Hello friends! :hello:

Today hunt a far field of the Roman villa of the vineyards are being treated with copper sulfate and not return till August when they are pruned, but .... I have a few interesting Medieval finds and coins but today only one coin is Roman .
Medieval buckle plate is very large but not complete is a very good finding and Medieval pottery fragment is engraved with a fish this is one of the oldest Christian symbols (represented by a fish is that some of early Christians were fishermen on the Sea of Galilee.) this piece of clay cup was perhaps the cup of the Lord's Supper? .... ::)

Hello TnMountains! :hello:

found in the vineyards near this castle which was founded during the 12th century(was not done by me

) ,is the only Christian representation of a fish I seen in Spain, we throughout the Middle Ages, always in my country use the symbol of the Latin cross to represent Jesus, but perhaps this cup was brought by some Knight Templar during the Crusades, from another instead ..... a very interesting piece of pottery. :thumbsup:

Hello Hispan :hello:

Interesting finds today! :icon_thumright:

You must hunt early in the morning to avoid the intense heat? :icon_scratch:

These are my two favourites!

What do you thing the chain links came from, also what's this piece with the two holes in it? :dontknow:

Take care,
Dave

Without seeing the reverse, it looks more like a book clasp than a buckle plate $:-\$

Then it would be my best book clasp :hello2:

, (although all I have are much thinner :icon_scratch:

) in the two cases are buckles, here we do not differentiate Buckles Books to Human Buckles .... If the hinges of the doors.
