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.”

a few sporadic imported examples. The two peninsulas of Italy<br />
and the Balkan remain. Are we to say that it was produced<br />
among the people of north Italy, or among the Mycenean<br />
people of Greece ?<br />
" En I'etat actuel de nos connaissances (says Mr S. Reinach),<br />
on ne peut metne pas affirmer, que<br />
la fibule soit une invention<br />
des tribus Grecques pendant leur sejour au nord de la presqu'-<br />
ile des Balkans :<br />
peut-etre faudrait-il en chercher I'origine plus<br />
loin vers I'Ouest^"<br />
Undset" and Reinach derive the fibula from a bronze pin<br />
provided with an arrangement for keeping<br />
it fixed in the<br />
garment into which it had been inserted. In central and<br />
northern Europe are found pins of the Bronze Age with a<br />
hole through the broader part,<br />
in which the remains of wire<br />
are sometimes found. In this wire Undset sees the embryo of<br />
the spring of the fibula.<br />
As it is held <strong>by</strong> some that this type of pin has spread from<br />
Cyprus into central Europe, Cyprus has thus been put forward<br />
<strong>by</strong> implication as the birthplace of the brooch. There are<br />
pins from Enkomi'' of gold with "oi'iiamental heads; some have<br />
the centre of the stem widened and pierced with a hole, othei's<br />
ha\e a loop attached to it. The hole was intended for the<br />
insertion of a })ieee of wii'e which was twisted round the<br />
drapery and held it in place." But such a pin as this is<br />
indeed far removed from the ])rinciple of the fibula, the<br />
distinctive feature of which is its<br />
fitted with a hole in which to insert sometliing<br />
spi'ing.<br />
Such ])iiis<br />
were<br />
wliieh would<br />
keep the ])iu<br />
from woi'kiug out of tlie hair or garment,<br />
just, as the axle-ti'ee is titte(l with a linchpin to |)revent.<br />
the wheel tVom coming off. In fact they are analogous lo the<br />
])ins which have theii' p(iin1s fuiiiished with a nut or c;i|i to<br />
keep them securely tixed in the garuient.<br />
But, thei'e is not. the slightest- e\i(|eiice to show that any<br />
foi'in of the ]tiiniit i\'e satety-pni cauie fioiu such a type of pin.<br />
