gladi gemini et ageminati
#4
Well, what I know is just they come form Moesia or Dacia.

In later spathae the inlays are towards the point, how in this case is the Victoria, while Mars is upside down. Or at least it seems so, I think that there wasn't a strict rule in all ancient military stuff.

As expected,xrf shows that gold is added with copper in order the get a proper alloy.

Brennivs, why do you think is an unusual way to do images?  Tongue
