Abstract:		 The left hand and forearm from a slightly over life-size bronze or copper-alloy arm was excavated during 2001 at 20'“30 Gresham Street, within the City of London. It was discarded in a quarry pit, which flooded with groundwater turning it into a pond and was subsequently backfilled c. a.d. 60'“70. The arm was presumably part of a public statue, perhaps of an emperor or god, which had been deliberately broken up. The Boudican revolt of a.d. 60/1 is one possible context for the destruction of Roman statuary in London, but the end of Nero's reign, some ten years later, is another period when any statues of this very unpopular emperor could have been broken up. Includes a catalogue of previous finds of bronze statuary from London (where more fragments of arms and hands have been recovered than anywhere else in Britain), the results of metallurgical examination of the arm, and a discussion of iconoclasm in Roman Britain.
