Roman
Rings
Roman rings are often found in various states of
preservation. Roman rings were made of various metals and some were set with
stones, glass, and intaglios. There are Archer's rings and key rings, both of
which can be very desirable. Later rings of the Byzantine period can be found
with crosses, both obvious and hidden, and show the conversion from Paganism to
Christianity that occurred in the Roman empire.
