Comparative, authoritative literature: G. Behrens: Late Roman carved buckles. In: Schumacher–Festschrift. Mainz 1930, pp. 285–295, figs. 3, 5. In 1930, Behrens emphasized that “only on more elaborate pieces were lions or lion-like animals carved in openwork on the edges of the fittings and narrow strap tongues,” as can be seen on the two belt buckles presented here.
