These artifacts served as both functional tools for cosmetic preparation and as symbols of status and identity within society. Cosmetic palettes from this period typically consisted of flat, circular or oval-shaped pieces of stone or other materials, often adorned with intricate engravings or relief carvings depicting religious, mythological, or symbolic motifs.In ancient Egypt, cosmetic palettes were widely used for grinding and mixing cosmetics, such as kohl for eyeliner or various ointments and pigments for body adornment. These palettes were crafted from materials like schist, slate, or limestone and were often decorated with elaborate designs that reflected the artistic styles and religious beliefs of the time. Many palettes featured animal motifs, geometric patterns, or scenes from mythology and everyday life, serving as artistic expressions of the cultural milieu in which they were created.Beyond their utilitarian function, cosmetic palettes also held symbolic significance in ancient societies. In addition to being practical objects for cosmetic preparation, they were often associated with rituals, ceremonies, and beliefs surrounding beauty, health, and spiritual protection. In some cultures, cosmetic palettes were buried as grave goods alongside the deceased, reflecting beliefs in the afterlife and the importance of personal adornment and grooming even in death.

These robust implements, encompassing scalpels, forceps, and probes, manifest the Romans’ dedication to surgical precision and patient well-being. These tools played pivotal roles in an array of medical procedures, from intricate surgeries to wound management, underscoring the Romans’ unwavering commitment to the practice and science of healing. In contemporary times, these relics remain enduring symbols of the enduring influence of Roman medicine and surgical prowess.This is similar to the spatula probe, but has a narrow leaf shaped spoon in place of the spatula. They also have the same olivary end as spatula probes. For pharmaceutical purposes the spoon was used to remove medicines from their flasks, explaining the many different sizes of the spoon and handle. It might have been used to mix ointments as well. For surgery Milne suggests it might have been used as a curette (1907: 62). There is also the possibility that it was applied in lithotomy operations to help remove stones from the urethra (Jackson 1994b: 181; Milne 1907: 62).

North Africa, particularly regions like modern-day Tunisia, Algeria, and Libya, became vital to the empire for its agricultural production, especially grain, olive oil, and wine. Roman vessels, including merchant ships, were essential for transporting these goods from the fertile plains of North Africa to Rome and other parts of the empire. The region's harbors, such as Carthage, Leptis Magna, and Sabratha, became bustling centers of maritime trade, connecting North Africa to Italy, Spain, and the Eastern Mediterranean.The design and technology of Roman vessels used in North Africa reflected the broader Roman advancements in shipbuilding. These ships were often built to be sturdy and capable of handling long voyages across the Mediterranean. They varied in size and purpose, with some designed for large cargo loads, while others were used for military purposes, like protecting coastal regions or transporting soldiers. Roman merchant vessels, typically equipped with a single large sail and several oars, were key to moving bulk goods, such as African grain and oil, which became the lifeblood of Rome, particularly in times of food shortages.The cultural exchange facilitated by these Roman vessels in North Africa was profound. Along with goods, ideas, religions, and art traveled across the sea, leading to the spread of Roman culture and the development of a distinct Romano-African identity. Roman amphorae, ceramics, and other artifacts discovered in North African archaeological sites reveal the extent of this interaction. Roman architecture, language, and customs became deeply rooted in the region, blending with local traditions to create a unique cultural landscape. Roman vessels, therefore, were not just tools of commerce, but vehicles for the transformation of North Africa into a crucial and vibrant part of the Roman world.

In contemporary times, these relics remain enduring symbols of the enduring influence of Roman medicine and surgical prowess.The Spatula probe consists of a long thin handle and tends to range in size from roughly 6 to 15 centimetres with a spatula on one end of its handle and an olivary probe on its other end, indicating its multifunctionality. The spatula is usually leaf-shaped and tends to be flat on one side and slightly rounded on the other. Some spatula ends are quite thin, perhaps five or six millimetres in width, whilst others are short and blunt. Some have more of a rectangular shape to them and others have a spatulat blade on both ends. It could be used for spreading medicaments on infected areas of the body as well as mixing medicines on an ointment pallet. Sometimes the spatula could be used as a cautery, as Soranus mentions using it on the umbilical cord (Gyn 3. 27, Milne 1907: 60). It could also be used as a tongue depressor and as a blunt dissector (Milne 1907: 59-60). The olivary end could be used in the same way as many already suggested for the double-ended olivary probe.
