Quote:Yes, indeed you're completely right they are similar in conception. In fact they respond to the same sort of anthropomorfization of the hilt.
My point was (or intended to be, I hurried too much) that there is not a DIRECT link between Celtic anthropomorphic hilts and Celtiberian trilobate hilts. My opinion is that they respond to a parallel development (more than a bit later in Iberia).

This would be something which would be nice to explore further.

If we are dealing with a tri-lobate pommel dating between 100BC to 100AD then it is some time after adoption of the Hispaniensis so a parralel developement sounds reasonable. Considering this there might have been some cross cultural polonisation of hilt styles. For instance I have read that in the British Isles the swords were influenced by Roman styles, even before Claudius.
