Colchester belt plates
#1
Doea anyone have any picutres of the original Colchester belt plates that can be found in B&C2 page 108 #10.

The pictures could be a drawing based on the original or the original belt plates themselves. I prefer the original so that I can have them reproduced.

Also does anyone have a reconstruction of these. I would like to see what they look like.

Other helpful information such as the period, materials used, niello or enamel inlay, dimensions would also be appreciated.

Thanks

Send me a PM Doc!

Colchester is my local Museum. We sell quite a few reproductions of finds from the museum including quite a few belt parts.

An old topic, but interesting.

Could you send pictures of the Colchester belt plates that can be found in "the pre-flavian military belt: the evidence from britain", page 61, no 1, 2 and 12 (although that`s a hod-hill plate) to me please? I have drawings of them, but an extra picture of the original makes more clear. When you don`t have that book I will send some pictures to show you which plates I mean. Thank you in advance Smile .
