i am having a bit of trouble finding information on roman pendants and the meanings behind the shape and distribution of them, mainly military .... i am VERY green in this area of research and have only recently become interested in the identification of them...... i have 2 i am dealing with now, i know they are most likely military and worn to the left of the belt apron. 2nd to 3rd century, common sense would tell me they had some kind of fortification\\protection meaning, but i would like to know in detail what they are and why they had been worn.... any info, or a push in the right direction will be greatly appreciated!!!
thank you for your time!
