Actual Balteus Buckle and Apron Terminus Construction
#8
That's fascinating, thanks so much for sharing!

I still can't believe you were able to make out the dotted-designs on the buckle. I would have looked right over them or thought them deterioration marks...Just amazing!

As for the Phallic symbol with T. Flavius Ambiorix's plates - Maybe that IS the Roman's name...Biggus Dickus??

So sorry I couldn't resist that... :twisted:
