Abstract

Among the finds in the site museum at Corbridge are two related silvered ZA bronze mirrors. Although there are no details about the precise find spot, they can be paralleled by a number of mirrors found mainly in the region of the Lower Rhine, and by several undecorated examples from excavations in England. The first piece is a large fragment of an almost plain disc (PL. XVIII A), slightly convex on its reflecting side and with a narrow slightly convex border on the under side, marked off from the body of the mirror by a single engraved line 0·8 cm from the edge. The fragment measures 7·6 by 6·0 cm; the original diameter would have been about 9·8 cm.
