Melun Pugio help please? - Martin Moser - 01-27-2006
Hi all,
does anybody know of pictures or sources for the pugio found near Melun in the late 60s (I think it was)?
I have
-M. Petit. Notes sur un poignard romain du musee de Melun. 1973/74.
-Jürgen Obmann. Studien zu römischen Dolchscheiden des 1. Jahrhunderts n. Chr. 1990.
Only drawings in there, unfortunately no photographs, and I would like to see the real thing ...
Thanks in advance for any help,
Martin

ooops, just realized that for some no-brain reason I posted this here instead of in the Roman Military History & Archaeology forum :-P P - maybe a kind moderator could move this?
Thanks,
Martin

Martin,
Do you mean the pugio found at Mehrum. If so I too have drawings of it but no photograph. Mike Bishop may be able to help.

No, I don't think thats the one (where is Mehrum?), I mean a
"poignard de fer, decouvert dans la Seine, a Melun, lors <<des fouilles du Grand Pont>> en 1869"
It's a pugio in its sheath, most of the handle is missing.
cheers,
Martin

melun pugio - maarten - 08-02-2006
I do not have any pictures, but the book of Obmann gives a good drawing. I have reconstruted the melun iron plate and am currently trying to fill the engravings with silver.
I will try to send you a picture soon,

Hi Maarten,
thanks for letting me know. I have the Obmann book as well as the original publication (see above), but would like to get a glimpse of the real thing. I tried to contact the museum, but never received an answer unfortunately. Looking forward to see your reconstruction!

You could be right!!
Maarten, make yourself known!
Re: Melun Pugio help please? - maarten - 08-03-2006
I've tried several times to get a message and picture of the Melun plate on to the forum, but am constantly (after half a minute) thrown out (pagina verlopen). Can anyone give me advice how to stop being thrown out?

Wow! stunning work Maarten.
