The Barkway hoard. Roman Britain, 3rd CE. From Barkway, Hertfordshire. The very large silver votive leaf is inscribed with a dedication to Mars Toutatis by a man called Tiberius Claudius Primus. Toutatis was a native deity, and the combination of Latin and Celtic god-names is a recurring feature of religion in Roman Britain. Vulcan, the Roman god of fire and craftsmanship, identifiable by his blacksmith's hammer and tongs, is also depicted on other silver leaves. H. 51.2 cm. (largest plaque). Inv. PY 1817,0308.4(&Others).
