Hello all, and sorry to pester...am stuck in the middle of translating a German article on swords and scabbards and have no decent library around me. So out goes the call for all you wise people to help me!
What on earth is a Schwertriemenbuegel in English? As in those things that are used from the early 2nd century onwards to loop leather supporting straps through?
And, please don't tell me they are slides. For if they *are* slides, then what on earth are Mundbleche?
Thanks v much for all your help!
