Clasp helenistico

[marcii ulpi messala]

It seems to me to be interesting to share the reconstruction of this clasp for " lorica hamata " of decorative style helenistico, particularly that I know they are all of Celt.

Where was the original piece found?

Do you have pictures of the original?

[marcii ulpi messala]

It was found in the province of Seville (Spain). The original one:

Hello, Gabriel!

It's a computer reconstruction or a real reconstruction? If it's real, who makes it?

Are at Sevilla more military items? I know the apron terminals from Aznalcazar, used in my apron reconstruction.

It is a computer reconstruction extracted of the original fragment. In the archaeological museum of Seville there is a room dedicated to the Roman army, but they have very slightly materially on the military equipment(team) of the soldier, practically only the hangers of the belt found in Aznalcazar's tomb. This piece of the clasp of a lorica hamata is in a private collection.

[LUCIUS ALFENUS AVITIANUS]

Thanks. Can you put some pictures of the Aznalcazar's items? I only know it by drawings, of the Aurrocoechea's publication.

[marcii ulpi messala]

Good, I will send the images in the minor possible time.

[marcii ulpi messala]

Cesar, I could not have obtained better images, my excuses. In this burial is observed that the owner lost someone of the original hangers and was later rechanging them for others of similar design, this fact should have been common enough between the Roman soldiers.

J. Aurrecoechea Fernández apparently publishes quite a lot on military belts. Would anyone happen to know (and be able to share) the citations for the article(s) in which the items from this tomb are published? Or any other publications they might have by other authors? I would be most grateful.

Yes:

Joaquin Aurrecoechea Fernández
"Apron fittings from Flavian times found in Spain" JRMES, 9, 1998, 37-44

Another one, practically identical was founded at Caerleon: M.C. Bishop, "Early imperial apron", JRMES, 3, 1992, Fig. 16, 97.
