I just received this great book yesterday and had not had much chance to read it in depth. I found inmediatly interesting the section about the metal musculata found in Spain on page 42.
We were just commenting on this find the other day on our legion´s forum and its significance. Reading the book´s text it says that the remains are from the III-I century BC from shipwreck.
On the very photos you attached to the text you can even read the spanish descrition of the find as:
It claims it to be from the V-IV Century BC, not the III-I BC and its points it out as "Greek". One of our members was at the museum recently and was told that the shipwreck was actually a Carthaginian one.
I´m a bit conrfused now
