Time and place for this shield boss?
#3
Thank you.  From what I know, apart from the Glauberg find, it also looks like a steel version of some of the ones from Hjortspring.  Between the two sites, it would suggest a time range of around 500-300 BCE and area of western Germany to southern Denmark, so early La Tene and Jastorf.  The thing is, it's not quite a match for either of these, so I'm just wondering if anyone has seen any archaeological finds that are more like it.
