Girdle plates in Stillfried, Austria
#4
Ciao Richard.

I went to get a (top secret) preview of that together with Jasper Oorthuys and Jenny Cline in Mainz in 2002.
Stillfried segmentata was found in 2000 in Austria far I remember.

I can say that those two (?) loricas are incredible. They have just a little bit of rust and the metal seems just an old object, not an ancient one.
Stillfried loricas have not shoulder pieces far I remember, but only girdle loops and I remember a very important detail: there are hooks probably to support the balteus (cingulum militaris).
