Ave!

Avar, Belt and Strap Assortment, c. 6th-8th Century AD

Copper alloy;

Con/ Nearly as fabricated

Seller's Note/ An excellent ensemble for beginning collectors. The Avars loved their bling and these are no exception. Such plates were affixed to the back of their belts and would flash, making a jingling sound as they rode along.

Imagine the jolly and jingling Avars sweeping into your town or village...and burning it to the ground.
