riveted patera - richsc - 07-08-2003 In a book I just got on Roman Bath, there are numerous patera recovered from the sacred well, and all the handles on them are riveted in place. This goes sort of against what I was told that patera were all pounded out of a single piece of bronze, or hinged. Other than Bath, does anyone know of other finds of patera that were riveted?<br> <br> the book is Barry Cunliffe's "Roman Bath Rediscovered" from Tempus Publishing. <p></p><i></i> Re: riveted patera - Anonymous - 07-10-2003 sounds familar-- might have something somewhere <p><img src="http://homepage.ntlworld.com/mark.martin/forum/mark.gif " width="100" height="100" align="right"> </p><i></i> Re: riveted patera - richsc - 07-10-2003 It's just that in our group the insistence is on a solid patera, which is a lot more trouble to make. I hope the riveted one holds up to scrutiny, as I can then get one! <p></p><i></i> |
