Hello,
What is the source of this picture please? Are you sure it is a gladius hispaniensis?
Isn't that a celtic handle design? Dunno about what's left of pommel and guard? It does remind me of roman pommels and guards but what do I know... Has it been dated? What shape, width, length is/has the blade?

Btw, I'm slightly disturbed that nobody seem to know of any metal hilt remains from gladii... A lot of
popular representations of gladii seem to use metal hilts, osprey(I know..but pure speculation??)...

Cheers,
Jesper

Cheers,
Jesper
