BRONZE SPIKED RING (“PASSARENDINI”)
Italic culture, circa 6th–4th century BC.

Cast leaded bronze spiked ring, featuring a circular inner opening and an outer perimeter articulated with groups of short conical projections. Such objects are generally interpreted as elements of ring-shaped mace heads or related striking weapons.

Fine green patina. Mounted on a modern display stand, included.

Weight: 17.51 g.
Diameter: 26 mm.
Generally referred to as 'passaredini' and thus related to the equestrian sphere, this type of bronze object apparently has no certain function. Another hypothesis of use sees these objects as belonging to the military or domestic sphere.
