Last season a field survey project in Basilicata, the Basentello Valley Archaeological Research Project, found some pieces of bronze armor--greaves and a shield boss(?), 5th-3rd cs. BCE--during survey at Irsina. Just one photo at this link, but they are looking for help with the conservation budget via GoFundMe. (I know the people involved, they're on the up and up!)
