Thanks Robert. I know of the Traprain buckle and it came aswell to my mind.
Here the Quoit Brooch style buckle from Pont-de-Buis, Finistère in Western Brittany. Buckle dated late 4th-early 5th century but glassware late 5th-early 6th century. There are also two square quoit brooch style buckles in the main burial at Saint-Marcel, Morbihan in eastern Brittany, in a second quarter of the 5th century context.
