Reproduction of a comb shaped like an eardrum at the top and teeth at the bottom. In the tympanum-shaped area, it has a relief decoration made up of concentric circles that is repeated on the back of it. In Roman times the baths were like a beauty salon for women, they would bathe and apply various beauty treatments, among them, they would fix their hair.
Several models of combs are preserved, they do not present many differences with some combs that we can use today, in ancient times they were made of various materials, including boxwood, bone, ivory, copper, silver or gold among others.
