Yep, know what you mean, though some early magyar types are really hard to distinguish. Interestingly this belt which I modeled and cast share a very similiar plaque? As you can see the pendant plaque is almost spot on. These were copied from a khazar mould for plaques found in Kiev circa 9thc . I havent got a scanner otherwise I would scan the article.
Cheers

Nick my belt was based on B716 :-) which was found in Birka. So bulls eye:-) It was Khazarian more than Hungarian ( its slightly different than magyar examples different kind of flowers and plants:-) ) |
