Normally you should only put one item
per thread. That keeps the comments easier to track.
Unless of course the two items were found together.
The
bow fibula is known as a kopfkamm split-bow
fibula. Kopfkamm is
German for "
head crest".
It is made of bronze with stamped silver plating attached to parts.
It is a Germanic
type, not a
Roman type. It originated with the Wielbark culture in northern
Poland. They were a proto-Gothic/pre-Gothic Germanic culture that moved SE to Ukraine.
This
fibula type dates from the 2nd to the early 3rd century AD (periods B2/C1). The
type was thus active during the Marcomannic Wars but was not a main Marcomannic
type.
It is know as
Almgren type 129 and is
Robert Ivan's
type 3.4.3.9 in
his corpus of
fibula from Slovakia.
The other
fibula is an
umbonate plate fibula with enamel inlay. I will look up more on it later.
