Large Roman "Crucifixion Spike" type nail // Early 1st century AD
Product Description
Large ancient Roman "Crucifixion Spike" type nail. Roman Britain, c. early 1st century AD. This nice and very large iron nail was made within 45 years of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, which most likely occurred in 33 AD. If it were not for the archaeological context of their discovery, these nails would be indistinguishable from the crucifixion nails used in Judea at the time. This nail was part of a discovery found by Professor Richmond in 1961 while excavating a Roman fortress called Inchtuthil in Roman Britain. Extremely well-preserved for iron!
