Body chain Hoxne hoard

The Hoxne (pronounced 'Hoxon') hoard is the richest find of treasure from Roman Britain. Alongside the approximately 15,000 coins were many other precious objects, buried for safety at a time when Britain was passing out of Roman control.

This body chain is a type of ornament with a long history since it can be seen in representations in both Hellenistic and Roman art, however the real pieces found are extremely rare.

The size of the original chain indicates that it was worn by a thin woman or a teenage girl with a bust that fitted very well on a thin garment.
