| Title |
Late roman military buckle frame |
||
| Description |
English: Incomplete late Roman military belt-buckle. The fragment is made of copper alloy and consists of the the attachment end of a triangular buckle plate. It has two broken arms, one to either side of a central triangular perforation, and a broken pierced circular terminal at the apex of the triangle. The plate is undecorated and there is some bronze/?iron corrosion on the reverse of the broken circular terminal, presumably the remains of a rivet.
The frame and the part of the plate next to it is missing, but from other more complete examples can be plausibly reconstructed as either a D-shaped or incurved frame and an integral plate. For more complete examples, see LIN-6312A0, NLM-016B08, ESS-E52552, GLO-FA9938 and NARC-C6E5B8. H. W. Böhme studied buckles with integral triangular plates as part of his survey of late Roman artefacts in Britain, and the settlement of England by the earliest Anglo-Saxons (Böhme 1986, Liste 1, Abb. 5, Abb. 14). He dated them to the middle or second half of the 4th century and his map shows that they are found in small numbers not only in England and South Wales but also along the European frontier of the Roman Empire, along the Rhine and Danube rivers. |
