I would agree probably not very many actual pieces.
On another note found my images of the Ashmolean Scythian armour this came from a book that was online on the AM site, but since the site has been updated its gone, as far as I remember the book title was something like "Scythian Treasures in Oxford Ashmolean Museum" added link, I believe this is the one:
Included text, dimensions and original reference:
Also a neck protector from Dervini (Macedonian) this came from a greek book which included an extensive english summary called unsurprisingly "The Dervini Tombs" original title "ΟΙ ΤΑΦΟΙ ΤΟΥ ΔΕΡΒΕΝΙΟΥ" :
Gilded bronze on leather no dimensions that I can see:

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
