Strabo – “Geography”
“There remain of Europe, first, Macedonia and the parts of Thrace that are contiguous to it and extend as far as Byzantium; secondly, Greece; and thirdly, the islands that are close by. Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis. Then, a little further on, Strabo mentions Cypsela and the Hebrus River, and also describes a sort of parallelogram in which the whole of Macedonia lies.”

<strong>THE</strong> <strong>EARLY</strong> IRON <strong>AGE</strong> IN EUROPE. 437<br />
There is no reason for considering these to be of other than<br />
therefore hesitate to ascribe a Greek<br />
native work, and we may<br />
origin to those first found.<br />
The bosses of shields have been found as at Hallstatt.<br />
That<br />
the Ghisinatz shield was not only furnished with a boss, but<br />
was also circular, is<br />
beyond question. Dr Truhelka has had<br />
the kindness to inform me that from the appearance<br />
left in<br />
the grave <strong>by</strong> the decayed material of the shield and from the<br />
arrangement of the boss and other mountings there can be no<br />
doubt that it was round.<br />
Brooches have been found in large numbers at Glasinatz.<br />
There are more varieties than at Hallstatt, though<br />
all the<br />
Hallstatt types are represented.<br />
The simple safety-pin, commonly called the Peschiera fibula<br />
(Fig. lOG), is met with, as well as all the bow-shaped forms<br />
developed out of it. Those with a stem double-twisted and<br />
thus forming a bilateral spring are <strong>by</strong> far the most numerous,<br />
amounting to not less than 44 per cent, of the whole. This<br />
type was formerly consiflered to be confined to the regions<br />
north of the Alps, but the discoveries at Glasinatz have<br />
completely disproved this opinion.<br />
Some of the fibulat- with a single tM'ist arc allied to ct-rtain<br />
Greek typcs^ Snake-formed fibulae similar to those f(Mind in<br />
the Lake-dwellings of north Italy arc also numerous, and the<br />
type known as the Certosa brooch, to which we shall I'efer<br />
presently,<br />
is also met with.<br />
S))ectaele fibulae and the vai'ietv with foui' spiral<br />
discs are<br />
also T)ot uncommon. licsides these there is a ty])e as yet only<br />
known at (Jlasinatz. It consists of ;in ornamental ])latc of<br />
bronze, genei-ally formed <strong>by</strong> uniting two or four discs, undciwhich<br />
the ])in<br />
is concealed. It seems to have been devclojjed<br />
from the class last nicnrioned <strong>by</strong> merely converting the spii-al<br />
disc into cii'culai' 'i'lie<br />
plates, concentric circles, which are its<br />
prevailing ornameiit. as has been jKiintecl out, may<br />
well be a<br />
survival ot the snii-als in the earlier foi'iii'.<br />
