Extract

Strap-unions of the types discussed in this study were made during the later part of the pre-Roman Iron Age and during the earliest part of the Roman occupation of Britain. Their distribution (fig. 1) and details of their chronology and cultural associations and also the evidence for their precise use are considered in the concluding sections of this paper.
