Button-and-Loop Fasteners in the Roman Provinces

Abstract

For over sixty years the type of fastener under review in this note has been known to archaeologists in Britain as a dress- or cloak-fastener. It is characterized by a button-like head from the back of which a shank or loop projects. The shank is bent at an angle of 90° so as to lie roughly parallel to the head, but it remains slightly offset.
