Number of dagger belt plates 1st half 1st c.
#28
Brian, it would be just enough to look at the excavation report, I think. Hint:

J.-M.A.W. Morel & A.V.A.J. Bosman, "An early Roman burial in Velsen I", in C. van Driel-Murray (ed.), Roman Military Equipment: the Sources of Evidence (Oxford, 1989), 167-191.

I guess Duncan knows something here as well.

Auerberg: The belts were wrapped around the daggers, which were then deposited in a wooden cistern, before to was closed. No reason to assume they are incomplete.
