Avete,
I've heard that based on archeological finds in Danish bogs that Late Roman belts and baldrics were sewen from two pieces of leather with the smoothe sides facing outward.
Can anyone confirm this ?
I'm trying to reconstruct this belt and baldric :
If the belts are made from two separate pieces of leather sewen together, what ounce (or how thick) should each piece of leather be ?
Thank you for any insights anyone can offer..
