Quote:A lot of stuff in french

And do any of them give any information on any sheath remains? I'd appreciate any info but suspect not; something found in the mid 19th C was probably cleaned back to the metal.

That's what comes of me being too lazy to wade through the french stuff. Do you mean that one of the buckles on display in the museum is a 19th copy? I know that one of the gold and garnet ones (the one with several garnets missing, analysed by Demortier in the 1980s) was repaired in the 19th C (at the point of articulation between buckle and plate...I bet that someone went "Oh look, it still bends...oops") but apart from that I thought they were all as found.

I saw it there years ago, before the advent (for me anyway) of digi-cams...I'll have to see if I can track down a picture of it online so that I can identify the curved one.
