Pieces of a Roman bronze pan

These pieces of a Roman bronze pan, also known as a patera, were found at Lamberton Moor in Berwickshire in a hoard of Roman and native ornaments, pans and cups wrapped in a cloth.

Both pieces are now corroded and fragmentary.

Some Roman objects were used by the natives in their own ways. They were viewed as powerful objects, worthy of being sacrificed to the gods. The Lamberton Moor hoard is an example of a mixture of native and Roman objects, offered to the gods.
