Hi All, Has anyone got any firm research on how the Romano-British small animal brooches were worn? Were they purely ornamental, as we would wear a brooch these days, or were they also used, say, to hold a couple of folds of clothing together? I want to buy some, but want to wear them properly. Nothing I've seen (even in Allason-Jones' Women in Roman Britain, and in museum books where they've gone into the construction in great depth) has any details on how they were worn.
Ta, Glenda. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
