Quote: I was totally blown away by the lists of finds from this site. Of these the juiciest items were.....shield bosses, complete and partial Gladius and sheath, tent pegs and numerous Seggy fittings and belt plates, daggers and parts of Pugions.........to name a few. Most of these items I never knew existed. Soooooo......where are all these pieces hiding?Well all of the lorica seg fittings are in Mike Thomas' catalogue of the same, whilst I'm pretty sure all the cavalry stuff made it into my cavalry article. In fact, the Waddon reports were one of the first things I acquired back in the 1970s, when I started collecting information about 1st-century equipment.
Where are they all hiding? Presumably in the county museum in Dorchester.
