Objects Other than Pottery
15. Bronze Fragments from a Girdle-plate. Pl.
VI. M.S.820. These fragments were found in 1936
among the charred bones within the burial urn. The
largest piece, put together from nine fragments, ter-
minates in a hook. It is made of two sheets of bronze
ornamented with repousse dot circles and placed back
to back. Their edges are rolled back as in No. 24 from
Vulci 42 F, Pl. L. Another fragment consists of a strip
ornamented with lengthwise grooves, which is enlarged
at one end and attached by two large rivets to another
grooved strip, which was perhaps the other end of the
central ornament. Compare MonAnt. IV, col. 223, Fig.
99, z. The strip with lengthwise grooves may be the
beginning of the bronze covering of the belt proper of
which another smaller fragment is preserved.
16. Three Biconical Bronze Coils. Pl. VI. M.S.
824a, b, and c. The length of the best preserved is
0.014 m.
