The ancient stirrup pictured somewhere below is from that area. In the future I will show a perfect condition Celtic spear point, a Roman Fibel, and a perfect condition Celtic arrow point. We hope to return to this spot sometime. We just got lucky and stumbled onto this place while looking for relics in a battlefield area.

Wow! What a fantastic find!!!! That's got be close to the find of a lifetime!!!

"Fibel" is what the Germans call a big bronze Roman sort of a safety pin. It was most often used at the neck to hold a garment from falling off the shoulders. I think the real name is fibula. Christian display one somewhere at one time.

Yes, I think the English term is "Fibula" maybe it is also the original Latin writing for which there might not be an idiomatic translation.
