The attachment plate (1.76mm thick) has two arms either side of a cut-out for the pin, broken just as they begin to curve (originally around the buckle's axis bar). The top plate widens beyond the arms (max.width) with a rivet hole at the centre (1.34mm wide) and the narrows to a waist at the centre of the plate (9.64mm wide) before widening …

Between the openwork corners the outer edges have a trefoil feature, moulded at the front and concave at the rear. The frame is steeply bevelled internally and externally at the front but not at the rear. At each side, where the spindle entered the frame, there is a moulded trefoil feature which is similar to those at…

Complete but very worn cast cu-alloy late Roman pelta-shaped buckle dating to the 3rd century AD. This buckle is probably a derivative of late Roman military dolphin buckles. The buckle frame no longer has the shape of two dolphins, but is layed out in a simple geometrical style with the rectangular strap bar attached to the loop. S Laycock and C Marshall argue that "...the distribution of the dolphins buckle along the imperial borders in continental Europe makes it fairly clear that the buckles there have a primarily military function. Their stylistic diversity and distribution on ci…
