Late roman belt set from Traprain Law, Scotland
#5
Quote: The report on the hoard find by Curle is old, it dates from 1923 and nearly impossible to get.

I know the book (Curle, The Treasure of Traprain. A Scottish Hoard of Roman Silver Plate 1923) is impossible to get, but maube the dig reports hold a clue?
Go here:

Go to Archives:

keyword search:
"Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland"

You"ll have to agree to their terms to use the site by now, I think

You'll get 3 hits, one of them being:
"The Society of Antiquaries of Scotland"

The link opens to their page with publications:
http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/archives/view/psas/

This is the one you want:
Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland
Vols. 1-141 (1850-2011)

The Traprain Law publications are:
Cree, J E 1923 ‘Account of the excavations on Traprain Law during the summer of 1922’, Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 57 (1922–3), 180–226.
Cree, J E 1924 ‘Account of the excavations on Traprain Law during the summer of 1923’, Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 58 (1923–4), 241–85.
Cree, J E & Curle, A O 1922 ‘Account of the excavations on Traprain Law during the summer of 1921’, Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 56 (1921–2), 189–259.

I scanned the articles for images but did not come across the belt.
