Engraved Gem Inset Into A Ring, 3rd century A.D. Additional Info: The gem is engraved with a dextrarum iunctio- a pair of clasped hands. The motif of the dextrarum iunctio, or "joining of right hands", became a popular device on gems in the late first century B.C., symbolizing concordia and fides, sometimes with military significance. There are some chips from the edge. The ends of the hoop of the ring overlap.
