It’s horrid & cold & barely light out there - so warm yourselves around the glow of this Roman cavalry horse chamfron at @vindolandatrust.bsky.social based on one found in the excavations. Bronze dazzling as gilt & leather smooth as caramel, this is the accessory every little pony wants this Xmas.🎄

Two owner inscriptions can be seen:

above Virtus - PROVINCIALIS
The chamfron is part of a hoard found in the civilian settlement of the fort at Abusina/Eining, Bavaria. Dating 3rd century AD.

Has anyone found any Equestrian related accounts here? I fear there is a dearth of horse related content… (although I’m happy to tackle that in Soring when my Fell pony has her foal! In meantime, here’s my Appaloosa mare Chamfron Chipita when her foal was 24 hours old.

#OTD 14 Sept a #cavalry review called #EquorumProbatio was held in #AncientRome. Horses were paraded before crowds & experts to determine if they were healthy. Horses played a vital role at #Trimontium as a cavalry fort.

By a strange coincidence, a leather #RomanCavalry chamfron from Caerleon was apparently covered in circular studs arranged like this.
@drmichaeljtaylor.bsky.social @bretdevereaux.bsky.social @roelkonijn.bsky.social Look, lorica squamata look-alike: Tlingit armour imitating Spanish scale armour, using Chinese coins (with square hole, for threading) sewn on leather vest. NB next post Med-style armour used by Spanish colonizers
I’m checking out all the ways Chinese coins have been used in British Columbia over time, and this Tlingit vest armour is possibly the coolest! Modelled after Russian and Spanish armour on traditional skin garments. #archaeology
