The archaeological identification book "Belts" deals with an extraordinary group of archaeological finds, which is characterized by particularly diverse and richly decorated pieces. Belts play a special role in the equipment of Roman soldiers, as a sign of dignity for Frankish warriors or in women's costumes. In addition to the composition of complete belt sets and belt chains, the focus is on individual parts such as buckles, belt hooks and strap tongues. Each type is characterized by a precise description of its form and variants, by information on age and distribution as well as by references to the use of the fittings.
The "Bestimmungsbuch Archäologie" series presents archaeological finds from the German-speaking world from the earliest times to the High Middle Ages. Each volume is systematically organized and has been specially designed for the identification of archaeological collections. It is scientifically sound, comprehensively illustrated and is suitable for the specialist as well as for students or local historians.

Like parts 1-3, the latest volume 4 "Cosmetic and medical equipment" is a MUST! Often you can only find fragments of the finds described in the books that have been plowed up. Identification is much easier thanks to the books. Money well spent and worth every euro!
