Recontruction of Belt from Herculaneum and Pompeii in 79 AD.
#57
The skeleton was founded with a Pompei sword, so if you want to "duplicate" this soldier, you have to choose such sword.

Curious is that a little Mainz, with a pugio sizes was founded too asociated with this body. As is bad published, i'm not sure if it is the object visible in the picture and that i have identified as a pugio.

Seems that this is the another belt:

I have used the search engine of RAT, and there are a lot of topics about that soldier. So, i think it were better to re-read the old topics, because there contains all the data actually disposable. If anybody have new aportations (another pictures of the plates, etc,) please post it.
