More you must be exhorted by me to wonder with me, Reader, that ater so many centuries, in a city subject to a good many changes, in which so many foundations of houses and walls have been laid, so many wells, cellars, cisterns and sewers have been dug, something ancient is still held in the womb of the earth that has not come to light earlier.

Kriek, W. Euverman (excavations Bloemers) Printed by: © Museum Het Valkhof ISBN ……………………… V — Foreword In 1990, professor H. Brunsting, by then an octogenarian, asked me to help him publish his excavation results. We published several articles (Brunsting/Steures 1995, 1997 and two others). Then one great subject remained: the late Roman cemetery of the inner city of Nijmegen, called cemetery B in the present study, large parts of which he had excavated from 1947 until 1963. In that time, the centre of Nijmegen was being rebuilt ater the bombardment of 22 February 1944 by allied airplanes. We leafed together through every notebook, excercise-book, portfolio and envelopes full of loose slips of paper. The core of that immense documentation was a series of eleven brown excercise-books of the State Service for Archaeological Research (ROB), in which Brunsting had described all graves with inds and had added small photographs of every object; and three portfolios with photocopies of ink drawings of the potery and all other artefacts, made by Mr H. van Teeseling. Brunsting explained everything that was not immediately clear to me. I began writing the ind catalogue. As I was doing so, Mr Simon Wynia, who had been Brunsting’s assistant at the Free University (VU) of Amsterdam, was of great help by supplying his hand-writen documentation of all graves in ten portfolios, the original notebooks of the ield technicians who had had the daily supervision of the excavations, the original object drawings, and many other documents. In February 1997, a few months before he suddenly died at the age of 95, I took Brunsting to Nijmegen, where I was to give a lecture at the Symposium of Roman Potery at the University of Nijmegen. We took the opportunity of walking through the centre, where he pointed out all sites where he had been excavating. The central announcement of my lecture was: work on the cemetery of the inner city of Nijmegen has been resumed. That same day, Mr H. van Enckevort, then specialist at the ROB for the Roman period, told me that Mr P.A.M. Zoetbrood had discontinued work on the other late Roman cemetery of Nijmegen, called cemetery OO in the present study. The ROB already had reserved money for someone to take over. I was the lucky one. The money was enough for hundred working-days, and so I became an ROB employee for one day per week during two years. Ater that period, the Bureau for Archaeology of the municipality of Nijmegen, where Mr Van Enckevort was now a municipal archaeologist, supplied money for another year of happy Thursdays. Ater that year, I was aged enough to be entitled to one free aternoon per week, and the maker of the time-table at the school where I am a teacher of Latin and Greek was so friendly as to supply a free morning on the same day. A few years later, I was entitled to a complete day of. Work has been steadily going on since then for many years on Thursdays and in long school holidays: renumbering graves, writing the typology, making many lists, translating into English, keeping up with the literature, pasting together the illustrations, asking specialists to write chapters, writing lectures and articles, and interpreting. Many people have helped me.

Stray inds are indicated with stray preceded by B or OO and followed by a number: B stray 1 is the irst of the list of stray inds from the inner city. Subdivision of centuries Centuries (AD unless otherwise stated) are indicated with Roman numerals. Quarter-centuries are indicated with lower case leters a, b, c, d. So IVa means ‘irst quarter of the fourth century, i.e. AD 301-325’, IVb means ‘second quarter of the fourth century, i.e. AD 326-350’, IVcd means ‘second half of the fourth century, i.e. AD 351-400’. In this study, Renate Pirling’s typology of the cemetery of Krefeld is followed. She oten dates ‘middle IV’ and frequently dates by one-third centuries, Dritel. For that reason, capital leters ater Roman numerals are used in a way diferent from the usual one: they indicate one-thirds of centuries. So IVA means ‘irst third of the fourth century, i.e. AD 301-333’; IVAB means ‘irst twothirds of the fourth century, i.e. AD 301-367’. When Pirling dates something to the middle of the fourth century, then it is translated here to IVB, i.e. AD 334-367.

Brunsting† Apart from the Valkhof with immediate surroundings and the bank of the river Waal, the medieval city of Nijmegen does not occupy the site of a Roman town. However, the Roman inds in the inner city are among the earliest made in Nijmegen. The protestant clergyman Johannis Smith, appointed in Nijmegen in 1618, informs us in his book (Smetius 1644) of more than one ind of potery made near his house on the Broerstraat. At the same time, these are the irst ind reports from the Late Roman cemeteries of Nijmegen, to which we dedicate this study. Earlier generations apparently took for granted that Noviomagus and Nijmegen were identical, even if remains of setlement with the belonging rubbish were missing in most of the medieval city. The last time this identiication was made, was in 1906 by H.D.J. van Schevichaven (1827-1918), who was the municipal archivist of Nijmegen from 1897 until his death. He knew the structure of Roman fortresses and saw their main lines (cardo and decumanus) perpetuated in the crossing streets of the Nijmegen city plan. According to him, even two of the by then demolished thirteenth-century city gates had been Roman buildings. Van Schevichaven also failed to appreciate the nature of the Roman inds he knew. This was the result of the still lasting collectionneurs’ mentality of both collectors and museum keepers. They did not work with closed inds and therefore were not able to date most of the objects. It did not occur to them that nearly all inner city inds, as a rule intact potery, came from graves, and that setlement traces were missing. Only his successor, the former mathematics teacher at the grammar school in Rolduc M.P.M. Daniëls (1877-1952; municipal archivist 1919-1942) tried to interpret and date the inds. Diligently collecting from 1911 onwards (Daniëls 1955, 129), he made contacts with the archaeologists J.H. Holwerda and W. Goossens. The later was a school colleague of his, who in his leasure time assisted Holwerda. With the help of the frequently appearing archaeological literature he made himself familiar with the provincial Roman archaeology. Already in his 1921 article on the Valkhof, he presented the solution of the setlement history of Nijmegen and surroundings (Daniëls 1921). De Waele does not yet know of a fourth-century Nijmegen in 1931, and a litle in 1936 (De Waele 1931; 1936). Although there were many stray inds, lack of systematic excavations prevented the Late Roman cemetery of the inner city from being recognized. In 1937, however, Daniëls produced a beter ‘fourth period’ of Roman Nijmegen and recognized the inds from the E half of the inner city as a large Late Roman cemetery (Daniëls 1937; Daniëls 1955, 43 and 226). He produced a distribution map of Holwerda’s inds. The W half of the inner city appeared to be the site of a cremation cemetery of the second and third centuries AD. His ideas were proven right when digging for a new wing of the town hall was started in 1940, just before the outbreak of war. A systematic excavation along the Lange Nieuwstraat proved impossible, but Daniëls managed to coax a mass of various inds, mostly intact potery, from the workmen and their bosses for his beloved Municipal Museum, then in the Mariënburg chapel (Daniëls 1955, 232-236; inds B stray 77-127). Daniëls had proven his long-standing idea that large part of the medieval inner city had not been inhabited in Roman times, but had been a cemetery. Sporadic skeletal inds suggested inhumations, but no inhumation of the kind to be expected in a fourth-century Roman cemetery had been studied in situ yet; grave goods were the only things to go by. Daniëls, being a science man, dared not speak of an inhumation cemetery yet. Ater the 1944 devastations of Nijmegen, there was an opportunity to begin systematic excavations between and under the ruined buildings. The excavations always followed the old cadastral maps: foundations and cellars of ruined and demolished buildings mainly dictated were excavations could be done; so did the thirteenth-century townmoat. Rebuilding ater 1945 altered the street plan in this central area almost completely (cf. Figs. 1 and 3). The Korte Nieuwstraat and the Oude Stadsgracht have completely gone; the already 1 — 2 — Figure 1.1. Excavation between the walls of the Broerkerk, 1950. existing names Grutberg, Pauwelstraat and partly Oude Koningsstraat have been given to streets of a completely diferent layout. The Mariënburg square got completely new limits on the N side. The irst acquaintance did not yet lead to recognition: a trial trench to the S of the Burchtstraat and N of the St Louis schools brought W-E inhumations (i.e. with the heads pointing W) without grave goods to light in October of 1947 (see Appendix 1b for years, trenches and street names). They had about the same orientation as that of the Broerkerk on the other side of the Lange Nieuwstraat. A small Christian cemetery? Daniëls could not ind any indication of a Christian building there in the archives. It was clear from the proiles, though, that the thirteenth-century and later brick buildings did not heed the graves. A setlement stratum with thirteenth-century and later inds was lying undisturbed over a brown humus layer; neither in this humus, nor in the illing of the graves there was any dating ind. Sherds and other arte- facts showed the terrain to be regularly inhabited from the thirteenth century onwards. A few Pingsdorf and globular ware sherds pointed to an earlier period. Badorf potery is all but absent. Firstcentury AD Roman activity on the spot was clear from sherds, coins, postholes, outlets and pits. A irst-century AD sunken road with cart-ruts, globally running from the Mariënburg chapel to the Grotestraat, was also found in these excavations. It is cut by fourth-century graves. The search irst went on in another area, the Kerkegasje, W of the town hall, in 1949. Here also inhumation graves, some thirty, but very diferently oriented, and this time with fourth-century grave goods. Earlier stray inds on the spot had already caused the archaeologists to expect them there. Slowly the conviction grew that the graves found in 1947 belonged to the same cemetery. Stray inds from elsewhere in the E inner city made it grow to unsuspected proportions. In the autumn of 1950 excavations went on both 3 — near the Kerkegasje and the St Louis schools. Trial trenches were made, one E of the Broerkerk, which was then still standing, and one on the spot of the vanished small street Halve Trom, W of the Broerstraat. The later trench indeed brought an inhumation to light (grave B 1). This proved that the cemetery had reached this far W. The ground was disturbed to a great depth here. In 1951 and 1952, the ground on which the medieval Broerkerk and its cloister had stood (demolished in the meantime because of instability ater the 1944 bombardment) was excavated. Also in 1952, when part of the Mariënburg square was lowered to the same level as that of the streets that came out on it (Lange Koningsstraat, Houtmarkt, Oude Stadsgracht), excavations were held there; they went on in 1953. In the same area, in the since then vanished street Grutberg, excavations took place in 1955. In 1956, excavations followed on both sides of the town hall: to the W, a small addition near the former Broerkerk, to the E on a by then empty terrain on the (Lange) Nieuwstraat. In 1957, excavations took place on the E side of the Lange Nieuwstraat, on the Grutberg and on the Pauwelstraat, parallel to it. In 1960 and 1961 a third terrain on the E side of the Lange Nieuwstraat was excavated. In 1963, when again part of the Mariënburg square was lowered, a rescue excavation took place on its S side. When the police headquarters was built there in 1966 and the social services building in 1967, some archaeological supervision took place, without much result for the Late Roman cemetery. As for the numbering of the graves (and other inds): reorganisation appeared necessary and not all grave numbers given during excavation could be maintained. In order to maintain as many as possible, the terrain was divided in four parts, named D, G, LN and M: D Dominican church and cloister (Broerkerk) and surroundings, which include the Kerkegasje and the vanished Kaaskorversgas, between the Lange Nieuwstraat, the vanished Korte Nieuwstraat, Broerstraat and Korte LN G M Burchtstraat with some additions to W and N: Figs. 8-10. Lange Nieuwstraat E side and the terrain further E: Figs. 11-15. Grutberg and surroundings: the area S and SE of area D. The original numbering here was chaotic for three reasons: the irst graves excavated under the name Mariënburg were later redivided over areas G and M; in 1955, continuous numbers were given in two excavations that took place in the same time; as a result, graves went ‘missing’ and artiicial numbers were given in order to give them a place: Figs. 16-17. See under G for Mariënburg and surroundings: Fig. 18. When a second campaign took place in an area and the daily supervisor began again numbering the graves from number 1, this was redressed by adding 100 or 200 to the grave numbers. This was done in the case of the campaigns 1960-1 in the Lange Nieuwstraat and 1963 on the Mariënburg. Had, however, a grave already atracted atention of another archaeologist, both numbers may have appeared in the literature. Thus, LN 46 in an early publication = LN 246 in a later one. (Its deinitive number in this study is B 465.) Not every original ind number represented a grave: also pits and stray inds received a number; not every oblong pit could be identiied as a grave with certainty; some clusters got one number. This caused the irst group of original excavation numbers, D 1-32, to consist of 37 graves. Up to 1963, 587 certain and 30 uncertain graves were found. 177 of these contained grave goods: 61 in area D, 10 in G, 47 in LN, and 58 in M. Complete renumbering took place when this study was being prepared; see the section ‘Renumbering the graves’ in the Chapter 3, Explanatory Notes to the Find Catalogue. Earlier inds in the cemetery When cellars were dug under the town hall, ‘plu- 4 — rima et varia antiquitatis monumenta’ were found, as Smetius heard around 1640 from old people (Smetius 1644, 29-30; 1999, 66). It is not clear whether this took place when the town hall was built in 1554-1555, or in the second half of the 16th century, under the already standing building. Smetius’ words (‘cum cellae foderentur sub curia urbica’) suggest the later possibility. This happened frequently in Nijmegen. Although this part of the city was densely inhabited from the 13th century onwards and even the townmoat was dug through the cemetery, this is the earliest ind report concerning the cemetery that has come to us. Apparently, Smetius was the irst to take an interest in this kind of trivial inds. Before that time, only Latin inscriptions in stone had been preserved - and even these sporadically. Around 1625, and later, new inds had come to light in the cloister of the Broerkerk, i.e. next to the house where Smetius himself had been living since 1618: red and white ‘vases’ of diferent shapes. In 1641, when Petrus Herzog had a cistern dug on the other side of the cloister, three beakers came to light; two came into Smetius’ possession. Undoubtedly, we must think of beakers of Symond’s group 61, the most numerous category of those found in the cemetery. Apparently, they wore no motoes: Smetius would undoubtedly have mentioned them. The year before, the baker Rudolf Jansen had found two beakers when he dug a cellar under his house on the corner of the Lange Burchtstraat and the Lange Nieuwstraat, on the Burchtstraat side. One was red and oblong (terra sigillata?), the other short and black. Many Roman coins had been found, especially on the Mariënburg. Smetius perhaps knew a stone sarcophagus (‘labrum balneare’ = bath tub) from the surroundings of the Barbarossastraat with a coin of Constantius II (Smetius 1644, 34; 1999, 71). One and a half century later, Johan in de Betouw knew a ‘black jug’ with moto DA BIBERE, in the possession of viscount Jacob van Randwijk, from this quarter of the city. He himself possessed a ‘jug’ with moto VIVAS. Both will have been bea- kers, this time with drinking motoes - although jugs with such motoes do occur. The chronicle manuscript of Van Druynen mentions, for the year 1823, a coin of Magnentius (350-353), found on the Kannenmarkt ‘when a cistern was dug next to the house of G. Heuvel’ (Kannenmarkt 7, according to Daniëls 1955, 269) - outside the known area of the cemetery. Under September 1826 he mentions ‘some antiquities’, found when a wall was built near the Jewish cemetery, i.e. on the Mariënburg. None of the inds mentioned so far can be identiied now. Things got beter, when in 1850 a municipal collection was formed through a legacy of Mr Guyot. Already in 1852, when again a cellar was being dug, this time on the Korte Nieuwstraat near the Kerkegasje, new inds came to light on a depth of ‘2½ Dutch ell’, i.e. 2.5 meters. The owner of the house, J.A.J. van den Ult, donated them to the new museum. Apparently, we have a closed grave ind here, in which also a skeleton was found. Since then, new inds reached the Municipal Collection from time to time. The Municipal Museum Commitee saw to it from then on, that ind spots were written down: for instance when the water works were installed in 1879, and the municipal sewerage in 1908. This way, the objects became archaeological material instead of mere curiosities. Here Brunsting’s notes break of. For a further description of the terrain, see the last section of Chapter 3, Assessing the original depths of the graves. The inds mentioned and all later inds that came to light during later non-systematic excavations are catalogued in topographical order in Chapter 4. The leter under which they are mentioned igures on the map of Fig. 3. All objects are now part of the collections of Museum Het Valkhof in Nijmegen. Their inventory numbers are given in Appendices 2a and 2b in the present study. 2 Introduction to Cemetery NijmegenEast (Cemetery OO) P.A.M. Zoetbrood Modern topography The cemetery of Nijmegen-East is also called cemetery Hugo de Grootstraat, OO, or Margriet. These diferent names derive from terrains and periods in which research has taken place, to be treated below, in the section Research history and in Chapter 4 on stray inds. The cemetery lies immediately E of the old inner city of Nijmegen. Its modern limits are the Barbarossastraat on the N, the Jan van Goyenstraat and the Ten Hoetstraat on the S, the Pater Brugmanstraat on the E, and the Dr. Claes Noorduijnstraat on the W. The area is crossed by the Hugo de Grootstraat and Ten Hoetdwarsstraat, both running N-S: see Figs. 2 and 19. Until the dismantling of the fortiications of Nijmegen, completed in 1882, the area had not been built over apart from the fortiications themselves. From the end of the 19th century onwards, the irst streets were laid out, and around 1925 the area was largely built over in its present-day form. The Wilhelmina Hospital, nowadays Nursing-home Margriet, was built in that period. Subsoil and relief The cemetery is lying near the steep N edge of the Nijmegen-Kleve ice-pushed ridge, which rises over the neighbouring Rhine and Waal valley. The subsoil in which the graves have been dug consists of preglacial and then ice-pushed sediments of coarse sand and ine pebbles, between which layers of ine sands and larger pebbles reach the surface. The terrain rises from 36.50 meters above NAP (Normaal Amsterdams Peil: Normal Amsterdam Level, the Dutch ordnance datum) in the W to 39.50 m in the E. The relief was more accidented in Roman times and has been covered with ground let over from the dismantling of the fortiications. This diference is c.70 cm in the Hugo de Grootstraat; on the S side of Nursinghome Margriet it is c.100 cm, on its N c.200 cm, and in the Dr. Claes Noorduijnstraat it falls again to c.40 cm. This covering of the Roman surface meant protection of the archaeological features and possibly also from the fury of treasurehunters around 1903, which did hit the terrain E of the Hugo de Grootstraat. Proile of the subsoil A N-S proile as seen during the excavations 1979-1983 near Nursing-home Margriet, along the E section of excavation trenches 209-204203-202-201A and the W section of trenches 197-194-192-189-184-184A, not reproduced in this study, showed the following structure of the subsoil. The surface is at c.39.00 meters above NAP in the N and 38.00 in the S. The top 70-200 cm consists of ground brought up in recent times ater the dismantling of the fortiications and before the houses and the hospital were built. The old surface is a hard black layer, c.5-10 cm thick, at 38.20 meters above NAP in the N, and at 36.10 in the S. The top of the virgin soil is at 37.20 in the N, and 35.80 in the S. The group of layers in between, some 100 cm thick in the N and some 30 cm in the S, shows a clear division in two in its N part, and a faint one in the S, from trench 197 southwards. The lower half of this group of layers consists of dirty black soil in which pits were dug, illed with Flavian and second-century material. This dirty black soil covers the still darker Claudian-Neronian top illing of an Augustan-Tiberian dry moat. Pre-Flavian features have a generally clean yellowish brown illing, which contrasts sharply to the dirty black Flavian layer on top of it. In its turn, the Flavian layer contrasts to the dirty brown layer on top of it, from which the fourth-century graves were dug. Situation in the Roman period (Fig. 20) Large-scale excavations which have taken place in Nijmegen since 1947 make it possible to sketch a rough image of the situation of the cemetery in the Roman period. Although fourthcentury topography takes pride of place, a sketch of the preceding periods is necessary. Not only were features from those preceding periods found during the excavations of the cemetery, some of them have taken part in forming the 5 — 6 — fourth-century landscape: see Fig. 20. Period Ia: 12 BC or earlier- AD 25 Most typical of the features from this period are the V-shaped dry ditch with double ditch on both sides of a rampart behind it, part of the small auxiliary fortress of the Trajanusplein. Parts of this fortress came unexpectedly to light during the excavations near Nursing-home Margriet: its E limit appeared to reach farther E than reconstructed in Noviomagus (1979, 24, ig. 16.5; corrected in Lauwerier 1988, 44-5, ig.6). Its original reconstruction, however, does correspond to irregularities in the double ditch found during the 1979-1983 excavations. There may have been a second phase in the layout of the auxiliary fortress. The ditches are shown in Fig. 20 as bending parallel dark bands. During excavations on the Trajanusplein and in the Hugo de Grootstraat the side ditches were found of an E-W road, which runs both through the actually excavated W gate and the originally reconstructed E gate of the fortiication (Fig. 20). During the excavations of the cemetery near Nursing-home Margriet, a ditch was found which was interpreted as the S side ditch of this road, and as such it appeared in summaries of the periods (Willems 1986, ig. 66; Lauwerier 1988, ig. 6, 7). Some pits in the excavation area belong to this same period. Period Ib-c: AD 25-70 Finds from the top illing of the aforesaid V-shaped ditch certainly belong to this period, and possibly some features that cannot satisfactorily be dated. Some graves in the Hugo de Grootstraat were possibly already dug in the preceding period, but others certainly date to this one. They belong to the irst-century cemetery of Museum Kamstraat. A V-shaped ditch, certainly pre-Flavian and possibly dating to this or the preceding period, was found in the terrain S of Nursing-home Margriet (Fig. 20). Its layout and shape correspond well with the fossa punica interpreted by Bogaers as the possible limit of Oppidum Batavorum (Noviomagus 1979, 32-3, Fig. 23.5). In later maps it is indeed taken as the limit of the early Roman setlement around the Valkhof, but the gate actually found is not indicated on them (Willems 1986, ig. 66; Lauwerier 1988, ig. 7). Apart from handmade sherds of late Iron Age or early Roman date, the clean illing contained no artefacts. As Flavian rubbish pits cut the ditch, its pre-Flavian date is certain. Its layout, parallel to the ditch of the auxiliary fortress, shows there is a connection, but its relative chronology could not be established. The other inds from this period come from a few rubbish pits and from the top illing of the ditch of the auxiliary fortress. They may be ascribed to occupation found farther W around Trajanusplein and Valkhof (Noviomagus 1979, Fig. 23.3; Willems 1986, Fig. 66, site 403; Lauwerier 1988, Fig. 7A). Period Id-IIa: AD 70 - early second century As opposed to the preceding period, Flavian times are well represented on the terrain of the Late Roman cemetery. The N half of the excavation area contained Flavian wells or cisterns and rubbish pits in which many iron slags were found. Both wells and rubbish pits are indications of industrial activity in the SW part of the canabae legionis (Noviomagus 1979, ab. 32.2; Willems 1986, ig.77, site 407; Lauwerier 1988, ig. 10.C.). The ind of a rectangular cellar built of limestone and tufa, c.7.50x4.50 and 1.80 meter deep represents the only remains of buildings. Parallel NW-SE ditches found on the terrain of the Late Roman cemetery and in the Dr. Claes Noorduijnstraat possibly indicate a road. Period IV: Late Roman Fourth-century features are limited to inhumations and related structures. The irstcentury road seems to have inluenced the topography of the cemetery. The graves in the Hugo de Grootstraat are all lying S of this road (Fig. 20). The same seems to be the case with the ditch found in the excavations around Nursing- 7 — home Margriet, interpreted as the S road ditch, but one grave was found immediately N of this ditch. This may mean no more than that a former ditch no longer functioned: several parallel ditches of probably diferent dates were found in the Hugo de Grootstraat. No limiting features were found on the W and S sides of the cemetery. Cemetery OO is one of three large elements of Late Roman topography of Nijmegen. The other two are cemetry B in the inner city and the Valkhof fortress (Figs. 1 and 22). Period V: post-Roman Apart from 20th-century disturbances, the only post-Roman feature is a town moat, part of the post-medieval fortiications of Nijmegen. The dismantling of the fortiications led to heightening the surface level c.1-2 meter above that of the Late Roman period. Research history The earliest reports of inds in the Late Roman cemetery of Nijmegen-East are from the beginning of the 20th century, and are the direct result of road and house building in this area. Especially in the area between Hugo de Grootstraat and Eleonorastraat (now Museum Kamstraat), many inds came to light due to ‘the digging fury of street urchins’ (Weve 1903, 196; Daniëls 1955, 326) and to explorations ordered by the Nijmegen collectionneur G.M. Kam (Noviomagus 1979, 34, 65; Stuart 1977, 6-8). Kam invented the code OO for this cemetery, a code that is also used in the present study; he called the lower, irst-century cemetery on the same plot, cemetery O. There was one regular excavation then, by Leydekkers in grave group CC (Fig. 2; part of cemetery CC-O-E-S, the subject of Stuart 1977), the inds of which were published in Vermeulen 1932 (Stuart 1977, 6, n. 19). Part of the inds ended up in Museum Kam, part in the Leiden National Museum of Antiquities, but many inds went lost (Stuart 1977, 6-8). The irst archaeological excavations took place in 1975, in the Hugo de Grootstraat, which was then being renovated. Nineteen Late Roman graves and several early Roman ones were found under the road: see Appendix 1b. This excavation led to the name sometimes used: the cemetery of the Hugo de Grootstraat. Renovation of the former Wilhelmina Hospital, nowadays Nursing-home Margriet, on the Dr. Claes Noorduijnstraat, gave the opportunity for large-scale excavations. Between 1979 and 1983, large part of the terrain between Barbarossastraat, Dr. Claes Noorduynstraat, Ten Hoetstraat and the Hugo de Grootstraat was excavated (JROB 1979, 49; 1980, 34-5; 1981, 30-1; 1982, 33-4; 1983, 32-3). The irst fourth-century graves were found in 1980. That year and the two years ater, the terrain was excavated from S to N, up to the Barbarossastraat. Ater the demolition of the mortuaries of the Nursing-home in 1982, the W extension to the Dr. Claes Noorduijnstraat could be added to the N-S section (trenches 214-217). The work was rounded of with the excavation of a strip next to the E facade of the building (trench 219). 325 graves were recognized and excavated completely, or, on the excavation limits, partly. The total number of recognized graves, inclusive of those in the Hugo de Grootstraat, then was 344. In 2004, mr H. van Enckevort, municipal archaeologist of Nijmegen, studied the records of the Margriet excavations. His analysis yielded 145 unrecognized graves, bringing the total of the excavated graves in cemetery OO to 489. Work was done under scientiic supervision of J.H.F. Bloemers up to 1982, and of W.J.H. Willems in 1983. Daily technical supervision was with A. Buisman in the years 1980-1981, and with K. Greving in the other years. The excavations were made possible by the kind cooperation of the Board of Nursing-home Margriet and workmen of Unemployment Relief Works of Nijmegen and surroundings. Ways of excavating The methods of excavating and registration in a project of several years are generally not uniform. Time and workpower available, external 8 — circumstances such as the weather, and the search for answers to new questions leave their marks. These changes are clearly visible in the detailed plans of the graves in the Hugo de Grootstraat, the original grave numbers 1-189, and 191-327 (see Appendix 1b for these grave numbers), and in the plans of the graves recognized later during analysis of the excavation records. The original grave numbers 190 and 222 were removed from the records: 190 was a niche belonging to the grave with original number 238 (now OO 168); original numbers 222 and 245 were given to two halves of the same grave in diferent excavation trenches (now OO 82). The topsoil was always removed mechanically: from 70 cm in the Hugo de Grootstraat up to 200 cm near the Nursing-home. The few trials to make the irst level on the top of the original surface did not give results that could be interpreted. For that reason, the irst excavation level was made at the top of the virgin soil. Most of the graves were then immediately visible as dark brown to black discolorations in a yellow matrix. Alas, the mechanical diggers in many cases irretrievably removed the tops of ceramic grave goods. Ater drawing the irst level to scale 1:50, the graves and their immediate surroundings were then deepened with a spade that was used as a plane, down to the level where details of the grave became clearly visible. In many cases, this was the irst clear outline of the wooden coin, in some cases skeletal remains and grave goods. Ater drawing this second level the grave was deepened further, mostly with a spade, but near grave goods and skeletal remains with a trowel or iner tools. The last 5-10 cm of the illing were removed with a trowel in those cases that skeletal remains and/or grave goods had been found. Especially in 1982 and 1983, the trowel was used much more frequently than before. The loose sandy illing of the graves, themselves lying in a matrix of coarse sand, made the use of the quadrant method impossible. Moreover, during several trials the vertical discolorations of walls of the coins appeared to be so vague, that it was preferred to try to recognize them in the horizontal plane instead of making vertical sections. In the Hugo de Grootstraat, time pressure caused the graves to be excavated in a hurry, and the data were drawn on the 1:50 scale. Details of coins and skeletal material are generally missing there, and the quality of documentation must be called poor. As against the usual rescue excavations under time pressure in Nijmegen, the excavations around Nursing-home Margriet could be done with relative ease. The result is a beter documentation of the graves. It must, however, be remarked that atention was too much focussed on skeletal material in the irst 189 graves excavated. Detail drawings to the scale 1:20 were deemed suicient. As from the grave with original number 191, atention was much more paid to aspects of the inhumations, especially coin construction. It was then tried to improve documentation by drawing to a scale 1:10, and the position of every single nail of the coin was not only noted down in the horizontal plane, as it had been done before, but also in the vertical section. And in cases where the drawing did not make things clear immediately, the direction of the nail (head/point) was also noted down. These data formed the basis for longitudinal and transverse sections of the coins. In order to support and if needed correct this three-dimensional registration, inked drawings with reconstructed sections were made on the basis of the ield drawings in one or two days, or so it was tried. Corrections and additions repeatedly appeared to be possible during discussions between scientiic and technical staf. The result of this intensive method appears from the drawings of many graves. Mr K. Greving but above all technical draughtsman Mr A.M. Nijs have done their utmost. The paragraph on coins in Chapter 13 is based on their work. 3 Explanatory notes to the ind catalogue Graves Apart from a few cremation graves, enumerated at the end of this section, all graves are inhumations. Coin traces were usually clearly visible during excavation and oten nails were found, though they were not counted in most cases (see the section on nails in Chapter 13). The deceased were always lying supine, sometimes with arms folded. The orientations of the graves and, where there was a diference, of the coins are given in degrees and give the direction in which the head was pointing: N is 0°, E is 90°, S is 180°, and W is 270°. However, the sandy soil of Nijmegen being a very acid matrix, skeleton and coin have disappeared without a trace in many cases: there, two possible directions of the grave are given. These instances were excluded from analysis of the orientation of the graves. The ive or six cremation graves are B 5, B 106, B 140, B 182?, OO 131, and OO 308. Measurements Altitude measurements of grave botoms and niches are given in meters above NAP. Sometimes the altitude measurements could only be taken relatively, in relation to street or excavation level; where possible, these have been calculated in NAP-altitudes aterwards. All other measurements are given in cm, the abbreviation cm being omited; h = height, l = length, d = diameter, w = width. Where no measurements are given, these were absent from the documentations on which this catalogue is based and the objects themselves could not be found in the museum depot. When a grave had been cut through by another grave or a later disturbance, its measurements are given with the sign >, e.g. grave >65x60, coin trace >50x>45. Artefacts in the graves are numbered in typological order 1, 2, 3.. Dates are AD unless otherwise stated. Figures As good as all artefacts found during the 19471963 excavations in cemetery B led by H. Brunsting were drawn by mr H. van Teeseling in the years 1960-1970. He also drew a selection of the stray inds from both cemeteries B and OO. However, very many artefacts found during the 1976-1983 excavations led by J.H.F. Bloemers were not drawn: of his and W.J.H. Willems’ excavations of cemetery B, hardly anything was drawn; frequent potery types from cemetery OO were not drawn. I have inspected and measured all inds by Bloemers and Willems, and decided to try to show everything, in order to do justice to the way such a catalogue is used: whoever is looking for parallels for his own material, browses through the drawings and only starts reading where he sees a similar complex. However, though I drew many potery and glass vessels, there was time nor money to make all new drawings required. This last batch of object drawings were made by Mikko Kriek and Wim Euverman only when the present study was undergoing its inal redaction. It could not be prevented that older and newer drawings, of diferent hands and styles, igure side by side. Drawings in doted lines indicate that the object does igure in the documentations but could not be drawn, usually, in the case of glass vessels, because it had gone completely lost. Plans of graves were made for Brunsting’s excavations in order to give an illustrative selection of graves with grave goods. Plans and sections of selected graves in Bloemers’ excavations in cemetery OO were made for quite a diferent reason in the 1980’s: in order to study the construction of the coins by documenting the positions of the nails. In a few cases, they do not even show the grave goods found (OO 83, OO 134, OO 212). There is of course no unity of style between these two groups of drawings of graves. Scales Scales of the maps difer and are indicated by scale bars in meters. The scale for graves and sarcophagi is 1:40. Perspective drawings of brick and sketches made in doted lines are not to scale. Potery and glass vessels and chests are shown to the scale 1:4. All other objects are shown 1:2. 9 — 10 — Beads In 2006, when the manuscript of the present study was in its inal stages, Mrs Wil van Bommel-van der Sluijs asked permission to use the descriptions of beads in ind catalogue and typology for her Nijmegen University MA thesis on Roman and Germanic beads in the Netherlands (Sluijs 2007). She studied them all. The reader can now proit by her unpublished study via the present ind catalogue and typology. Her study shows that Late Roman Nijmegen is on the border of two beads areas: the Roman and the Germanic ones. For the Roman one, the typology of Riha (1990, referred to as Riha) is followed, for the Germanic, Tempelmann-Maczynska (1985, referred to as TM), Siegmann (2001-3, referred to with her type preix PE) and Koch (1977, 1987, 1997, referred to as Koch). Whenever a bead is not exactly like the type cited, the type number gets the extension Var. Their material is glass, unless stated otherwise. The height of a bead is the length of its threadhole. Renumbering the graves The original numbering of the graves relected the order in which they were found, and showed large lacunas. That way, the graves had no continuous numbers on the map, and as a consequence the map was not easy to be read. All graves have therefore been renumbered. A concordance of original and new grave numbers is found in Appendices 1a and 1b; Appendices 2a and 2b do the same for object numbers. In this study, the maps of both cemeteries are organised like pages of text: the graves are numbered in rows from west to east (= let to right) and, like the lines of a text, these rows must be read from the top of the map down. This was done with the help of a grid, not shown on the maps. The higher the grave number, the lower down on the map it is. In two cases, however, the map became clearer by numbering according to excavation areas, i.e. contiguous excavation trenches. This is the case on the maps of area M (Fig. 18, graves B 674-828) and of the entire cemetery OO, where irst the main area in the west was numbered, and then the trench in the Hugo de Grootstraat in the east. First and second-century coins and ibulae: intrusions? It has been suggested to me that the 33 irst and second-century coins were not intentionally put in the fourth-century graves, but that they are intrusions: Nijmegen had been Roman for more than three centuries when the Late Roman cemeteries came into being, and the ground was litered with coins, so it was said. So, the reasoning went, they got into the graves unintentionally when the illing was thrown in. Admitedly, the coin loss in the irst century on the Kops Plateau, part of the Nijmegen ice-pushed ridge to the east of the Valkhof, was large enough to ill a bulky study by dr J.P. van der Vin (2002). But there is no question of unintentional intruding of early coins in later traces there. I have three reasons for not following the suggestion. Firstly, in the following sixteen cases, there can be no doubt that a irst or second-century coin was put in the grave intentionally: B 14.5 was in the mouth; B 59.9 was on the middle of the body; B 67.5 was in the coin near the foot-end; B 86.6 was near the let elbow, as though it had been held in the right hand; B 140.6 was part of a carefully laid out row of objects; B 227.1 was on the pelvis; B 298.1-6 belong to a purse with 48 other coins the lady needed on her journey to the underworld; B 460.1 was near the right foot; B 486.2 was only 5 cm above the botom of the coin; B 522.1 was between the feet; B 465.10 was in the mouth. Secondly, we publish a long series of excavations, conducted between 1947 and 1983. There is only one early coin mentioned in the ind reports as a stray ind from excavations, B stray 316. There should have been dozens if unintentional intrusion took place so oten, even if we take into account that there were no metal detectors when Brunsting’s excavations took place. Thirdly, Gorecki (1975, 229-230), who studied coins in inhumations in a large area, sees coins 11 — in the illing time and again and interprets them as farewell coins thrown in during the illing of the grave. That picture is too beautiful not to be believed. Especially old coins are very suitable to be thrown in, as they are part of a rite de passage into a timeless state and not of a payment (cf. Hiddink 2003, 199). Aarts (2002) made it even the title of his thesis: Coins or money? A similar presence of many earlier Roman ibulae is for the same reasons considered here not to be an unintentional intrusion, but an intentional farewell git thrown in during the illing of the grave, expressing the bond between the living and the dead. Assessing the dates of the graves in real years The codes used in the chapter on typology for quarter and one-thirds of centuries are translated into real years here. In the case of quarter centuries: IVa = AD 301-325; IVb = 326-350; IVc = 351-375; IVd = 376-400; in the case of one-thirds of centuries, allowing for the Dritel with which German archaeologists frequently reckon, and in the deviating code used in this study: IVA = AD 301-333; IVB = 334-367; IVC = 368-400. Assessing the dates of the graves in real years has been done in several rounds. First round: artefact dates, usually consisting of both a terminus post quem and a terminus ante quem. If a grave contained one artefact (as long as this is not a coin: see below), the artefact date of the grave is equal to the period in which the type present is dated in the chapter on typology, i.e. by study of the literature. If a grave contained at least two artefacts, its artefact date is the overlap of the periods of use of those types. If no overlap can be found, there are two possibilities. Firstly, an old artefact, for instance a irst-century coin, was also put into the grave. The artefact date of the grave then is equal to the overlap of the later artefacts indicated above. Secondly, if there is no overlap to be found for fourth- or ith-century artefacts in the grave, then the date of a type is not correct yet and must be adjusted. Disappointingly many graves get the broad artefact dates of AD 301-350 or AD 301-367. One kind of artefacts plays a special role here: the many decorated dark coloured beakers and other shapes from Trier belonging to Künzl’s decoration group V, dated by her to 300/310-355 (Künzl 1997, 69). They have been dated here by the production time to AD 300-355, although they may have been deposited several years after AD 355. Second round: coin dates. Since the basic study of Carson, Hill and Kent (1960), the study of fourthcentury coins no longer works with emperors’ reigns, but in periods. New dynasties and coin reforms cause eight periods of circulation, ater each of which the old coins are abolished or anyway disappear from circulation, and new ones appear. These eight periods are given in Table 1. Table 1: Coin periods in the fourth century Period 1 298-307 Period 2 307-318 Period 3 318-330 Period 4 330-341 Period 5 341-348 Period 6 348-364 Period 7 364-378 Period 8 378-402 Do the fourth-century coins of the Nijmegen cemeteries obey the laws of this periodisation? Partially. There are as few as thirteen graves with more than one fourth-century coin. In six cases, the coin groups do obey the periodisation, in seven they do not: see Table 2, where they are presented in the order of the coin periods. In six cases, only one period is represented: cases 3, 4, 6, 7, 10 and 12. Also in six cases, coins of the preceding period are present with those of the subsequent one: cases 1, 2, 5, 8, 9 and 11. Apparently, coins could stay on for one other period. Number 13 is, as it should be, the odd one out, where coins of three periods and more than for- 12 — Table 2.1: Fourth-century coin groups (in period order) in thirteen graves Case Grave 1 B 180 2 B 298 N Period 1 1 1 2 3 1 39 2 3 B 620 6 2 4 B 64 9 4 5 OO 288 2 4 1 4-5 6 OO 338 29 4 7 OO 371 2 4 8 OO 199 3 4 2 5 9 OO 277 1 4 1 5 10 OO 242 2 6 11 B 778 2 6 3 7 12 B 787 4 7 13 OO 29 2 4 5 7 1 8 ty years apart occur together. There may have been a sentimental reason for keeping two old coins, such as year of birth of the deceased. This coin group, which otherwise does behave like cases 1, 2, 5, 8, 9, and 11, is not taken into account in the following. This state of afairs has led to a casuistic approach to the dating of graves by coins in this study, with four possibilities. Firstly, where only one period is represented by more than one coin in the above cases 3, 4, 6, 7, 10 and 12, the evidence is not stretched and the grave is dated between the earliest minting date of its latest coin and the end of the coin period concerned. Secondly, where two subsequent periods are represented, in the above cases 1, 2, 5, 8, 9 and 11, something similar has been done: from the earliest minting date of its latest coin to the end of the second period represented (otherwise, we would stretch the evidence that shows that survival of coins during one period into the next is possible, and we would make those of the irst period represented survive during two periods). Thirdly, in all cases not in Table 2.1, we deal with one fourth-century coin per grave. As we now know that coins in Nijmegen could stay on for another period, coin dates for graves with one coin of periods 1-7 run from the earliest minting date of the coin until the end of the subsequent coin period. This approach, however, does not work for late third-century coins, as appears from the case of grave OO 271: a coin of Probus (276-282) in that grave, which is dated by the other artefacts to AD 325-350. Perhaps, the coin was used not as money in the usual sense, but as an old coin, appropriate for the transition into another realm. Probus’ name (‘the good man’) may have inluenced the choice of this coin. Fourthly and inally, graves with one coin from period 8 get a coin date from the earliest minting date of the coin up to the end, AD 402. The resulting coin dates of the graves with fourth-century coins are given in Table 2.2. In one case where many coins were found, grave B 298, the coins give a more or less precise terminus ad quem: nine of its coins are dated AD 313-317, and one only 319. This makes the terminus ad quem for this grave AD 319 or 320, allowing for one year in which the coin reached Nijmegen. And the lady in B 298, identiied as a Sabazios worshipper from Cologne, was not the only prominent Nijmegen lady to pass away in those years. The sarcophagus of the Grutberg, B 620, containing a rich young lady of eight years old at the most, and famous for her tambourine sticks, is dated to AD 317-318 by this approach. Third round: stratigraphical dates. Graves without artefacts, cuting, or cut by, other graves that were dated in the irst and second rounds, get a derived 13 — Table 2.2: Coin dates of all graves (in catalogue order) with fourth-century coins.

An earlier grave cut by another one that has an artefact date of AD 323-350 may have existed (long) before AD 323 and it cannot be later than AD 350, so it gets a stratigraphical date of AD ?-350 here. A later grave cuting one with an artefact date of AD 323-350 only has its terminus post quem within this period, which may be as early as AD 323; as it has no terminus ante quem, its stratigraphical date is given here as AD 323-?. Stratigraphical dates in real years are given in the catalogue only when they provide new information on the date of the grave, not already known from the artefact date. Most stratigraphical dates are unspectacular. The following ones are frequent: AD 301-?, ?-350 and ?-367, being the beginning of the century, the end of the second quarter and the second one-third, respectively. Dating hitherto undated types of dress accessories Finally, dates of hitherto undated types of dress accessories were derived from the dates of the graves they were found in: drawing up a list of dates of the graves and taking the overlap as the date of the type. In graves where they were the only artefact found, this led in turn to dating the grave. Assessing the original depths of the graves In order to assess the original depth of the graves, we must reconstruct the Roman ield level in relation to that of the present-day street. Like the cemetery Nijmegen-East (OO), the cemetery of the Inner City is situated on terrain gently sloping down from the edge of the Nijmegen ice-pushed ridge. The north side of the Valkhof, where the Roman camp was whose inhabitants and dependents used the cemetery, is part of the steep slope of this ridge. It overlooks a bend in the river Waal. Today, the terrain slopes up from west to east (where the Valkhof is), and down from north to south: from 29.80 m +NAP near the street side of the city hall in the north of area D, to 27.07 in the south of area LN, and upwards again to 30.50 m around the Mariënburg chapel in southeast area M, and westwards from that chapel down again to 28.30 m, whereas southwards it stays in the 29 metres. Below, the street level above any grave is either taken to be in proportion with the nearest two values recorded, or the same as the value taken immediately at its edge. For cemetery B, the data for the Roman ield level are few and far between. In the south of area LN, graves B 459 and B 462 were in proile seen to have been dug from a Roman ield level at 26.30 m +NAP, i.e. c.0.77 m under the present-day street level. In area LN, a Roman surface was noted in section drawing C-D (Fig. 14) at heights between 28.10 and 28.30 +NAP, i.e. c.0.80 m under presentday street level in its west end, where the two graves B 308 and B 313 are. In the same area LN, the section drawing A-B without graves (Fig. 14) shows a Roman ield level at 28.31 +NAP, c.1.00 m under present-day street level. Still in area LN, more to the east, the Roman ield level in section O-P (Fig. 14) is at c.29.50 +NAP, i.e. c.1.80 m under present-day street level; this section, however, shows no graves. These few data seem to lead to a Roman ield level at 0.77-0.80 m under present-day street level in sections that actually have graves. For the sake of ease this is rounded of at 0.80 m; or, as all measurements (other than NAP heights) in this study are given in centimeters, at 80 cm under street level. So the grave depths below are calculated by subtracting the botom level of the grave from its Roman NAP surface, taken to be 80 cm under the present-day street level. This is of course a rough-and-ready way of assessing, and it may lead to absurd results. The reconstructed level of the surface may end up lower than the recorded level at the botom of the grave. The depth is indicated with a question mark there. In the case of Bloemers’ excavations, executed in several planes, the recorded highest plane in which the grave was observed gives its value to NAP surface when it is higher than the reconstructed surface. In short: whichever of the two NAP top levels was highest was selected. 15 — Many NAP heights, be it street level, Roman ground level, top or botom level of a grave, were not recorded during excavation. Where the bottom level of the grave was not recorded, no attempt at establishing its depth has been made. Anyway, depth appeared not to be correlated with any meaningful factor. 16 — 4 Catalogue of the stray inds The Late Roman cemeteries of Nijmegen are buried under the modern town: cemetery Β (Nijmegen-Inner City) under the medieval centre, cemetery OO (Nijmegen-East) under a late nineteenth/ early twentieth-century quarter one kilometer E of the centre. Their locations resulted in numerous stray inds. As these stray inds were made before the excavations, their catalogue comes irst. There are no earlier ind reports than the 1640s, even though the late medieval town-moat was dug through the cemetery B of Nijmegen-Inner City. The position of this old town-moat was still indicated by the now vanished street name Oude Stadsgracht when the excavations published in this study started: see Figs. 3 and 16. Part of the adjoining medieval town wall with an inner butress is visible on Fig. 16 near graves B 617, B 619, B 621 and B 629. A possible collection of inds, made when this medieval town-moat was dug, was a large number of ‘Roman urns’, all without bottom, built into the apparently medieval wall of the atic of the house at Lange Burchtstraat 14 (fourth building E of the Lange Nieuwstraat, demolished 1912: see ater B stray 132). Interest for Roman inds in Nijmegen started in the 1640s, due to the work of the protestant clergyman Johannes Smetius (Smetius 1644). He and later students of Roman Nijmegen up to the nineteenth century are cited below in section A of this chapter. Stray inds are important for four reasons. 1 They indicate the extent and limits of the cemeteries. 2 They can be used in the study of the frequency of types. 3 They comprise rare types not (yet) found in regular excavations. 4 They contribute to our knowledge of the history of archaeology in Nijmegen. Since the beginning of the twentieth century, when stray inds began to turn up en masse, the Nijmegen Roman cemeteries on the Hunerberg and further east have been indicated with capital leters, given by the Nijmegen collector of antiquities Gerard Marius Kam (1836-1922): CC, E, OH, KKH, O, OO, R, RK and S (Fig. 2; Daniëls 1955, 309; Stuart 1963, 1; Stuart 1977, 3-5). O is part of the irst-century cemetery CC-E-O-S, OO the Late Roman cemetery identiied under the same building block as O, between the Hugo de Grootstraat in the W, the Jan van Goyenstraat in the S, the Pater Brugmanstraat in the E, and the Barbarossastraat in the N (Fig. 19). In this study, we perpetuate this tradition by indicating the entire cemetery Nijmegen-East with OO (being also the irst leters of Dutch oost = east), and the cemetery of Nijmegen-Inner City with B (Dutch binnenstad = inner city). The stray inds are called B stray and OO stray. As for cemetery B of the inner city, ive groups of stray inds are distinguished here, numbered A-E. A Seventeenth to early nineteenth-century inds; inds not surviving or not to be identiied: numbers B stray I-XII. B Nineteenth and twentieth century, surviving stray inds per site: numbers B stray 1-227. C Nineteenth and twentieth century, surviving stray inds where the ind-spot is not known with precision: numbers B stray 228-271. D Possibly earlier Roman inds from the area of the Late Roman cemetery: numbers B stray 272295. E Stray inds of Roman and Frankish times from the excavation trenches: numbers B stray 296-317. Stray inds from cemetery Nijmegen-East have been reported between 1903, when there was a digging fury in the terrain OO (see below) and 1963, when there were building activities in the Hugo de Grootstraat. They are numbered OO stray 1-313. Late Roman stray inds of complete potery vessels from other sites in Nijmegen, apparently from Late Roman graves, are numbered Remainder stray 1-21, abbreviated Rem. whenever the layout of the page requires it. As opposed to the inds of the excavations, it has not been the intention to draw every artefact of this part of the ind catalogue, but all existing drawings have been reproduced. 17 — CEMETERY B A Seventeenth to early nineteenth-century inds; inds not preserved or not to be identiied Smetius, Oppidum Batavorum, Amsterdam 1644, 29-30 = (Dutch translation) Nijmegen 1999, 66 In ambulacro sacrae Praedicatorum, quam vocant, aedi contiguo, & vicinâ, quam habito domo, variarum formarum vasa rubicantia simul & alba, ante annos viginti, & non ita multos hîc refossa.

Translation of this text with inserted bold Roman numerals in order to enumerate the inds: I Twenty years years ago and more recently, reddish and white beakers of various shapes were dug up in the cloister of the Dominican church [Broerkerk; see Fig. 8], in the adjacent building and the one next to it, the house I live in. II Very recently, in the year 1641, Peter Hertzog dug up three beakers (two now in my possession), when he was making a cistern in his house in the opposite part of the same cloister. III I heard from old men that very many and various ancient objects were found when cellars were being dug under the town hall. IV In a similar way, the baker Rudolf Jansen found two ancient beakers, one long and red, the other shorter and blackish; this happened in October 1640, in the house on the corner of the Nieuwstraat, opposite the town hall, where the street leads to the castle [Burchtstraat], when he was digging a cellar in order to build an oven with permission of the authorities. V Coins are also found here in various places. Recently, the printer Nicolaas van Hervelt gave me several, found in his garden on the Mariënburg; and another one from an adjacent garden was given to me by Johan van Broeckhuijsen, secretary of the Arsenal. In de Betouw (1785, 1797 and 1805/1806) repeats these ind reports. The following ones are of later date. VI Found near the castle: a small black ‘jug [kruikje]’ with the moto DA BIBERE, in possession of viscount Jacob van Randwijck. (Cannegieter 1758, 243; In de Betouw 1805/1806, 15-6). VII Cannegieter (1758, 243) also reports a ‘chalice’ in the possession of Everard Heker with MITEME, interpreted by In de Betouw as MITE MERVM. VIII Small ‘jug [kruikje]’ with moto VIVAS, in possession of In de Betouw (In de Betouw 1805/1806, 16). IX The moto MISCEMI given by Byvanck with Nijmegen as provenance will also have been found in the cemetery of the inner city: if the moto was complete, the vessel probably also was (Byvanck 1931-1947, II, 147, no. 223 = CIL XIII 10018; the other seven motoes there are already listed here). X The Nijmegen chronicle manuscript of Van Druijnen (n.d., 27) notes for the year 1823: a coin of Magnentius (350-353) found with XI a blackish terracota lamp, found on the Kannenmarkt (number of the house 7, according to Daniëls (1955, 269)). XII The same chronicle, for the year 1826 (Van Druijnen n.d., 41), reports the ind of ‘some antiquities’ when a wall was built near the Jewish cemetery on the Mariënburg.

The sites are indicated a-z and aa-gg on the map. The old ind reports I-XII of part A are, where possible, repeated here pro memoria. Events that led to digging on a large scale in the area of the cemetery, before the systematic archaeological excavations: 1879 construction of waterworks; 1907/1908 construction of general sewerage; 1933 construction of a storehouse for the department store of Van den Borg to the S of the Broerkerk; 1940 enlargement of the town hall; and 22 February 1944 bombardment by allied airplanes, which, on their way back from a planned bombardment on Gotha cancelled because of mist there. The construction of waterworks led in 1879 to inds in Korte and Lange Burchtstraat, Lange Nieuwstraat and Grutberg. The construction of general sewerage in 1907/1908, to inds in Lange Burchtstraat, Lange and Korte Nieuwstraat, Houtmarkt, Pauwelstraat and Ziekerstraat. The construction of the depot of Van den Borg in 1933, to inds in the Broerstraat and the (now vanished) alley Kaaskorversgas, which ran along the S side of the Broerkerk (plan in Daniëls 1955, 231, ig. 90). The enlargement of the town hall in 1940 (indicated consequently as ‘new construction’) brought to light the largest group of inds so far, in the Korte and Lange Nieuwstraat. The devastation of the bombardment of 1944 was the immediate cause of the excavations that began in 1947, but did not result in many inds dur- Broerstaat 19-21, N of the Broerkerk, June 5th, 1928 (Daniëls 1955, 236-239, ig. 97) 1 East Germanic-Sarmatian sheet ibula (‘Blechibula’), l 8.2; fragment of a second one (Van Buchem 1941, nos 1415, 1416, Pl.

Translation: In the second region on the southside [Kelkensbos, to the W of the Valkhof], when they were digging an aquaduct from the pool on the hill opposite the castle that allways loods the lower street, a mass of ruins and tufa was dug up and brought to light; the same happened nearby a short time ago. In the garden of the house that Willem Ruhr lives in, of the horsemen under command of Mr Van Sommelsdijck, I saw a mixture of sherds, tiles and ancient stucco being thrown out when they were digging rather deep, and a coin of Octavianus Augustus found in a nearby garden.

Reconstructed measurements outside 232 x 80-90 x 63, inside 200 x 50-55 x 40 cm. Contained ‘ine’ human bones and grave goods. There is a problem with the date. Doppelfeld (1967, 267, no. D 64, pl. 100) dates a small botle with gold thread to III-IV, and a knife to IIcd (1967, 318, no. F 40). Harden (1987/1988, 125-6) dates the grave to IIIcd; Von Boeselager (1989, 32-3), who discusses the entire content, dates it to IIIa. Nota bene: Other tufa sarcophagi of clearly second-century date, published in Leemans 1842, and another one found outside the former St. Joris gate, published by Abeleven/Bijleveld 1895 under inventory number BA V 3, clearly do not belong to the Late Roman cemetery and are not treated here. 280 Tufa sarcophagus. 281 Flat-bodied glass botle on foot with cylindrical neck and funnelshaped mouth surrounded by glass coil; deco- 31 — B stray 280-286 rations on the body of blue, white and gilt glass thread, h 20.5.

It should be noted that all Frankish inds, which concentrate on the Grutberg, are stray inds. As almost entire stray Frankish vessels were found there earlier (B stray 146-157), there may have been Frankish graves in that area, but these were not found during careful excavations, which did result in the inds B stray 307-315. 307 At 1.25 m to the SSW of grave B 601, ‘in a large dark discoloration of the illings of earlier and later graves’ (nothing of the sort indicated on the overall drawing of area G, Fig. 16): a Frankish carinated jar, h 17.2, d 21.8, damaged and incomplete.

Finally, it should be mentioned here what Mr J.R.A.M. Thijssen told me: a works-clerk of the rebuilding of the town hall in the 1970s possesses a group of stray inds. This group, apparently kept in Beuningen, could not be retrieved. CEMETERY OO Daniëls (1955, 325-330) discusses the value of the signatures with which stray inds from the cemeteries on the Hunerberg (as opposed to that of the inner city) are indicated. The following translated quotations are important for the understanding of the Late Roman cemetery Nijmegen-East (OO), as known then: the block be- The report by Weve [Bull. Oudk. Bond 1st series IV (1903) 196-8] was apparently writen as a reaction to the shocking plunder of that year ‘of a plot of waste land E of the Hugo de Grootstraat’, i.e. the plot indicated by Kam with O (and OO). (..) Although I was not specially interested in such maters then, I remember that digging fury well. I have the impression that it was very much furthered by more or less large-scale unemployment; and that, due to particular circumstances of the ownership of the plot, the police only intervened when the surrounding roads were being undermined. Mr Kam did save part of the inds, but much disappeared to elsewhere then. Litle of what was or got broken remained. So the Kam collection comprised few fragments for a long time. (..) Finds during construction of a livery-stable and house in the Hugo de Grootstraat (so that of Mr Wolf, nos 26-28 in the upper part of the street, E side). Among other things, two strata, diference in depth 2 m. In the upper stratum so far 10-12 half-decayed skeletons, next to one another in a regular way, heads to the E. Traces of wooden coins - Constantian coin. (..) Naturally, some inds had been made in this area before. This certainly concerns the acquisition of the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden [RMO] in Leiden (Annual Report RMO 1896-7, 13-4), from the 34 — then well-known Nijmegen antique dealer Grandjean and found ‘on the Hunerberg, now Ten Hoetstraat, on a spot where also many corpses were found’. This latest remark probably explains the very late inds that were always made, beside the very early ones, on the same plot. (..) In a similar way, the ‘very beautiful Roman and Frankish antiquities’ found on the Berg en Dalseweg and then in possesion of the aforesaid Grandjean probably come from plot O and its environs (Annual Report RMO 1900-1, 215). This ind seems not to have been acquired by Leiden at that time. Mr Kam’s well-known laboratory atendant and handy-man, Mr Janssen, always assured me that a cemetery on top of another one was found.” Stuart (1977, 6) treats the problem of irst-century inds from cemetery O that got erroneously the signature OO (of the fourth-century cemetery on the same plot) in the museum inventory card index and sums them up in his list (Stuart 1977, 79-89, signature 1 (OO)). Two of these pieces had found a place in the catalogue below of the stray inds from cemetery OO and have been dropped: OO stray 216 (= inventory number VII.b.38) and OO stray 238 (= inventory number VII.m.6). A prehistoric ind that had crept in, OO stray 15 (= inventory number AA.145), has also been dropped. I may add that no certain stray inds are known from cemetery OO from the last decades of the nineteenth century, when the residential quarter was being built upon it. This may be due to a protecting layer of earth added when the Nijmegen medieval fortiications were demolished. Nevertheless, it has come to my notice that a group of stray inds, come to light during the construction of the Wilhelmina Hospital (now Nursing-home Margriet) is in the possession of the widow of a Nijmegen antique dealer. She is unwilling to show them to anyone outside her family (pers. comm. R. Hoek, who did not reveal her name). ‘Barbarossastraat’ 1 Brown-marbled double-handled jug, h 30.8. Gellep 72.

However, the largest number of ine dark coloured beakers in one grave found during regular excavations is four, in grave OO 70. So we may consider this ind report as false as the graito POTENS in this group.

On the inventory index card is writen: ‘513.9 grave with glass beaker, bronze bracelet, ring and pin U.Berg: (Ubbergen?) or H.Berg?’ H.Berg must be Hunerberg. Apparently there was a sticker with ‘U/H.Berg’ on the beaker when Maria den Boesterd wrote the index card. The other inds and the site could not be identiied. 10 Brown-marbled double-handled jug, h 31.4, d 22. Gellep 72. On it: 11 Brown-marbled solid stopper with cylindrical lower part and conical decorative part with four carinations, type Nijmegen 81; total h. 10.8, h decorative part 7, d 8.2. The height of the decorative part is 22% of that of the jug. No ind-spot indicated for 10 and 11. 12 Smooth double-handled jug, h 21, d 21. Nijmegen 112: model of Gellep 71, but the poter has not added the usual lip above the collar. No ind-spot indicated. 13 Fine dark coloured motto-beaker, Λ•V•E•T•E•:, h 20.3. Künzl 1.6.1. According to inventory index card found in cemetery ‘Hees near Nijmegen’. This provenance may be considered false: it refers to the cemetery of the town Ulpia Noviomagus, dated AD 70-240 (Brunsting 1937, 3). 14 Piece of potery with motto BIBE: Evelein 1930, 29. This probably is a beaker of Künzl 1.4.1m with moto B•I•B•E (branch, word divider 64) between two horizontals, h 10.3. 15 A card with description and drawing in the inventory card index describes another stray piece with the same moto B•I•B•E, but it mentions a number already given to another piece; the botle cannot be found in the museum de- pot. Fine dark coloured botle with four dents, two incised zones and decoration and moto in white paint in two zones. In the top zone BIBE, the leters separated by dents, in each of which a central large dot and an arc of small dots; in the lower zone verticals lines between the dents and two large dots on both sides of the vertical; h 20.3. Künzl 16.0. 16 Brown-marbled double-handled jug, h 20. Gellep 71. On it was stopper OO stray 194 of type Nijmegen 82; this stopper was later erroneously placed on jug OO stray 193. These numbers could not be redressed ater all numbers had been given. One isolated sarcophagus was found intact some 2 km S of Ulpia Noviomagus and some 1250 m S of its cemetery (Brunsting 1937): ‘the grave of a magistrate of Ulpia Noviomagus near his suburban villa?’ (Van Buchem 1951, 8): Oude Graafseweg near Wolfuilseweg, 20 October 1950: ind of an intact inhumation with grave goods in a tufa sarcophagus, during digging for an electricity cable; transported to Rijksmuseum G.M. Kam, where the contents were excavated (Van Buchem 1951; Daniëls/Brunsting 1955, 57-8). 17 Tufa sarcophagus Dimensions: l 275-280, w 76-80, h 50-62; fragments of a lid; place for the head somewhat higher than the rest of the botom Orientation: 270° Bone material: Complete skull, parts of the vertebral column, pelvis, arms, femora, right tibia; sex unknown, age not higher than 40 Position of grave-goods/dress accessories 18, 19 and 20 near the feet, 21 ‘next to the sarcophagus’. Remark: The sarcophagus being markedly earlier than the cemeteries treated in this study, the types of inds 18, 19 and 21 described below are mentioned but not discussed in the present typology; instead, they are treated here. Inventory 18 Fine dark coloured beaker, measurements not 44 — available, with painted moto and white barbotine decoration: zone dividers 1 (wavy line) at the top and 11 (doted line) at the botom, moto BIBITE (without spacing dots), under which alternating decoration elements 86 (large dot with doted line ending in a hook hanging from it) and 95 (trilobated leaf hanging from wavy line).

Gose 224 (IId-IIIab) = Niederbieber 38 (190-260) = Gellep 402 (IId-IIId). Date: AD 270-280. 5 Find catalogue of the excavations in cemetery B The Late Roman cemetery of Nijmegen Inner City, indicated here with the leter B (for Dutch Binnenstad = inner city), is too large for one map to have legible grave numbers. Therefore, Brunsting’s division into four areas and one isolated grave has been followed: (apart from one isolated grave on the St Jozephhof, erroneously called Kelkensbos in the documentation) the northwest area D, northeast area LN, the central area G, the southeast area M. These leters are abbreviations of one name of a building and three street names, and are explained in short introductions to each area in the catalogue. All grave numbers, however, are preceded by the capital B: Area D: Area LN: Area G: Area M: Kelkensbos B 1 - B 176 B 177 - B 560 B 561 - B 673 B 674 - B 833 B 834 176 graves 384 graves 113 graves 160 graves 1 grave Although the utmost care has been given to identifying every burial by a numbered grave, incertainties could not be completely eliminated in thirteen cases, to be found under numbers B 33, B 211, B 243, B 251, B 279, B 299, B 323, B 428, B 572, B 582, B 583, B 639, and B 750. Area D: graves B 1 - B 176 (Figs. 8-10) Brunsting called this area D ater the Dominican church with cloister, known as Broerkerk, demolished 1950-51, apparently because of instability after the 1944 bombardment. The ROB has later numbered his excavation trenches D 1-14. The old excavations in this area are given in the table below.

B2 Grave: >50 x >50; 103°/283°; NAP surface 28.85, botom 28.00; depth 85 Remark: A discoloration containing tufa fragments. See section drawing A-B in Fig. 10. 45 — 46 — B3 Grave: 150x70; 103°/283° Remark: Only the shape reminded the excavator of a Roman grave. B4 Grave: >40x70; 103°/283° Remark: Discoloration, disappearing in a deeper c.16th-century rubbish pit. Probably a grave. The very irst excavation inds turn up in grave B 5. B5 Grave: cremation grave 92x76; 103°/283°; NAP surface 28.75, botom 27.25; depth 150 Coin: probably a chest of 56x48; nails; 103°/283° Skeletal material: Cremation remains; charcoal. Position of grave goods/dress accessories 1, 2 and 3 touching one another in NE corner of the chest: 3 in corner, 1 to its W, 2 to the S between them.

The complex of graves B 19-20-21-176-25-2627-28 The stratigraphy of this complex is partly uncertain and can be discussed in three small chapters: what is certain, interpretation, and the results. This much is certain: 1. B 27 is earlier than two graves that cut through it, B 26 and B 28. 2. The skeleton of B 20 is under that of B 21. 3. Graves B 20 and B 21 are together in one trench and have the same orientation. 4. Graves B 25 and B 26 are together in one trench and have the same orientation. 5. B 26 cuts through an earlier discoloration to its E. 6. The diferent orientations of the coin of B 25 and the niche containing grave goods to the N of the feet is strange if they belong to the same grave. 7. The botom of grave B 25 and the niche to its N is at the same level. 8. No boundary was found between the coin of B 25 and the niche to its N. 9. No boundaries have been found between the trench of B 20-B 21 with the neighbouring trenches: B 19 on the SW, B 25-B 26 on the NE. Interpretation: 10. There may have been an earlier grave, of which the discoloration E of B 26 and the niche to the N of B 25 would then have been parts. 11. The persons in B 20 and B 21 were buried at the same funeral, their coins being put one on top of the other. 12. The trenches of B 20-B 21 and of B 27, having the same orientation and being in a direct line, are near-contemporaneous. 13. The possibly earlier grave of remark 10 has the same orientation as B 20-B 21 and B 27 and is near-contemporaneous with these. 14. The persons in B 25 and B 26 were buried at the same funeral; their grave was cut through the earlier grave but let its niche intact, through B 27 and through the NE corner of B 20-B 21. 13. It is improbable that the earlier graves were visibly marked on the surface when the trench of graves B 25-B 26 was dug. 14. B 19 is not a niche of the trench of B 20-B 21. The results: The stratigraphy is, graphically rendered: Later level: (B 25 + B 26) (B 28) Earliest level: (B 20+B 21) (earlier grave) (B 27) Uncertain level: (B 19) The excavator, H. Brunsting, hints at the existence of this earlier grave twice: in his list of inds in the niche, and with thin analytic pencil lines drawn on his tracing of the ield drawing. He did not, however, draw the conclusion and so did not give a number to the grave. The earlier grave is called B 176 here: its remains are the discoloration E of B 26 and the niche N of B 25. This high number has been given, as this analysis took place ater several painstaking and time-consuming renumberings of Brunsting’s grave numbers, the highest number of the graves in Area D then being B 175. 49 — B 19 Grave: 125x75; 23°/203° Skeletal material: burnt? human/animal bones against its N wall Remark: Separate grave?, annex to graves B 20 and B 21 and making part of the complex of graves B 19-20-21-176-25-26-27-28. B 20-21 Double grave (skeletons one on top of the other), making part of the complex of graves B 19-20-21-176-25-26-27-28. Grave 235x110. B 20 Grave: 235x110; 102°; NAP surface 28.93, botom 27.45; depth 148 Coin: nails, no further traces; skeleton 102° Skeletal material: Skull with ive molars, tibiae; length <160 cm. Remark: The lower of two skeletons, the skull some 20 cm to the W of that in B 21. Earlier than or contemporary with B 21. Intrusion: fragment of a loor tile, thickness 6. B 21 Grave: 235x110; 102°; NAP surface 28.93, botom 27.45; depth 148 Coin: nails, no further traces; skeleton 102° Skeletal material: Skull, vertebral column, femora, tibiae, length >165. Remark: The top one of two skeletons, the skull some 20 cm to the E of that in B 20. Later than or contemporary with B 20. B 22 Grave: 275x125; 96°; NAP surface 28.90, botom 27.55; depth 135 Coin: (clear traces visible) 190x40; 96° Skeletal material: skull, femora, tibiae. Measurements: foot-knee 50, femur 40, total 163 cm. Remark: To the W of grave B 22 runs the trace of a palisade, a prolongation of the one that cuts grave B 10. It is at a right angle to a trace to the S of grave B 24. Position of grave goods/dress accessories 1 To the let of the let leg, just below the knee. Inventory 1 Coin: follis (without marks of wear) of Maximian Herculius, 298-299, Trier, RIC 281b. Date: AD 298-318. B 23 Grave: 250x150; 106°; NAP surface 28.90, botom 27.35; depth 155 Skeletal material: skull Remark: dug through by a brick well; see section drawing E-F in Fig. 10. B stray 297, found between B 23 and B 24: Coin, found on old surface, NAP c.28.35: Gratian aes III (367-375; CK 321-3?). Terra nigra and coarse sherds. B 24 Grave: 120x110; Coin: 60x30; 106° Skeletal material: Though no bone from this grave is recorded, Lengyel has this grave in his list of bone analyses. See Ch. 7, section Analyses by Dr I.A. Lengyel. Remark: A dark feature to its S may be the trench of a palisade, at a right angle to that which cuts grave B 10 and is prolonged to the W of B 22. B 176 Grave: 200x125; 103°; NAP surface 28.93, botom 27.50; depth 143 Coin: all traces destroyed when the trench for graves B 25-B 26 was dug. Position of grave goods/dress accessories 1-7 were as one group in a niche oriented differently to the coin (103° as opposed to 90°; of an earlier grave, destroyed when B 25 was dug) but with the same base level; it was to the right of the feet. 1 formed the SW of this group; then, clockwise: 3, 2 (in an oblique position), 7, 5 with 6 lying upside down upon it as a lid, and 4 lying on its side. 5 contained the meal 5a-b. Remarks: The existence of this earlier grave is the outcome of the above discussion of the complex B 19-20-21-176-25-26-27-28: see there. Potery inds 1-5 are all kiln wasters or at least 50 — second choice quality; they were possibly especially bought for the funeral. This is strange, as all potery was imported and kiln wasters usually ended upon the reject heap near the kiln. Inventory 1 Terra sigillata plate Gellep 40 (= Chenet 304b), warped in the kiln, d c.25, h 6.5 cm. 2 Terra sigillata bowl Gellep 35 (= Chenet 324c), warped in the kiln, d 16, h 8. 3 Terra sigillata bowl Gellep 29, warped in the kiln, d 12-13, h 6. 4 Reddish brown-marbled jug with pinched spout Gellep 70, very badly marbled, with white painted moto R•E•P•L•E•M•E• between wavy line and running scroll, h 27.5. 5 Coarse bowl with rim thickened on the inside Gellep 122, warped, with iring cracks, d 20.2, h 9.6. It contains: 5a Pig: carpalia or tarsalia, phalanges I, II and III. The unfused bones come clearly from the same limb. Age at slaughter 10-12 months at the most; 41 frgm, 4.6 gr. Mammal: unidentiiable fragments, probably belonging to the pig’s leg: 50 frgm, 0.2 gr. 5b Chicken: proximal part of let femur, 1 fragment, 0.2 gr. 6 Coarse dish Gellep 128, d 14.2, h 4. 7 Glass cylindrical botle with band-shaped handle Isings 51a (= Gellep 301), h 15. Date: AD 301-325. B 25 Grave: supposedly 256x100; 90°; NAP surface 28.93, botom 27.50; depth 143 Coin: >128x40; 90° Skeletal material: femora, let humerus Remark: This grave is part of the complex of graves B 19-20-21-176-25-26-27-28. In the above discussion of this complex, it was concluded that B 25 and B 26, which are lying in the same grave, were buried at the same time, their later grave destroying the coin and bones of the earlier grave B 176. Stratigraphical date: AD 301-? B 26 Grave: supposedly 256x100; 90°; NAP surface 28.93, botom presumably 27.50 like neighbouring B 25; depth 143 Coin: >100x? (trace with four nails to the right, nails pointing outward); 90° Skeletal material: Skull Position of grave goods/dress accessories 1 immediately to the E of the head. Remarks: This grave is part of the complex of graves B 19-20-21-176-25-26-27-28. In the above discussion of this complex, it was remarked that B 25 and B 26, which are lying in the same grave, were buried at the same time, the later grave destroying the coin and bones of the earlier grave B 176 and cuting B 27. Inventory 1 The remains of a wooden chest, consisting of the bronze sheet mountings of the front side (decorative mountings, lock mounting), and iron reinforcements on the back corners. Dimensions taken in situ: l 38, w 36, h 28. No traces of contents of the chest. The mountings were formerly reconstructed on a plaster model in the museum, on the basis of a full scale drawing made during the excavation. The reconstruction in Buschhausen 1971 (number A 24, p 57, A Tafel 25; refers to Van Doorselaer 1964, 307 and 304), who did not know of this drawing, is incorrect; moreover, his drawing is a mirror image, as appears from the decoration of the round mountings. In 2002, a new reconstruction of the chest was made with the use of synthetic resin (see photo). The following description gives the functional mountings irst, and then the decorative ones. Six bent lozenge-shaped iron mountings reinforce the back corners of the chest. Eight corner mountings of bronze sheet are placed on the front in such a way, that square ields containing concentric circles and ive decorative nails decorate the front. The top ones let and right are on the front of the lid. A tongue-shaped band with a decoration of concentric circles and knobs on its edges joins the front and the underside in the middle. The rectangular keyhole plate, whose central hole is surrounded by concentric circles, 51 — is on the middle of the top of the front. Above it, a corresponding angled plate joins the front and the top of the lid; a ring on it facilitated liting the lid. There are three pentagonal and four round decorative mountings on the front. The pentagonal ones each have a rosete with a frontal human head in its middle; the round ones have a winged Amor standing to the right facing a tree. On the front of the lid, there are two such round plates between the corner mountings and the plate with the ring. The two others are in corresponding places near the base. The reconstruction has four pentagonal mountings (instead of the three actually found) and these are placed in two rows around the keyhole plate. Date: AD 301-367. B 27 Grave: 250x100; 105°; NAP surface 28.93, botom 27.15; depth 178 Coin: 170x40; 105° Skeletal material: skull, vertebral column, pelvis, femora, tibiae Position of grave goods/dress accessories 1 was standing outside the coin, to the right of the upper legs. Remark: This grave is earlier than B 28 and B 25-B 26, whose trenches cut through it. See the above discussion of the complex of graves B 19-20-21176-25-26-27-28, of which it makes part. Intrusion: some sherds, including a coarse basewall fragment. Inventory 1 Small glass barrel-botle Gellep 333, h 12.2, handle lost during the excavation. Date: AD 301-400. Stratigraphical date: AD ?-367. Combined date: AD 301-367. B 28 Grave: 175x85; 55°; NAP surface 28.93, botom not recorded, presumably between 27.50 and 27.60; depth c.138 Skeletal material: pelvis, femora, tibiae, orientation 55° Intrusion: sherds Remark: Later than B 27, through which it cuts; more or less aligned with B 18. B 29 Grave: 70x20; 34°/214° Remark: This very small grave was covered with two intact imbrices without stamps, one of which was removed (and the other presumably let in situ). Inventory 1 Complete imbrex, measurements unknown. B 30 Grave: 200x>100; 107°; NAP surface 28.95, bottom 27.15; depth 180 Coin: 110x30-36; 107° Skeletal material: tooth and jaw fragments Remark: Partly under disturbed earth; N side not found. Distance between jaw and foot-end 86 cm. B 31 Grave: 205x67; 104°/284°; NAP surface 29.05, botom c.28.00; depth c.105 Intrusion: sherd Remark: Only just visible in the plane. B 32 Grave: 120x50; 108°/288°; NAP surface 28.98, botom 28.00; depth 98 Coin: 114x25; 108°/288° B 33 Grave: 210x100; 289°; NAP surface 29.05, botom 27.60; depth 145 Coin: 150x45 (oak wood, nails); 270° Skeletal material: skull, femur (l. 40 cm), unspeciied parts (length skeleton given as 145 cm) Remark: Grave B 33 was excavated by Brunsting in 1949 under excavation number D 27. If the digitised ield drawings made by the ROB are correct (and they can proven to be not corrrect in the cases of the positions of excavation trenches 131 and 142, where graves with inds excavated by Bloemers are at exactly the same spot as graves excavated earlier by Brunsting), then Bloemers excavated a grave without grave goods 52 — on exactly the same spot in 1978 under excavation number 141/21=XIX. It has been decided to count these two graves as one. B 34 Grave: >35x90; 103°/283°; NAP surface 28.98, botom 27.75; depth 123 Remark: In large part disturbed; E end preserved. A narrow feature between B 34 and B 35 has not been counted as a grave. B 35 Grave: 80x70; 81°/261°; NAP surface 29.05, bottom 27.85; depth 120 Coin: 60x20; 81°/261° Remark: A baby’s grave.

Grave: >233x70; 81°/261°; NAP surface 29.05, bottom 27.60; depth 145 B 36 Coin: 54x30; 81°/261° B 37 Dimensions: 36x20; 81°/261° B 38 Dimensions: 78x25; 81°/261° B 39 ?x20; 81°/261°, botom 27.70 Remark: B 39 was only seen in the proile of the excavation trench. B 40 Grave: >130x>55; 284°; NAP surface 29.05, bottom 27.90; depth 115 Skeletal material: skull Remark: Earlier than B 41, which cuts it. This is remarkable, as B 40 is a W-E grave, and B 41 has grave goods. See section E-F in Fig. 10. Stratigraphical date: AD ?-367. B 41 Grave: 225x80; 80°/260°; NAP surface 29.05, bottom 27.35; depth 170 Coin: >55x30, nails; 80°/260° Skeletal material: end of an unidentiied long bone in the W Position of grave goods/dress accessories In a row along the middle of the long S side of the coin; from E to W: 2, 3, 1. Remark: Later than B 42, on top of which it lies, and than B 40, which it cuts. See section E-F in Fig. 10. Inventory 1 Terra sigillata beaker Gellep 16 (= Chenet 335a) with barbotine decoration under the slip (tendrils, dots, hedera); above it, in white paint IMPLEOLA (without dots). H 14.5. 2 Terra sigillata bowl Gellep 34 (= Chenet 320), h 5.5. 3 Fine dark coloured beaker Symonds 61 incised, h 15. Date: AD 301-367. B 42 Grave: NAP surface 29.05, botom under 27.35; depth >170 Coin: N-S Skeletal material: some bone traces Intrusion: a Pingsdorf sherd in a pit E of B 41. Remark: This earlier grave was only noticed by the traces of bones under B 41. Its layout remained unclear when it was excavated. Stratigraphical date: AD ?-367. B 43 Grave: 230x115; 90°/270°; NAP surface 29.03, bottom 27.23; depth 180 Coin: no other traces than tree iron nails; 90°/270° Position of grave goods/dress accessories 1 As appears from the position of the nails, in the SW corner of the coin. Intrusion: small sherd Remark: The beaker was empty, so it must have been covered by 2 a stone not noticed during excavation. Inventory 1 Fine dark coloured beaker Symonds 61 incised, h 15.5. Date: AD 301-367. 53 — B 44 Grave: >110x105; 117°(/297°) Coin: >88x58 and 42; 117°(/297°) Skeletal material: right humerus(?) Intrusion: some sherds, iron, charcoal Remark: Heavily damaged by a rubbish pit. Not completely excavated, as it was under a wall. The grave forms part of the complex of graves B 44-B 47; from early to late: B 46, B 44, B 45, B 47. The long walls of the coin seem to be double. The x on the drawing is not explained in any documentation. B 45 Grave: >52x58; 11°/191° Intrusion: much charcoal Remark: Later than B 46 and B 44, which it cuts, and earlier than B 47, which cuts it. Stratigraphical date: AD ?-367. B 46 Grave: >50x>50; 2°/182° Remark: The oldest grave of the complex B 44-B 47.

Remark: Two possibilities to explain the presence of the bones 4a beside the dishes: the meat was eaten by someone who atended the funeral; or the piece(s) of meat slid of when the grave was illed. As both dishes are deep, both possibilities are equally improbable. Unfortunately, the bones 4a have not been examined and cannot now be found in the museum storeroom.

This object clearly is a present-day intrusion: it is a present-day shape; other tweezers in these graves are of a single piece of bronze; they belong in male burials, not in female ones, as this grave undoubtedly is, with its pins, mirror, and anointing slab.

B 60 Grave: 110x56; 90°/270° B 61 Grave: >135x55; 180°; NAP surface 27.57, botom 26.95; depth 62 Skeletal material: skull; distance skull-under the waist 110 cm. Position of grave goods/dress accessories According to one drawing (for the other one, see remarks below): 1-3 on the waist: from right to 56 — let, i.e. from E to W, buckle (part of 1) with its (now mostly missing) tongue to the right, tweezers 3, strap end (part of 1), large belt stifener (part of 1), axe 2, its edge to the let and its convex part to the top, visibly lying on another large belt stifener (part of 1); underneath it two other large belt stifeners. 4 in the jaw. Intrusion: sherd of grey coarse (jug?), splinter of brownish potery, splinter of terra sigillata, not necessarily fourth-century. Remarks: Grave disturbed just beyond the waist. Ypey (1969 and 1980) published the belt set (extensively) and the grave (summarily). Böhme (1974, 285, Taf. 84, 11-22) summarily published the grave. Ypey’s comment in 1980 is: ‘It concerns the inhumation of a Germanic warrior of the irst half of the ith century, whose so-called simple belt set imitates the large Kerbschnit sets of the fourth century. Possible further grave goods of this S-N grave got lost when the grave was disturbed in medieval times. The warrior belonged to a larger Germanic population group that lived and served in the garrison of Noviomagus (Nijmegen) in late antiquity.’ There are two versions of detailed grave drawings in ink, and it cannot be made out which one is correct, the more so as both seem to contain errors: the omission of parts in the irst version, and improbable positions of some parts in the second one. The irst version, shown by Ypey (1969, 114, Abb. 17) does not show all parts of belt set 1, but only parts 1b, 1c, and 1d; the other ones may then have been found at a deeper level. The second version shows, from right to let, i.e. from E to W: tweezers 3, strap end 1c pointing E, decorative fastening 1a, buckle 1b pointing W i.e. away from the decorative fastening, one of the long belt stifeners 1d, and axe 2. The four belt stifeners 1d around the axe were originally (in the two documentations present) taken for parts of a casing for the axe. For coin 4, the Koninklijk Penningkabinet sent in the following unexpected identiication in 1964: Antoninus Pius (137-161), denarius 154/5, portrait of M. Aurelius, cf RIC 463b. The excavator H. Brunsting decided that this could not be the right one, as he had notes on a decayed small bronze fourth-century coin, and he decided to remove the coin from the cemetery series. The presence of a second-century denarius is not improbable in itself: cf the ith-century grave B 465 with a second-century denarius in the mouth. Inventory 1 Late Roman/early Frankish bronze belt set, type Ypey BB1 = Sommer series 2, variant 1, shape c. 1a Two end plates, l 11.4, w 2.0-2.2, both consisting of a rectangular strip with a bevelled edge and a ribbed tube of the same length slid onto the opposite long side. The reverse of one of these, recognisable by the three belt rivets protruding there, had been used earlier as the front side, as appears from Kerbschnit decoration of eight-armed crosses, squares with one diagonal and diamonds within squares. The rivets protrude 0.2 and could hold one layer of leather. 1b The buckle with ixed plate can hold a belt of 4 cm width. Wear marks on the underside of its buckle frame show that it rested partly on the let end plate. 1c Undecorated lancet-shaped strap end with bevelled edge, l 5.4, w 3.4 cm, with two rivets and a slit for the belt end that has a width of 2.5 cm. 1d Four large belt stifeners, l 11.1, w 1.2-1.4, with edges chamfered except at the three rivet positions; double horizontal grooves above and under the rivets; small horizontal grooves let and right of these rivets. The rivets still present protrude for 0.2 and are apparently meant for one layer of leather. 1e Two narrow undecorated belt stifeners of half length with edges chamfered except at the three rivets positions; l 5.7, w 0.8. On the back side of one of these, an incomplete Kerbschnit motif shows that it was clipped from a larger piece for reuse. The rivets still present protrude for 0.4 and are meant for two layers of leather. 1f One belt stifener of quarter length l 2.7, w 0.7 cm, decorated in the same way as the large 1d 57 — ones. The rivets still present protrude for 0.4 and are meant for two layers of leather. The reconstruction of the belt when it was worn is as follows. It consisted of a main belt, w 11 cm, and a subsidiary one of varying widths. The main belt had a decorative fastening consisting of the two end plates 1a, the tubes lying next to one another. The actual fastening was done with the subsidiary belt, which was fastened to inside of the main belt near the right-hand end plate with the help of the quarter and half-length belt stifeners 1e and 1f. The width of the subsidiary belt near its beginning, under 1f, was 2.7 cm; then, underneath the half-length belt stifeners 1e, 5.7 cm; then, the end part with holes for the buckle, 4 cm. The opening of the buckle 1b corresponded with a hole in the main belt where the buckle was riveted in such a way, that the buckle frame partly rested on the let-hand end plate. The ixed plate of the buckle held this end plate in its place. The subsidiary belt was drawn behind the decorative fastening and emerged through the hole corresponding with the buckle bow. The end of the subsidiary belt with tongue 1c hung vertically from the buckle tongue. The four large belt stifeners 1d were on the back of the main belt, with intervals of 8 cm. The axe 4 and tweezers 3 were worn on the belt and fastened there with leather and/or textile: tweezers 3 above the right leg, axe 4 above the let, with its blade on the main belt and its edge outward, i.e. to the let. (The reconstruction drawing of the comparable belt from Rhenen grave 842 in Bloemers et al. 1981, 117 is incorrect. The draughtsman did not read (correctly?) the text to Ypey 1969, 108-109, Abb. 13 and shows the subsidiary belt emerging between the two end plates, and so he has to put the buckle frame beside the let-hand end plate instead of partly on top of it, as the accompanying photograph of the actual bronze parts shows.) 2 Iron axe, curved, l 16.2 cm, width of back side 4.8, with many textile remains on it. 3 Bronze tweezers, l 4.5, bent from one strip of bronze, with an eyelet at its top and bent-in ends; one end broken of. 4 Coin, small bronze of fourth-century type, almost completely decayed when excavated and now missing. See, however, the remarks above. Date: AD 440-450.

Coin: 80x30 cm, nails; 83°/263° Remark: The depth of this grave is enigmatic. If its botom level is, as recorded, 22.75 +NAP, and the street level above it is indeed only 90 higher, as recorded on the excavation drawing, then that street level would be 23.65 +NAP, i.e. some four metres below the nearest recorded value. The other possibility would make the grave improbably deep. Similar considerations hold for all graves in excavation trench 8, where no street level has been recorded.

B 85 is the irst grave to be listed of those found within the Broerkerk. No loor levels were recorded by the excavator for this demolished church, whereas he did take heights on the stumps of the pillars, varying from 27.90 m to 28.56 m +NAP. Brunsting (1952, 10) argues that the loor level was raised by 50 cm since the church was completed in the 14th century. The only height of a surface (taken in the E end of the N aisle), 28.28 m +NAP, is therefore taken as the presentday street level for the entire church, and so the Roman ield level is reconstructed 80 cm plus 50 cm lower, at 26.98 +NAP.

The combination of dish 3 with chicken 3a on terra sigillata plate 1 suggests that it would thus be served to the diner, ater which the dish would be placed before the plate and the chicken moved from the dish to the plate.

Though the shape of this pin is reminiscent of the axe type Siegmund FBA 4.1, dated 570-585 (Siegmund 1998, 204 Fig. 81), it is clear from the potery and the coin in the grave that the pin must be dated to IVb, and that the head was not meant to look like an axe: the axe type did not exist yet. 4 Coin: Constantine I, follis 323-324, Londen, RIC 287.

Position of grave goods/dress accessories Seemingly carefully spread along the longitudinal axis of the grave, from W to E: 2, 5, 3, 6 in the W, 1 in the E. Remarks: The W group of inds are at the W end of the cremation remains. 4 and 5 show that this 67 — is a soldier’s burial: melon beads were also used as soldiers’ amulets and around the necks of military horses (Theune in: Pirling-Siepen 2006, 568). The shears 2 it in with a remark of PirlingSiepen (2006, 417-8) that all but one Gellep examples were found in cremation graves that differ from what is usual, e.g. because they were cremations in the midst of inhumations. It is diicult to date this grave. Shears and knives were used throughout the period of use of the Nijmegen cemeteries. The melon bead 4, the hinge ibula 5 and Caligula’s dupondius are clearly from earlier centuries; giving irst-century coins is frequent in the Nijmegen Late Roman cemeteries. So the grave does belong to the cemetery (and it was not already there before the irst graves were dug). If the two iron keys 7 have anything to do with wooden chests, they may be dated to IVAB. The cremation and the date of ibula 5 show that this is one of the earliest graves of the cemetery.

B 223 Grave: 165x>25; 111°/291°; NAP surface 27.99, botom 27.60; depth 36 Skeletal material: Skull Remark: This grave is marked on the plans of two level drawings, which are contradictory on the point of stratigraphy. On level 2, grave B 223 covers (and so is later than) the complex B 223224-225, visible on level drawing 3; where it in its turn is cut in half by (and so is earlier than) B 224. The problem is aggravated there by NAP-indications of tops and botoms of these three graves, where the tops are lower than the bot- toms. As a solution, I take the large feature visible on level drawing 2 to be the discoloration of all these three graves together. The measurements given above are those of level 3.

Beaker 56 in the coin, standing to the right of the lower legs; beaker 57 in the coin, standing to their let. Remarks: Later than B 297, which it cuts. The grave, under its excavation number (Lange) Nieuwstraat 88, has atracted atention because of its coin series and mysterious small objects: see Zadoks-Josephus Jita 1961 (coin list); Gorecki 1975, 399-401, no. 271 (coin list with some diferent identiications); Steures 2004a, 2004b. In the later article and in the present typology, the grave is interpreted as that of a female Sabazios worshipper from Cologne. The grave is dated by its latest coin to the year AD 319. there were 25 coins of the years 313-318 and only one of 319. In order to retain Gorecki’s numbers, the coins are treated irst, in the order he treats them. The identiications, however, are by R.W. Reijnen. This causes the presentation of the series not to be entirely chronological anymore. For that reason, the same data are given in a diferent order in Coin list 2: in chronological order ater their latest minting dates. Photograph of part of the inds: Swinkels/Koster 2005, 77 botom.

Inventory 1 No remains of a reported wooden chest found on inspection in the museum depot, unless no. 4 is a scanty remainder. No writen details of the chest can be found in the documentations; the only document to go by is the overall drawing of Brunsting’s excavations, Fig. 11. The chest is a very small rectangle there, suggesting measure- 95 — ments of some 10x6 cm, which is completely different from other chests, e.g. the one in B 293 on the same drawing. 2 Two bronze rings, outer d 2.3, inner d 1.6, of round section, d 0.4.

Stratigraphical relation to B 429 is unclear. On the overall drawing of Brunsting’s excavations, Fig. 11, the skull is lying next to the femur, and N of the tibia is another long bone, as if they belong to (an)other, deeper grave(s). The excavator, however, did not draw such conclusion. See also remark to B 429.

As the lid of the coin collapsed, they fell pell-mell into the coin. Cooking-pot 3 was found standing in the SE corner of the coin, but as it stood there in the line 1-3-2-4, it may have fallen of the lid as well. Pin 6 was lying horizontally with its tip above the skull and its head to the right. Pin 7 was lying along the right temple, its pin up and its head at the height of the jaw. Fibula 8 was lying under the jaw, its pin upwards. Fibula 13, with beads 14 upon it, was lying halfway between the skull and the right shoulder, its pin pointing upwards. The at least 234 beads 9 (the drawing shows 282 of them), when stringed 111 — together some 50 cm long, were found under ibula 8 and against, under and at the inside of the jaw. As the same kind of beads (14) were found on ibula 13, the reconstruction in the drawing of B 465.9 as a necklace is probably wrong: see below, The pectoral in B 465. Coin 10 was in the mouth. Fibula 11 was lying on the middle of the breast, its foot pointing to the let shoulder. Object 12 was found standing against the right temple. Triple ring 16 was on the vanished right elbow, buckle 17 near it, and head of stave 18 to the right of the vanished right forearm. Near the vanished let hand were lying objects 19-22. Shears 23 were lying beyond the vanished feet, and pendants 25 just beyond 23, on top of one another, on the axis of the cofin. Next to them, under the vanished let foot, beads 24, which were not found in the museum depot. Textile remains were found next to 5, 6, 7 (black), 12, 17, 20, and 24. They are given the numbers 5A etc. below. Textile fragment was found near glass beaker 5 or more probably next to shears 23. The pectoral in B 465 Mrs Wil van der Sluijs suggested to me that ibulae 8 on the let and 13 on the right shoulder together with beads 9 and 14 could have formed a gold-coloured pectoral of parallel strings of beads, the ibulae closing a peplos-like garment. Böhme (1974, 160-1, ig. 53) already reconstructed for grave B 465 such a pectoral of more simple form, with one string of beads; ibula 11, on the middle of the breast, is not part of his reconstructed pectoral. His igure shows 25 contours of Germanic ladies, ten of which with such combinations of ibulae and beads to pectorals: four pectorals with one string of beads, four with two, and two with tree strings. The igure also shows seven contours with bead necklaces, one of which in combination with a three-string pectoral (Cortrat grave 26). The total length of the 234 or 282 small beads of 9 and 14 in B 465 allows for the following reconstruction, made by Mrs Van der Sluijs. A three- string pectoral, the two upper strings consisting of small beads, the lower one of the bronze wire pendants with separating oblong beads, and, in the centre, the lunula, lanked by two groups of three Überfang beads and two groups of coloured beads (one white, two green and two red on one side, a white and three black ones at the other); this lower string is illed out with small beads. There are an emerald green and a white bead near ibula 8 at the end of each string. All beads of this pectoral have been listed under ind number B 465.9. Intrusion: Rim sherd of a fourth-century terra sigillata bowl. Remarks: This grave was summarily published by H.W. Böhme, 1974, 285, Taf. 85, under a transformation of its original excavation number LN 46, as 46 Nieuwstraat. Ypey (1980, 155-157) also summarily published it as Nieuwstraat 46, with new drawings, made ater the cleaning and restoration of many inds, adding the following comment: ‘The rich furnishing of the 12-14 year old girl from Nijmegen with ornaments, instruments and vessels is not unusual for Germanic children’s graves of the fourth and ith century. The immature girl belonged to a Germanic family, whose male members served in the Roman army as personnel of the Late Roman garrison of Noviomagus.’ (Transl. D.St.) The excavation number was later changed to LN 246 (there already was a LN 46). Steures 2002b, a spin-of of the present typology, discusses pendants 25 and interprets the grave as that of a ith-century Germanic priestess of the pole idol shown on the pendants. Most types give a wide date AD 401-450, but three types narrow it down to the middle of the ith century: apart from the guilt miniature beads 9 and 14, there are dish ibula 13 of type Rhenen (see immediately below; Böhme 1974, 25, Fig. 8) and buckle 17. Parallels of both later types are to be found in Rhenen grave 356, dated to the middle of the ith century (Böhme 1974, 39, 268, Taf. 60). Miniature beads 9 and 14 are also mid ith century (Wil van der Sluijs, pers.com.). 112 — It must be remarked that this very late grave with its Germanic long pins contains Roman pottery and glass vessels and so a meal: a Roman rite that had been discontinued for some decades and is for one time resumed for a Germanic lady.

The interpretation is uncertain, as no textile remains cling to it, and so many others were found in this grave. 23 Iron shears, l 21.5, max w 5.5. Half an iron ring, d 4, clung to its tip: a fastening intended to prevent the scissors from opening unintentionally? 24 A string of very diferent glass beads: a. a segmented one, b,c. two globular ones, d-g. tubular ones with ire-rounded ends, h. a small ?bronze rod with a thread irregularly wound around it. 25 Three identical Preßblech pendants with horizontal tubular eye, d 2.8, all three found incomplete (twice restored since their ind in 1961; as they were incomplete in diferent places, they are reliably completed now).

This sarcophagus was removed from the site in July 1957 and put to dry in Museum G.M. Kam, where it was opened in the presence of many archaeologists and authorities on October 14 of that year. In the evening of that day, H. Brunsting wrote a report of his indings, from which we quote: “A thin sandy layer became visible, thicker at head and foot-ends; the top of the skull protruded from it on the W side. A bronze pin with head was seen on it at irst inspection. Around it, undulating remains, either hair or the folds of a textile cap. At second inspection, these had already fallen down on the sand from which they irst protruded. (Textile remains lying lat on the skull were seen later [but could not be examined].) The skull was hardly inspected then. A white talcum-like substance lying on it might have been the remains of an unguent.” Years later, he wrote the following note: “On the middle of the forehead there was a small cone-like light grey heap with a more or less sharp point, base c.2.5, h c.1.5, (all this remembered years later..), which made me think of a semi-liquid substance poured from a container or pressed from something like a tube. Naturally, this reminds one of an unction put on the forehead and not touched or moved since then. Probably put there ater death or total loss of consciousness: an anointing of the dying or dead child? As it was tried to lit this heap, it fell to dust, and we did not manage to take a sample The sarcophagus of the Grutberg, B 620, is cleaned by a ield technician. of it. Its last remains spread out evenly.” (Transl. D.St.) Coins 1-6 were later stolen from the Museum Kam. Similar coins now in the sarcophagus in the museum exhibition probably come from the Kam coin collection in the museum.

The one at the let ear was broken and is not shown here. The point of the wire was put through the eyelet and bent into a hook: the earrings were permanently worn. D earring 1.6, d wire 0.1. 14 Tutulus ibula, built from a bronze base-plate, under which bronze pin with ive spirals on each side of it, and a catchplate; with central axis riveted onto it. The axis is surrounded by a small bronze ring at half height. Surviving body: the lower concave silver ring and the silver top illed with lead. Further rings in between have vanished and were probably made of organic material. H from base-plate to top 3; lower ring h 0.9, d 2.6-3.5; top h 0.95. Textile remains: see below. 15 Four tambourine sticks. The sticks are made from pear or apple wood, still favourite materi- 128 — als for making musical instruments such as recorders, because these materials are easily worked (identiication: Pauline van Rijn, BIAX). The following description is based on the reconstruction drawing by the late J. Ypey; the fact that it is correct was borne out by observations made by the author on the preserved fragments, before two tambourine sticks were restored in 1998-1999. Length 37.3 cm, diameter 3.5. A symmetrically proiled middle part serves as a handle. Two rectangular apertures, 1.9 x 8.4, have been cut out on both sides of this handle. Somewhat beyond the middle of each hole, at 6.3 from each end of the stick, are two heavy bronze bowl-shaped ratles, their rims laring in opposite directions (d 4.2-4.7, h 0.75-0.9) on a transverse iron rod (l 3.9, d 0.4) with hammered ends securing the rod. At both ends of each aperture are bronze sheet bands whose ends overlap 1 cm, each kept in place by one bronze nail; width near the handle 1.2, near the ends 1.7 cm. So there are four bands per tambourine stick. There are 13 fragments of wood that preserve the complete diameter of the wood and have or have had bronze sheet bands, plus two fragments of such places. So the (minimum) number of tambourine sticks from the sarcophagus of the Grutberg is four. The number of preserved ratles, six, i.e. three pairs, is strange, as there must have been eight pairs to four tambourine sticks. Thickness and weight of the ratles, 100 grams per pair of ratles, precludes the possibility that the missing ones would have corroded away completely: the tambourine sticks appear to have been intentionally destroyed before their remains were put in the foot-end of the sarcophagus. This was conirmed by the position of broken pieces of the sticks, and the position of one of the bronze sheet bands, no. 8, near the knees. There are no indications that the tambourine sticks would have been connected to one another. The situation sketch reproduced here erroneously shows piece b inserted into piece b1: the photo from which it was traced shows them not to be connected. Four replicas are in Museum Het Valkhof, three of which by the late J. Ypey. Two tambourine sticks were restored (in a heavily warped state) 1998-1999. 16 Bone comb in three layers with triangular grip decorated with dot-and-circles along its edges; teeth all gone. Preserved l 7, h 3. Restored 19981999. 17 Mirror: convex transparent colourless mirror glass with remains of a relecting metal layer on its concave back side in a lead or tin frame. This frame was largely decayed and showed ive dotand-circles. It was restored for the second time 1998-1999. Corresponding with the description in Lloyd-Morgan 1981, 106: she reconstructs eight dot-and-circles within a garland of lowers in relief. The back side of the frame is lat. 18 Beads: 8 heart or almond-shaped beads, slightly transparent light greyish blue, w 0.5, d 0.4, h 0.8, Riha 2947fVar; 1 roller or cylinder-shaped bead, slightly transparent jade green, d 0.4, h 0.3, Riha 2826fVar. 19 Fragment of a bronze ringlet. 20 Small bronze knob. Description of the textile remains At the fastening of bracelet 7: tabby-weave, z/z, c.16x11 threads per cm2. Vegetable ibre, probably linen. At bracelets 9: three minuscule textile fragments, numbered Wa, Wb, Wc. Wa is tabbyweave, c.20x25 threads per cm2, probably z/z. Wb and Wc are probably fragments of one piece of cloth: tabby-weave, c.11x13 threads per cm2, z/z. At tutulus ibula 14: three layers of tabby-weave, c.24x26-30 threads per cm2, probably warp and wet respectively. Vegetable ibre, probably linen. One of the fragments possibly near a selvedge: the supposed wet is doubled there.

It is as if this lady was not lied to rest sotly. She is the only person in Roman Nijmegen who can be proven to have been a Christian: she proclaims so, by wearing an ornament with a christogram. Her grave does not have the supposed Christian orientation of 270°, i.e. she does not ly with her head to the W. See, in Chapter 13, Interpretation, the section W-E graves: a Christian orientation? Inventory 1-2 Two silver pins with polyhedral heads (with fourteen planes: cubes from which the eight corners have been removed), l 6.2 and 6.3. 3 Silver agrafe, reconstructed l 2.3, with originally hooks from the four corners bent downwards and inwards. Right hooks missing. On the face (h 1.6, w 1.4) an incised Christogram (ligature of X and P) within a square. The christogram stands when the hooks are on the let and right. Literature: Steures 2004a with further bibliography. Its condition is steadily deteriorating and its upper right corner was broken of recently, as appears from the comparison of the photos in Brunsting (1969, 24), Bloemers et al. (1981, 120: still as in 1969), Willems (1990, 84: upper right stump of hook then broken of) and Willems et al. (2005, 197 ig. 82: upper right corner now broken of). 4 Bronze ibula pin.

Whatever the direction of the body, this does not look like the position of a bracelet worn on a wrist. Remark: The coin was standing on a much larger slab of slate-stone. Inventory 0 A slab of slate-stone, 101x73x10. 1 Two fragments of a bracelet of twisted bronzewire of square section, d 5, on which a small bronze bell with iron clapper. Date: AD 301-367. B 697 Grave: 220x85; 282°; NAP surface 29.28, botom 28.56; depth 72 Coin: 120x30; 282° Skeletal material: Skull Position of grave goods/dress accessories Grave goods in the foot-end of the coin, all standing upright, in two rows. The row near the right foot (S), counted towards the foot-end, consists of the glass objects 3, 4 and 5. The row near the let foot (N), of potery objects 1 and 2. Remark: The detailed drawing of this grave shows it to be a W-E grave, whereas Brunsting’s overall drawing, Fig. 18, shows a dot for a skull at the E end; similar errors in Brunsting’s overall drawing were made for graves B 437, B 438 and B 441 in Fig. 11. As the coin measured 120 and the space between the top of the head and the grave goods measured 96 cm, this must be a child’s grave.

Pin 10 was found under the skull. All other artifacts were in a niche to the right (N) of the waist, probably at the same height as the botom of the grave (altitude not documented). From let to right (W to E): glass bowl 5, half under it to the E glass beaker 4, and behind them (N) dish 3; chest 9, containing balsamarium 6, pin 11 and bracelets 12 and 13; to its right (E) jug 2, covered by stone 7, to the right behind it (NE) beaker 1; to the right (E) of jug 2, glass jug 8. Remark: Three rectangular bronze mountings on chest 9, to be described below, are so far the earliest Christian narrative representations within Dutch frontiers. See Steures 2004a. Inventory 1 Fine dark coloured beaker Symonds 61 incised, h 14.5. 2 Brown-marbled double-handled jug Gellep 72 with white dots on shoulder, h 26.7. 3 Coarse dish Gellep 128, d 18.4. 4 (under 5) Glass hemispherical beaker Gellep 178/180?, disintegrated. 5 Glass bowl ± Gellep 222 with two incised horizontal lines, d 18.5-19. 6 Glass balsamarium Gellep 523, body hardly wider than neck, h 10.2. 7 Stone on 2. 8 Small glass jug Isings 88c with handle and glass trail applied at two places: on the lower part of the body up to the largest diameter, and higher part of the neck up to the underside of the lip (restored), h 12.7. 9 Wooden chest, w 38 x d 24(?) x h 27 with iron hinges and lock with turnkey, and bronze sheet mountings on its front. On a photograph, published already in Fasti arch. 7 (1954) 436 under number 5621 with igure 129, the entire front of the chest with bronze sheet mountings is seen, with two horizontal cracks between three planks. The front of the chest was recovered as a whole, but only the top plank with the keyhole plate was preserved; the rest of the wood has been lost. Grooves chiseled in the back of the preserved plank show that there was an inner compartment top right, 5.8 wide and 4 cm high. The lower part and the front of the lid were irst supplemented in new wood, with slips of paper in the shapes of the bronze sheet mountings pasted onto it, and the actual remains upon them. In 2001, the chest was restored and reconstructed by Jo Kempkens. Photographs ater reconstruction: Swinkels/Koster 2005, 77; Demandt/Engemann 2007, 289 ig. 10; Grüßinger et al. 2007, II.4.43. Six iron plates belonging to the chest, l 9-13.2, w 2-2.2, one with a hinge eyelet atached, and the internal iron lock plate (h 10, w at top 7, at bottom 5) were subsequently found in the museum depot. The plate with hinge has two nail holes and, in its rounded top, a hinge hole, in which the ring end of the other hinge plate is preserved: a surprisingly crude hinge for this otherwise ine chest. The iron lock consists of a strip hanging from the inside of the front of the lid and an internal lock plate nailed onto the wood and curved in such a way that the iron strip could slide between it and the wood. A square hole in the lock plate has an upstanding bronze pin at the botom right corner, which would snap into a corresponding hole in the strip. The (missing) key conceivably draws the strip towards the wood and away from the bronze pin, thus allowing the chest to open. The description of the chest and its bronze sheet mountings in Buschhausen (1971) 106, under number A 52 is incomplete and not entirely correct. The mountings are applied in a symmetrical pattern. Six corner plates are meant to create the 139 — impression that they join front and sides (no nails on the short sides): two on the corners of the lid, four on the corners of the front. The edges pointing inwards are notched with small triangles (ive on the lid, six on the chest) and small rectangles. Behind each triangle, a keyholeshaped hole has been cut out. Top and botom edges of the corner plates have punched diagonal crosses. Each corner plate is nailed onto the front with ive bronze nails: one in the centre of an ornament of concentric circles (three circles on the lid, four on the chest) and one in each corner. On the middle of the top of the front is the keyhole plate, decorated in the same way and fastened with four bronze decorative nails with frontal lions’ heads within beaded rims (the one on botom let is lost). The corresponding mounting on the front of the lid was fastened with ive such lion’s head nails; the central one and the one top right have been preserved. All missing nails have been replaced by replicas. Two narrow undecorated plates and a central wider one (now lost, not restored) joined the underside to the front. In a zone above it, there were ive small plates: two vertical rectangles at the sides, three round ones in the middle, the central one being larger. Remains of two of these have been preserved and show relief. On the let rectangle a veiled frontal head, the right arm raised. The scene is that of the innocent Susanna, known from similar chests (Daniel 13, 34-35; Buschhausen 1971, A 64, 66), although there seems to be litle room for the two elders who irst spied upon her and now accuse her as Susanna stands praying. On the central round plate a Medusa head with hair parted from a central plait. The other two round ones are missing and have been restored as lion’s head nails. Between the top corner plates and the keyhole plate there are two vertical rectangular plates (4x2.5) with Christian representations. Only the botom half can be made out of the let one; the outline is duplicated. It shows the naked lower body of a man, standing on his let leg with the foot pointing outwards; the right leg does not carry weight and the toes of the stretched foot touch the botom line. On both sides, there is illegible relief; this must have shown two small lions. The scene is that of Daniel in the lions’ den, known from similar chests (Daniel 6, 1-29; Buschhausen 1971 A 54, 60, 61, 62, 69, 76, B 12). The botom let corner of the right hand plate is missing. The contours are visible, not the details: a clothed man on the right faces let, where a smaller standing igure within a niche is visible. The scene is that of the raising of Lazarus, likewise known from similar chests (John 11, 1-45; Buschhausen 1971, A 50, 51, 54, 58, 63, 64, 65, 66, 76, 87, B 14). On the front side of the lid, between the notched corner plates descibed above, two round plates with relief and double beaded rims, both fragmentary. The let one shows a helmeted head to the right (Constantine?, Dea Roma?); the right one shows the bust of a man (to the let?), the top of his oval shield covering his (let?) shoulder, a scheme known from Constantinian coins. 10 Silver pin, gilt lat-biconical head, l 8.4. 11 Silver pin with polyhedral head (fourteen planes: cube the eight corners of which have been removed), l 8.4. 12 Two fragments of a spiral-shaped bronze bracelet, possibly with eyelet, diameter unclear. 13 Bone bracelet, fragment, diameter unclear.

Stone 7 covered 2. Remark: Grave goods 2, 3 and 5, made in a unique ware, are clearly imitations of Trier ine dark coloured ware, the production of which stopped in AD 355. They date the grave to the years AD 355-360.

Remarks: Considering the vertical position of the nails, the outer coin had a wooden loor. Wil van der Sluijs (pers.com. 19 June 2008) pointed out that there may be two very old heirlooms in this grave: the style of gold-wire necklace 11 definitely reminds her of the end of the irst century AD; the exceptional string 10 of 49 identical ringshaped blue glass beads (Ringperlen) only inds a parallel in Middle and Late Iron Age. Position of grave goods/dress accessories 1-9 In niche at the SW side of the grave, to the let of the lower body. Jug 1 stood apart from the other grave goods in the niche at the foot-end. The fragments of glass beaker 9 were lying in dish 3. 10 On the botom of the coin, to the right of the waist. The position suggests that the string of beads was worn as a bracelet around the right wrist. 11 Around the neck of the deceased. 12 In wooden chest 18. 13 On the botom of the coin, to the let of the waist. The position suggests that the ring was worn on the let hand. 14 In wooden chest 18. 15 On the botom of the coin, in or near the right hand. 16 In wooden chest 18. 17 On the botom of the coin, next to the right arm. 18 On the botom of the coin at the foot-end. 19 Outside the coin in the grave, to the right of the upper body. 20 In wooden chest 18.

Decayed. 9 20 sherds of a purple glass botle with thick botom. No type. 10 String of 49 glass beads: 49 ring-shaped beads, transparent dark ultramarine, with sheen/mat, d 0.6, h 0.2, Riha 2931c. 11 Gold-wire necklace, l 42, gross weight 6.51 gr, consisting of a bipartite fastening and 46 links. An analysis of the fastening hook shows a high alloy of gold, the gold being c.90% of its weight and c.10% being copper. Both parts of the fastening, l 1.5 (eyelet) and 2.5 (hook) include a symmetrical leaf of gold in the shape of the feathers of an arrow. In the case of the hook, it is soldered onto the leaf. The pointed end of the hook is bent outwards in order to protect the ingers of the woman who wore it. On the eyelet 201 — piece, which is made of the same piece of gold as the feathers, the eye is formed by bending the strip backwards, squeezed in to a halfcylindrical shape and its tip is soldered onto the feathers. An eyelet soldered onto the feathers connects it with the irst link. The gold-wire links, all identical, l 0.9, were bent into eyelets on both ends, ater which the end returned around the wire in a single coil. The wire-shaped middle parts of 16 links wear precious stones, the measurements of which vary from 0.53x0.51 to 0.37x0.25. The precious stones have been identiied by Mr J.C. Zwaan of the Dutch Precious Stone Laboratory: report E 13480 of 1 April 1999. On links 3, 7, 24 and 32, counted from the eyelet piece, reddish brown garnets (pyrope-almandine series with grossular component), cut into polyhedral shape with fourteen planes (cubes of which the corners are cut away). On links 11, 14, 18, 21, 28, 37, 41 and 44 transparent and: shining blue to greyish blue sapphires en cabochon (polished without facetes), latish globular to biconical (lat on links 37). On links 25, 31, 34 and 39: blended and crackled green emerald, tubular and of diferent lengths. All these emeralds were worn on the same side of the body as the fastening hook (on the right, in the case of a right-handed person). 12 A gold-wire earring, d 2.0, of which one ends is bent to form an eyelet, and the other to form a hook. 13 Gold inger-ring with gem. The band, w 0.2, makes angular transitions to the side planes. Small grooves just under these angles. The side planes are triangular and have four grooves, fanning out; at their top side, simple volutes. The side planes have angular transitions to the angular oval bezel., onto which an oval case is soldered (l 1.3, w 0.95, h 0.43). Just above the middle of this case there is a twisted moulding. The case contains a decorative stone of dark blue glass with a raised oval surface (0.85x0.62) and oblique sides. Engraving: person in short tunica to the let with a stick over the let shoulder, from which hang two unidentiiable objects. Near the let hand a plume. 14 Faceted green glass plate with irisation, more or less square, 1.1x1.0, th 0.20-0.25, lat middle facete 0.60x0.45. A yellowish piece of lute or gypsum its in its hollow back side. It has been mounted onto an iron nail, now changed into an irregular corrosion bulb. Part of chest 18? 15 Coin: follis (19), Constantine I, 317-318, Trier, RIC 162, missing. 16 Iron object. 17 Round box of sapropelite a.k.a. channel coal, a dull black fossilized organic material of hardness 2, consisting of a box part with an inner rim that projects 0.2 and a lid with hollow moulding closing around it. D 11.4, h when closed 3.9 (box 2.1, lid 1.8 high). Complete, restored, some cracks; surface treated with wax ater restoration. The decoration on the outside consists of convex and concave mouldings separated by grooves and ribs, running concentrically on the top and the botom. The side of the lid has two planes separated by ribs, above which a convex moulding forms the transition to the top. The centre of both box and lid, both inside and out, has a convex moulding around the impression of the pair of compasses with which the concentric circles were made. The insides of both box and lid around these mouldings are lat and each have a concentric zone some millimeters from the rim decorated with 32 vertically hatched triangles. These zones are lanked on each side by two grooves. The triangles in the lid point outwards (suggesting ‘up’) and have a h of 0.6; in the box part, they point inwards (suggesting ‘down’) and are 0.5 cm high. The inner wall of the box goes up obliquely, that of the lid straight. 18 Metal mountings of a wooden chest. 18a Bronze turnkey, l 5.5, with round eye, d 2.3, hollow shat and lat bit. 18b-e Four iron lozenge-shaped corner reinforcements with mineralized wood on them, for the corners between side and back walls. The triangular halves measure 3.3 at their bases and are 4.4 high. In the ends of two specimens a small nail. 18f Some twenty pieces of bronze sheet. Four 202 — pieces show concentric circles (diameters 4.4 and 4.8) with nail hole in the middle, and rows of punched points along the sides; one has three pairs of cut-out holes. Not drawn. 18g A triangular piece of bronze sheet, shortest side convex, with nail hole and rows of punched point along the sides, measures 3.9 cm from the point to the middle of the convex side. 18h A fragment of a punched round relief plate shows a lion’s or Medusa head. 18i 18 hollow heads of small bronze nails, d 0.3, all lacking their shats.

All but perished. Position of grave goods/dress accessories 1-4 Outside the coin in the grave, at the footend, presumably on wooden chest 11. Ater its wood was perished, they have sunk into an oblique position. It cannot be excluded that jug 3 stood next to the chest on the botom of the grave. As no altitude of the inds 1-4 was measured during excavation, this remains uncertain. 5-6 Outside the coin in the grave, to the right of the head. Unguentarium 6 was sunk into an oblique position and seems to have been put against the coin. Damaged during excavation: rim and handle now missing. 7 Outside the coin in the grave, to the let of the head, probably put against the coin. 8, 10 On the botom of the coin to the right of the head. 9 In the coin, on the remains of the skull. 11 Outside the coin on the botom (?) of the grave, at the foot-end. 12 In the top illing, to the right of the coin. The exact altitude of its position is unknown. It cannot be excluded that the stilus does belong to the grave goods. Remark: As some altitude measurements are missing and others may be erroneous, the exact altitudes of the inds are uncertain.

Lengyel† G.F. IJzereef & J. Bonhof Tj. Pot† K.M. van Domburg & H.A.P. Veldman (investigations) D.C. Steures (text) I.A. Lengyel† G.F. IJzereef & J. Bonhof Tj. Pot† K.M. van Domburg & H.A.P. Veldman (investigations) D.C. Steures (text) Introduction The aim of this chapter is a reconstruction of the living population in the setlement on the Valkhof during the time of use of its two cemeteries. The main material of investigation is human bones, but where these are missing, archaeological means of estimating age at death and establishing sex have been used: male and female funerary atributes and, especially for children, sizes of coins or graves. Two causes almost prevented this aim from being atained: the condition of the human bones and the sad history of the investigations. Nevertheless, an atempt is made in this study to roughly estimate life expectancy at birth for cemetery OO and to construct mortality and survival curves on the basis of the same material (Graphs 1-2). Population size, which can be estimated using life expectancy at birth, the number of graves and the number of years of use of the cemetery, is calculated in the section Population size of Chapter 14, Interpretation. Life expectancy at birth as estimated in the present chapter and another, theoretical, value are used there in order to ind the lower and upper margins of the population size in the Valkhof setlement. The condition of the human bones The condition of the human bones in the acid matrix of the sand in the Nijmegen late Roman cemeteries is no less than disastrous. Lauwerier, writing about the animal bones from the graves of cemetery OO (1988, 76-7, repeated in Chapter 8 of the present study), puts it this way: ‘The human skeletal material gives a clear indication of how poorly bone has been preserved. In 35% of the graves no bone material is present any longer. In most of the other graves only a fragile bony pulp of the skull remains. Less than 10% of the graves contain fragments of both the skull and of the bones of the legs.’ Many of the graves showing a clear outline of the coin did not contain a trace, not even an outline, of the deceased. The reader should bear these remarks in mind while reading in the ind catalogue that parts of the skeleton were recognized: in many cases, it was this pulp of sand and some bone, which in very few cases could be taken out as solid objects. The length of the thicker long bones (humerus, femur, tibia) could be measured in only 7 out of 489 graves, i.e. just under 1.5%, in cemetery OO. Hardly ever the pelvis was (partly) present (in 23 out of a total of 1323 graves in cemeteries B and OO together, i.e. some 1.7%), and with it the main material for establishing sex is gone. All things considered, it is a miracle that so many morphological observations could be made at all. The column DEC (decomposition) in Table 3 and its legend give the details. Actually preserved bones may be found via Appendices 2A and 2B. The sad history of the investigations Bones from 118 graves in cemetery B are kept in the museum depot in Nijmegen, but they have not been studied morphologically: they escaped the notice of the present author up to December 2006. However, bone samples from 106 graves in cemetery B were apparently studied by the late Dr I.A. Lengyel. On the other hand, no less than four investigations into the human remains of cemetery OO have taken place in the 1980’s and later, two of which came to the notice of the present author only in August 2006. In the 1980’s: the late dr I.A. Lengyel performed biochemical analyses of 106 graves of cemetery B and 193 graves in cemetery OO; the late Mr Tj. Pot studied the teeth in JuneJuly 1985 and gave age determinations for 139 graves; Mr J. Bonhof, an amateur archaeologist who served as assisant to Dr G.F. IJzereef of the ROB, did a morphological study of the bones (without the teeth) in November-December 1985 and gave 85 age and 25 sex determinations. He worked alone in an ROB depot at Soesterberg. These three studies remained unpublished and two of them were forgoten. The present author, who did not take part in the excavations of either cemetery, took over the study of cemetery OO from Mr P.A.M. Zoetbrood in 1998. No papers concerning the study of the 239 — human bones were handed over then. A database with skeletal data, made by Mr Zoetbrood in the 1980’s and containing the results of these three unpublished investigations, remained unnoticed and without legenda until August 2006. Distrusting one and not knowing of the other two investigations, the writer of this chapter asked physical anthropologist dr Liesbeth Smits of the University of Amsterdam whether students of hers could investigate the bones of cemetery OO. Under her supervision, Marlous van Domburg and Anouk Veldman studied the bones, which are kept in some 30 boxes in the Nijmegen museum depot. They provided age determinations for the deceased in 89 graves and 46 determinations of sex (Domburg/Veldman 2001). When the results of Van Domburg and Veldman had been added to the abovementioned database (see Table 3), it appeared that they had not seen the teeth studied by Pot: they do not mention teeth in 66 of the graves for which Pot gives ages of the deceased. A chance remark by Mr Bonhof in 1985 on one of his score forms (OO 322: ‘Where has the skull gone?’) suggests that even he did not know of Pot’s investigations of a few months before. He did not indeed (Bonhof, pers.com. 2007). The conclusion had to be that the teeth had not been put back with the rest of the bones ater study, and that no message (‘the teeth have been taken out’) had been let in the ind boxes containing the remaining bones. The study of the teeth had taken place in the Utrecht University Institute of Human Biology, which ceased to exist September 1st, 1991. In October 2006, it appeared that the teeth of cemetery OO had been saved then and stored by the ROB, apparently without writen documentation about their presence. That same month, the teeth were brought back to Nijmegen in order to be reunited with the rest of the bones. None of the four investigating parties of cemetery OO ever saw all bones from all graves. Now let us turn to the four individual studies. Analyses by Dr I.A. Lengyel In the 1980’s, when cemetery OO was being excavated, new experimental methods for palaeoserological research had been recently introduced by the Hungarian biochemist Dr Imre A. Lengyel (Lengyel 1975, 1984). Some years later he extended his biochemical methods in order to obtain sex and age determinations. According to him, sex, age group at death, blood group and collagen type could be determined biochemically with similar methods, whatever the state of a sample of human bone. Samples from 193 graves in cemetery OO and 106 graves in cemetery B were studied by him; for every sample analysed he provided age and sex determinations. The only trace of Lengyel’s work on cemetery OO that has appeared in print is a igure of an unidentiied excavation trench in cemetery OO in Bloemers et al. (1981, 113, map centre below). The graves are coloured green (blood group A) or red (blood group B) and provided with a dot let or right, indicating the position of the head. In the caption to this map, the authors claim that blood group B is overrepresented in the graves with grave goods and with the head to the east, whereas the graves without grave goods and with the head to the west show an overrepresentation of blood group A. These authors suggest two groups of biologically diferent people. However, the present study, Chapter 14, Interpretation, shows the situation to be much more complicated than the incorrect equations ‘head E = grave goods; head W = no grave goods’. Moreover, all signs are that there is one culturally homogeneous group active in cemeteries B and OO, which changed its inhumation rituals during the fourth and ith centuries. Dr Lengyel’s determinations of age comprise all ages from 0 up to 70. The present author never saw lists writen by dr Lengyel, but was able to draw up a list of his analyses of 103 graves of cemetery B from the notes of the late Mr Simon Wynia, which notes form the main basis of the present ind catalogue of cemetery B. 240 — When the archaeological data were compared to Lengyel’s results, iteen inconsistencies were observed. The bones of at least six of the skeletons were so strongly decayed that they are not mentioned in Wynia’s notes: it was highly improbable that they could have yielded any results at all. Four others had grave/coin sizes which were not in agreement with the determinations of the skeletons as ‘adult’ or ‘child’. Three others had grave goods, which most probably disagreed with the sex determinations by Lengyel. For the last two of these iteen, in one case it was most probable that notes had been mixed up, while in the other Lengyel’s determination was countered by a determination as ‘youth’ by visual impression (Brunsting, unpublished note). Similar improbabilities in Lengyel’s results appeared to be present in the abovementioned database of cemetery OO, which put together the results of the three physical anthropological investigations performed in the 1980’s and the archaeological indicators of sex and age. Table 3, the core of which is the original data base, shows 74 cases of discrepancy between Lengyel’s judgement on age and the rest, as against 47 of unanimity (61:39%; discrepancy is indicated by italics in column ALE, unanimity by underscoring). As for sex, Lengyel’s judgements on sex are given for every sample analysed, as opposed to the sparse judgements of Bonhof, Van Domburg/ Veldman and archaeological indicators. It is only compared here in the twenty cases where the other judgements on the sex of the deceased are unanimous, with or without question marks. Lengyel’s judgement is diferent from the unanimity of the other judgements in 8 cases and the same in 12 (40:60%; diference is indicated by italics, identity by underscoring). This suggests that Lengyel’s method might not be all wrong, but that it was then too experimental to give reliable results. When I shared my doubts with physical anthropologist Dr Liesbeth Smits of the University of Amsterdam in 1997, she answered that analysis of blood groups had been contested for a long time and was no longer performed on archaeological material, as far as she knew. When I shared the same doubts with the Leyden physical anthropologist Dr George Maat in 1998, his answer was that Dr Lengyel at some time no longer believed in his own analyses and had stopped performing them. Dr Lengyel died tragically in 1992. His work has recently been taken up by Dr László Márk in Budapest (Márk 2002, 2004). Determinations by Mr Tj. Pot† An emeritus dentist and member of the Tooth and Mouth Diseases Group of Health Organisation TNO in Utrecht, the late Mr Tjeerd Pot was well equipped to investigate human teeth. Together with Dr Perizonius he developed a score form for dental remains (Perizonius 1983, 11630), which was later reined by Bouts and Pot (1989). A year before he deceased, Mr Pot (2004) wrote an unpublished autobiographical note, in which he described his palaeo-odontological work and method. For the dental remains of children, the development of their total deciduous and/or permanent dentitions (Ubelaker 1984) was used to determine their age at death. For adults, Pot used in the irst instance Brothwell’s (1981) atrition scheme to estimate age at death, but he added many improvements. He worked with Brothwell’s four atrition groups. According to Brothwell’s original scheme, Group I would contain the 18-25-year-old; II the individuals of 25-35; III those of 35-45; and IV those aged above 45 years. However, it had already been recognized by Brothwell that the age classes to be atached to the atrition groups are highly dependent upon the rate of atrition in the population studied. By using a sample of known age and sex and working with broad age groups having a small overlap, Constandse-Westermann (1997) demonstrated that in a population with a slower atrition rate, Atrition Group I contained the individuals of 22-30, Group II those of 25-50, 241 — Group III 45-70 and Group IV those aged above 65. Calibrating the data in this manner she obtained 80% correct age estimations. According to Pot’s results, cemetery OO contained 85.6% individuals in Atrition Group I, 11.7% in Group II, 2.7% in Group III and 0.0% in Group IV. This result is not a consequence of the manner in which the degree of atrition has been scored by Pot. A series of seventeen Dutch populations, all scored by him in exactly the same manner, shows clearly that his results are not biased towards any of the four atrition groups (Pot unpublished material, Constandse-Westermann unpublished material). Instead it indicates that the majority of the individuals buried at cemetery OO died at a young age. The total range of ages estimated by Pot is 2 years up to 45 according to Brothwell’s values = 70 years when calibrated along the lines of Constandse-Westermann 1997. These calibrated results, to be found in column APO (age according to Pot) in Table 3, agree with those of Bonhof and those of Van Domburg and Veldman in over 70% of the cases. Determinations by Mr J. Bonhof for Dr G.F. IJzereef Dr G.F. IJzereef wrote his PhD thesis on animal bones (IJzereef 1981). His name, however, does not igure in his 176 score forms, which were all illed in by his assistant Mr J. Bonhof. The score forms cover all graves with human bones preserved between the original grave numbers 1 and 303 of the 1980-1983 excavations around Nursing-home Margriet in cemetery OO. The morphological method by which Bonhof in November-December 1985 determined sex and age at death from human bones was that of a quick scan. Per grave, i.e. per individual, one single-sided form was illed in. Scores for sex were meant to be made on parameters of the skull, pelvis and other parts of the skeleton, but the score forms do not tell which parameters. The same goes for scores on age at death, taken from skull, dentition and post-cranial parts. The form has a schematic drawing of all skeleton parts on diferent scales and with four views of the skull. Preserved parts were indicated with black in this drawing. The form has a section for illing in the measurements of long bones, but lengths could be given in seven graves only. As this took place in November-December 1985, two years ater the excavations in cemetery OO had ended and six months ater Pot’s work on the teeth, the records show which skeleton parts had actually been taken out of the ground and had remained in the ind boxes ater the teeth had been taken out. The determinations by Bonhof comprise the ages from 10 years up to over 50. In other words: the ages of 0-9 years are not represented in his forms, the ages from 50 up to 80 years by one case only. Lauwerier (1988, 78-9, Table 24, columns sex and age of the human skeleton) gives results established by Bonhof for ten graves of cemetery OO, without however mentioning his name. Determinations by Marlous van Domburg and Anouk Veldman Ms Van Domburg and Ms Veldman kept meticulously score of every feature that would help in establishing age at death and used many diferent criteria and the respective tables to be found in the literature. This accounts for the many different age groups in their report: see column ADV (age according to Van Domburg and Veldman) in Table 3. However, their study is seriously impaired by the absence of most of the dental material, unknown to the authors. They were able to use the following indicators for age determination. For ages up to adult and beyond: closure of the cranial sutures; closure of the gaps between epiphyses and diaphyses; the ossiication of the dens axis on the second vertebra; Ubelaker’s (1984) scheme of dentition; synchondrosis in the lower part of the skull. For adult age: the complex method of Acsádi and Nemeskéri (1970), consisting of degenerative changes in the symphysis pubica, degeneration of the spongiosum of the proximal ends of femur and humerus, and obliteration of endocranial sutures; further, ex- 242 — ocranial suture obliteration, dental atrition and general degeneration. The range of the ages determined by them is 6 to 65/74 years. As for sex, hardly anything of the pelvis being preserved, they were able to use the following indicators on the skull: glabella, protuberantia occipitalis externa, processus mastoideus, crista supramastoidea, relief of the planum nuchale and tubera parietalia. The mandibulae being somewhere else, no indicators on the lower jaws could be used. Van Domburg and Veldman are extremely cautious on sex (2001, 8). In cases where only one physical indicator for sex is present, they put four question marks ater the M (for male) or F (for female); when there are two (mostly the processus mastoideus and one of the relief characteristics of the skull, almost no pelvises being available), they put ???; when there are two or three high values for sex characteristics (+2 for male, -2 for female), they put ??; when there are four or more highly valued sex characteristics, they put ?; when many sex characteristics have all high values for either male or female, they put an exclamation mark. Archaeological indicators As for the distinction between children and adults: coins up to 160 cm most probably contained children, it is argued in Chapter 14, Interpretation. The coin length of 110 cm has been taken as the arbitrary division between 0-5 years (up to 110 cm), and 6-10 years (111-160 cm). Where there is no coin trace, the grave lengths of 130 and 180 cm play the same role, allowing 20 cm for a body to it into the grave. Adolescents (11-20), who rapidly atain the body length of an adult, cannot be detected by this method: coins from 160 cm upwards and graves (without coin trace) from 180 cm upwards get J/A (juvenis/adult) in the column of archaeological age indicators (AAI) in Table 3. As for sex: in such uncertain circumstances of anthropological results, archaeological male and female atributes can be helpful. Many judgements on age standardized by using median years A physical anthropological study of a cemetery usually consists of one investigation, involving one set of age classes. In our case, we have several archaeological indicators plus four physical anthropological approaches, all on the basis of material incomplete by its nature and by the story of the investigation, all with diferent age classes. Therefore, they had to be standardized some way in order to be comparable: the median year of every judgement has been taken, calculated in the way to be explained below. An approach to life expectancy at birth for cemetery OO Whatever the diferences between the four physical anthropological studies, it is possible to calculate life expectancy at birth from each of the four sets of results separately. These values appear to be not too wide apart. For this calculation, the median value of the age span was established for every age determination given. Two instances: when the age determination given for a particular grave is 0-5 years, the time span runs the six years from the day of birth up to the sixth birthday; the median value for this age group is 0+6:2=3 (and not, as one would expect, 0+5:2=2.5). When it is 22-30 years (frequent, because it is the calibrated dental atrition group I), the time span is that of the nine years between the twenty-second and the thirty-irst birthday, and the average age is 22+9:2 = 26.5 years. When a determination only gives the minimum age and not the maximum, e.g. ‘22-’, the median value of its group has been taken, in this case 26.5 years for atrition group I. Life expectancy at birth usually is calculated for a given cohort, a year group. The two terms life expectancy at birth and the special use of cohort should be deined here for the purpose of our study. Life expectancy at birth of a given cohort is the total number of man years lived by that cohort, divided by the number of its members. For a cemetery, all people buried are together consi- 243 — dered one cohort. For an anthropological study of a cemetery, all individuals studied are together considered a sample of one cohort. So life expectancy at birth implicit in each of the anthropological studies of cemetery OO is the sum of the median ages established for that study, divided by the number of age determinations in that study. These calculations give the following results. For Lengyel’s study, the sum of the median ages at death is 5,279.5 years, and the number of determinations is 193, so the implicit life expectancy at birth there is 5,279.5:193=27.35 years. For the study of Bonhof, it is 2,240:85=26.35 years. For the study of Pot, with Constandse-Westermann’s calibrated values for Brothwell’s dental atrition groups, it is 3,686:139=26.51. For the study of Van Domburg and Veldman, the implicit life expectancy at birth is 2,804.5:89=31.51 years. The results of Lengyel’s study will not be used below. The average of the three values of the morphological studies is 28.03 years. The usual estimate of life expectancy at birth used for Roman Nijmegen and Germania Inferior/Germania Secunda is 25-30 years (Bloemers 1990, 76; cited by Buitendorp 2003, 207, n.11). Following the same line of thought as above, its median value is 25+6:2=28. The average value for life expectancy at birth, calculated above, of 28.03 years its in very well with this educated guess of 2530, i.e. 28.

As for age at death: 92 out of 266 graves of cemetery OO in Table 3 have two or more judgements on age at death. 54 of these have three judgements, including those found via the length of coin or grave in the case of children. 38 out of these graves, i.e. 70%, show an overlap in age determinations, whereas 16, i.e. 30%, do not. Where there are two age judgements on a grave, 35 out of 38, i.e. 92%, show an overlap, whereas 3, i.e. 8%, do not. As for sex: the study by Pot is the only one not to pronounce upon sex. The studies by Bonhof and Van Domburg/Veldman, as well as male and female dress accessories, do pronounce on sex. Not counting those by Lengyel and ignoring the question marks ater the leters F and M, 87 out of 266 graves of cemetery OO in Table 3 have one or more judgements on sex. On 62 graves with only one judgement, there are 33 women and 29 men. On 25 graves with two or more judgements, there are 8 women and 12 men, whereas 5 graves have not been counted, as they have contradictory judgements (OO 99, 222, 256, 347, 378). Men and women both add up to 41: as far as we can know, there seems to be a perfect balance. An approach to a survival curve for cemetery OO (Graphs 1-2) A survival curve shows the percentages of the cohort surviving at diferent ages, derived from a life table. In order to select the data for a survival table for cemetery OO, we remove the following four sets of unsatisfactory or missing data from Table 3: irstly, the columns of determinations by Lengyel; secondly, the rows representing 55 graves for which no median value for age at death can be established for lack of data; the grave numbers in column CAT of Table 3 are in italics; thirdly, the rows representing 24 graves for which the judgements on age at death are contradictory, i.e. they do not overlap; e.g. an adult in a very small grave is highly improbable; the causes being the absence of most of the dentitions during investigation of the rest of the bones and the fragmentary state of the bones; their grave numbers in column CAT of Table 3 are underscored; fourthly, in four graves where the quick scan of Bonhof gives a lower age (no overlap) than the agreement on age at death of Pot and Van Domburg/Veldman with their meticulous methods, Bonhof’s result is ignored (OO 48, 222, 299, 377). In the process of removal of these unsatisfactory data, the sample of graves from cemetery OO for the calculation of the survival table went down from 266 in Table 3 to 187 in Table 4. So the judgements used are: age determinations by Pot, in most cases Bonhof and Van Domburg/ Veldman and the lengths of small coins (up to 110 cm: 0-5 years; 111-159 cm: 6-10 years) or, lacking those, graves (up to 130 cm: 0-5; 131-179: 6-10 years). For each age determination, the median value has been taken, calculated as discussed above. In cases with more than one age determination, the average of the median values was used. The resulting ages at death were rounded of at complete years of life. This leads to the life table in Table 4 with columns AGE with rounded of years. In order to produce the mortality bar diagram of Graph 2, a 0 (zero) was put in the column headed N, which indicates the number of people deceased per year of life, for those years that did not yield an age at death. And in order to produce the uninterrupted survival curve of Graph 2, values were put in column % SUR for the same missing years, extrapolated between the two nearest values. 253 — Table 4: life table for cemetery OO.

There is a pronounced peak around the age of 27, when the number of survivors drops dramatically from 53.1 to 30.1%. The last peak is around the age of 38. Five strong people (2.7%) survive up to ages between 46 and 55. A usual peak is remarkably absent: that around the age of 20, when men are reckless and women give birth (Acsádi and Nemeskéri 1970, passim). The angular beginning of the survival curve in Graph 2 relects the artiicial determination of age at death on the basis of lengths of small cofins and graves, almost no children’s bones being available. Seventy percent of the population had died before it could reach the age of 28. This was a population consisting of many young people and a few old ones. Their outlook on life was, supposing they kept count of their age: 50% chance to survive up to the age of 26, 10% chance to reach 36, and 5% to grow really old, up to over 50. Comparison to similar populations As this chapter was being writen, Liesbeth Smits of the University of Amsterdam published data from Krefeld-Gellep (Smits 2006a). Her thesis (Smits 2006b) treats four cemetery populations from the limes of Germania Inferior in the Early and Middle Roman times: Valkenburg-Marktveld near Praetorium Agrippinae, AD I-II: 520 cremations, 134 inhumations; Nijmegen-Museum Kamstraat near the Nijmegen Augustan legionary fortress, AD 30-70 (= G.M. Kam’s cemetery E on Fig. 2, the street then being named Eleonorastraat): 131 cremations, part of a much larger complex; Moers-Asberg, the vicus near the auxiliary fortress of Asciburgium: 89 and 94 cremations from the N and S cemeteries, respectively, AD I-II; KrefeldGellep, near the auxiliary fortress Gelduba: 670 cremations, AD I-III. Her conclusions were that child mortality was high and that most of the adults died in the age of 20-40 years (Smits 2006, 48, 77, 101, 118, 188). The clearest results are those for Krefeld-Gellep: more than half the population died between 20 and 40, 22% reached an age between 40 and 60, and over 7% got older than 60 (Smits 2006b, 118). A larger sample of 906 cremations from KrefeldGellep of AD I-IV date (Smits 2006a, 583) gave the following results. The ratio children:adults was 10.5:89.5%. 58.8% died between the ages of 20 and 40, 29% reached an age between 40 and 60, and 1.5% got older than 60 years. The survival rate in the fourth-century Nijmegen cemetery OO seems at irst sight markedly lower than those of the four cemeteries studied by Smits. This may relect the unsatisfactory preservation of inhumations in the Nijmegen sand and the sad history of the investigations, rather than a real high mortality in peaceful Nijmegen of the fourth century. For instance: ages found by Van Domburg and Veldman were rejected in the process of selecting satisfactory data (graves OO 26, 48, 99, 118, 249, 272, 290, 302, 306, 315, 356, 431) because they were higher, sometimes much higher, than the other judgements on the same graves. There are, however, two marked diferences that argue for a really lower survival rate. Firstly, we already saw that 85.6% of the deceased in Table 3, column APO (age according to Pot), belonged to dental atrition group I, i.e. they died between the ages of 22 and 30. This is expressed by the peak at the age of 27 in the mortality bar diagram of Graph 1 and the corresponding steep drop of the survival curve in Graph 2. Secondly, not a single instance of dental atrition group IV (age 65 and higher) was found in the Nijmegen material. This fourth-century population really seems to have died younger than the ones from the irst to the third centuries in the same area. What caused this higher mortality remains in the dark. The only explanation that springs to mind is the bad economic circumstances of the fourth century, which also resulted in the eight coin periods given in Chapter 3, Table 1. 8 Food as gravegits R.C.G.M. Lauwerier Introduction Almost all food remains from cemetery Nijmegen-East (OO), previously named cemetery ‘Margriet’, have been discussed in Lauwerier 1983 and 1988 (76-85). One ind was described later (Lauwerier 1999). In order to have all data of the late Roman cemeteries of Nijmegen in one volume, the 1988 text is partly presented here again. However, text, numbers and tables have been extensively adapted in order to it into the present study, and the 1999 ind is added. The data about the sex and age of the buried humans presented in the 1983 and 1988 publications are replaced by more reliable data (see Chapter 7, The living population), and some thoughts about diferent kinds of meat as ‘food for the dead’ have been replaced by those from a later study (Lauwerier 1993). In addition archaeozoological data from cemetery Inner City (B) (Lauwerier 1999) have been included. On both the east and the west side of the fourthcentury fortiication on the Valkhof cemeteries have been found that most probably belong to the setlement. The eastern burial ground, cemetery OO, was partly excavated in the years 19801983. It is estimated that this cemetery contained some 1590 graves, 489 of which have been excavated; these were almost exclusively inhumation graves. In some graves dishes were found containing animal bones as gits for the dead (partly discussed previously: Lauwerier 1983). As material for archeozoological investigation usually only the remains of meals are available: garbage and refuse of meals in the past. The interesting thing about the bone material from the cemetery is that we are not dealing with the garbage and refuse but with the meal itself: a sort of plate-service for the dead. Dishes and bones During the excavation of cemetery OO, 489 graves were found, 73 of which contained items of pottery on which one could expect to ind bones: plates, dishes, bowls and one cooking-pot. Although during the excavation of the graves bones were oten observed on the plates, dishes and bowls, the contents of only a few have remained preserved, on account of the very unfavourable conditions for preservation in the sandy soil of the cemetery. Even a slight touch caused the bones to disintegrate into dust. The human skeletal material gives a clear indication of how poorly bone has been preserved. In 35% of the graves no bone material is present any longer. In most of the other graves only a fragile bony pulp of the skull remains. Less than 10% of the graves contain fragments of both the skull and of the bones of the legs. The animal bones from cemetery B are also badly preserved and fragmented. The contents of a few plates, dishes and bowls from cemetery OO were treated with a preservative during the excavation, in order to preserve them as far as possible prior to archeozoological analysis (Table 5, nos. 14-23). The contents of these plates, dishes, and bowls and those from cemetery B will be discussed further below. A summary of the data is given in Table 5. The percentages mentioned in the table under the contents recovered indicate approximately the proportion of the contents of the dishes, i.e. of the undisturbed soil containing the bones that were conserved during the excavation. 255 — 256 — Table 5: Nijmegen, cemeteries Nijmegen-East (OO) and Inner City (B): overview of the potery that has been studied. x: presence of animal species established; sex and age according to Bonhof (BO), Van Domburg & Veldman (DV) and Pot (PO) or on the basis of the dimension of the coin (for details see Chapter 7, The living population).

OO 101.6b Domestic fowl (?): articulated parts of ulna, radius and humerus, probably from a domestic fowl. Three large unidentiiable fragments could be parts of the hind legs. Also a lot of bird rib fragments are present. The position of the articulated bones of the wing, the unidentiiable long bones and the fragments of ribs strongly suggest that we are concerned here with the bones of one complete bird that was interred in an intact state. 3 OO 144.1 with 1a Terra sigillata plate Gellep 41 (= Chenet 313). 25% of the original illing intact.

OO 168.3a Domestic fowl: almost complete articulated skeleton. Missing parts are the head, the right femur, the right foot and the let leg. If this leg was present, it most probably lay on the broken and cleaned fragment of the dish. It is remarkable that the dish was made in the 2nd or 3rd century AD and was placed in a grave only much later (personal communication J.H.F. Bloemers). 7 OO 186.5 with 5a and 5b Coarse dish Gellep 128. 100% of the original illing intact. OO 186.5a Domestic fowl: articulated skeleton. Clearly identiiable are the two humeri, the right ulna, a phalanx, fragments of the vertebral column, ribs, the sternum, parts of the pelvis and the two femora. Also unidentiiable fragments were found, including parts of long bones.

The distal epiphysis is fused, but because the bone is very small the age of the animal at the time of slaughter would not have been much more than one year.

They proved to contain only earth, no bones. Cemetery B 24 B 86.3 with 3a Coarse dish Gellep 128.

On the basis of bone inds in the cemetery in Courroux, Bechert (1982, 284) proposes that the dead were supplied with second-rate meat while the funeral guests kept the choicest pieces for themselves. The inds from cemeteries OO and B give a diferent impression. That we are dealing here with meals and not with the refuse of meals is best illustated by the articulated skeletons of domestic fowl. One can only ind articulated skeletons if complete animals have been buried from which edible parts have not been cut of. For the two best conserved skeletons of domestic fowl from the graves OO 168 and OO 186, and also for the inds from the graves B 86, B 150 and B 191, it is striking that there are no traces of the head and the inedible parts of the hind legs. This brings to mind the well known picture of a fried chicken, from which the head and feet have been cut of. From Roman times too there are examples of such a way of preparing fowl. The ornamented bronze lid, probably of a vessel for food, from Mundelsheim from the 2nd or 3rd century AD, is one such example (Fig. 1). The fowl is presented on the border of the lid: the head and the ends of the hind legs have been cut of. Also represented are a ring of piglets and, lanked by grapes, a hare. Fowls prepared in this way are also known from the cemeteries of Leuna, Wessling, Neuburg and Kempten (Gandert 1953; Keller 1971, 1979; Mackensen 1978). Fig. 1 The bronze lid from Mundelsheim (Germany) showing rings of fowl and piglets and in the centre a hare (Würtembergisches Landesmuseum Stutgart). In Nijmegen a humerus of a sucking pig was found on two occasions, this being indicative of good quality meat (graves OO 354 and OO 356). Also heads of sucking pigs have been found (graves OO 101 and OO 144.6). Nowadays we tend to consider the meat of this part of the animal to be of poorer quality, but there are indications in writen sources that this kind of meat in fact was a delicacy in Roman times. Macrobius (3,13,12) tells about a banquet that Lentullus offered his guests in about 70 BC on the occasion of his ordination as a priest. Besides oysters, thrushes with asparagus, fried hare and fowl also fried heads of pigs were served. But pig’s head is also known to have been a delicacy in later times, as in medieval and Tudor England (Wilson 1973, 82). And in the folk tale of Uilenspiegel, as placed by De Coster (1867) in 16thcentury Flanders, Lamme complains that he has to live on bread and water while the nobility feast on head of wild boar, among other things (III,29). All in all, the dishes from Nijmegen on which bone remains were found give the impression 261 — that food was placed in the graves that was not second-rate or the refuse of a meal (of, for example, the funeral guests), having only a symbolical meaning, but rather a good meal for the dead. In view of the small number of inds it is hard to discern any relation between the ages of the deceased persons and the meals they were given. All that can be said is that the dead of all ages, children as well as adults, were provided with meat of catle, pig and fowl as a grave git. In Courroux birds were found exclusively in the graves of women. From this it has been concluded that they were speciically grave-gits for women (Martin-Kilcher 1976). Wahl and Kokabi (1987, 1988) make the same suggestion based on information about Stetfeld and Konstanz. The information from Nijmegen about this subject is very scarce. Only one grave (OO 356) of which the sex of the human skeleton could be established (probably a woman) contained identiied animal bones: a young pig. However, if the data upon which these suggestions is based on is studied in more detail, no diferences in the frequencies of the occurrence of chicken in female or male graves can be established (Lauwerier 1993). The other potery of cemetery OO that was studied shows no traces of bones at all. From this it could possibly be concluded that no boned meat was given in these cases. Yet if we consider the human skeletal material, we see that human remains were found in only one grave. Evidently the conditions for preservation in the graves were so poor that no conclusions at all can be drawn from the inds of empty items of potery in cemeteries OO and B. The relation between the setlement and the cemetry It is obvious that we should compare the bone material from cemeteries OO and B with that from the stronghold on the Valkhof (Lauwerier 1988, section 3.3.2). Comparing these two sets of bone material, we can see that the values for frequency of occurrence of bones of catle, sheep/goat, pig and domestic fowl are completely diferent at the two sites. Unfortunately, however, the number of identiiable inds from the cemeteries is so small (17) that no conclusion whatsoever can be drawn from this comparison. In order to make a more meaningful comparison between animal bones from setlements and those from cemeteries, archeozoological data have been collected relating to 27 setlements and 20 cemeteries or individual graves within the Roman Empire. For the cemeteries a random selection has been made from the available literature in which faunal material is mentioned, from sites in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Austria and Switzerland (Table 6). These include the early Roman cemeteries in Kempten (Mackensen 1978), Weisenau (Kessler 1927) and Brugg (Tomašević and Hartmann 1972); cemeteries dating from mid-Roman times in Höraing (Gerhardt and Maier 1964), Eining (Kellner 1965), Stephanskirchen (mentioned in Kellner 1965), Regensburg (Mackensen 1973) and Courroux (Martin-Kilcher 1976; Kaufmann 1976); late Roman cemeteries in Krefeld-Gellep (Pirling 1974), Neuburg (Keller 1971), Neuss (Härke 1980; Reichstein 1980), Augsburg, Göggingen, Burgheim, Valley, Potzham, Altenstadt, Wessling (Keller 1971), Oudenburg (Mertens and Van Impe 1971) and the cemeteries in Nijmegen described above. In the table no distinction has been made between animals or parts of animals that were found on dishes or plates and those that were simply placed in the grave. Possibly a few bones are present that accidentally came into the grave together with the earth used to cover the remains of the deceased. As in the great majority of cases the faunal material was described as clearly belonging to the grave, this will hardly inluence the overall picture of the occurrence of the various kinds of animals interred. The numbers shown in the table indicate the frequency with which the animal species occur in the graves. In the case of one grave containing fau- 262 — Table 6: Overview of the occurrence of catle, sheep/goat, pig and domestic fowl in graves within the northwestern part of the Roman Empire.

Pig is the most abundant species, with a frequency of 63%, followed by domestic fowl at 25%. Catle and sheep/goat account for only 7 and 5%, respectively. In addition to the species mentioned in the table other species occur incidentally: horse in Oudenburg, dog in Neuss and Courroux, hare or rabbit in Höraing, goose in Courroux and Oudenburg, eider duck (Somateria mollissima) in Neuss, ish in Weisenau and oyster in Oudenburg. The few fragments of horse and dog that have been found in graves probably cannot be considered as representing food for the dead as these species were not normally eaten in Roman times (Luf 1982). Martin-Kilcher (1976) indicates the possibility that dog may have been provided as a companion for the journey to the hereater. As an indication of this she mentions the presence of a ceramic igure of a dog in one of the three graves in Courroux that contained dog remains. Table 7: General overview of the occurrence of catle, sheep/goat, pig and domestic fowl in setlement refuse in the Roman Empire Species Mean percentage distribution of the number of fragments Catle 60 Sheep/goat 13 Pig 26 Domestic fowl 2 Table 7 gives an overview of the setlement refuse of the most frequently consumed mammals and the domestic fowl in Roman times. The table includes data from 27 sites where a total number of more than 100 bone fragments of catle, sheep or goat, pig and domestic fowl have been found. The sites concerned are of both civilian and military setlements in the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, France and Switzerland (Clason 1977, Tables 15 and 18). The table gives the mean percentage distribution of the number of bone fragments. This overall picture of the species composition in all the setlements considered jointly corresponds more or less to the frequency spectra within the individual settlements (Clason 1977, 126). The data from the setlements and the cemeteries cannot be directly compared because they express diferent quantities, namely numbers of fragments and the numbers of individual animals respectively. This problem is a consequence of the diferent ways of presentation of the bone material in the literature consulted, that is partly accounted for by the diferent nature of the objects excavated. In a self-contained structure like a grave it is more sensible and more meaningful to indicate individuals than in the refuse pits of a setlement. However, this diference in presentation does not prevent us from gaining insight on a broad scale into the diferences between setlements and cemeteries. The most conspicuous diferences are as follows. Catle, that are represented in the setlements by 60% of the fragments, are found in very small quantities in the cemeteries, certainly if one compares the mammal species with one another. Among the mammals, sheep/goat comes in third place in both the setlements and in the cemeteries, although the percentage for the settlements is higher than that for the cemeteries. The domestic fowl, that rates 2% in the setlements, is the second most abundant animal in the cemeteries. The above-mentioned diferences can partly be explained by diferent methods of excavating cemeteries and setlements. If the cemeteries have been excavated more meticulously than the setlements or if sieving has been carried out (something that is not mentioned in most of the publications concerning the cemeteries), then it is possible that notably the quantitative diference in domestic fowl remains may be explained as a result of this (Clason and Prummel 1977; Clason et al. 1979). That the diferences for 264 — mammals can also be atributed to diferent excavation techniques seems unlikely. If this were indeed the case, then one would expect that in addition to pig also sheep/goat, that fall into the same size class, would score higher, yet this is not so. The low numbers of bird remains in the setlements may also be due to gnawing by dogs. Yet this does not explain the diference in occurrence of mammals between the setlements and the cemeteries. Table 8: Frequency distributions of catle, sheep/goat, pig and domestic fowl in settlements, cemeteries and the cookery book of Apicius/Caelius. Catle Setlements Cemeteries Apicius 60 7 4 Sheep/goat 13 5 12 Pig 26 63 50 Domestic fowl 2 25 34 Another explanation can be taken from the cookery book of Apicius. In Table 8 the data of the Tables 6 and 7 are presented alongside the frequencies with which the diferent animal species are mentioned in the cookery book of Apicius/Caelius. This cookery book dates from the 1st century AD. It was writen by the well-to-do gastronome Apicius, and in the form of the book that is known to us, may have been revised by a certain Caelius at the end of the fourth century or beginning of the ith century (Forbes 1965). For the quantitative data concerning the occurrence of the various animal species in the cookery book the English translation of Flower and Rosenbaum (1958) has been used. In addition to the species listed in the igure, namely catle, sheep/goat, pig and domestic fowl, in the cookery book there is occasional mention of a great number of other species: wild sheep, wild goat, red deer, fallow deer, boar, rabbit, hare, dormouse, goose, duck, hazel hen, partridge, pheasant, peacock, crane, ostrich, parrot, pigeon, wood-pigeon, turtle dove, thrush, ig-pecker, lamingo, electric ray, murena, eel, conger eel, anchovy, scorpion ish, perch, sea-perch, sea-bream, gold-bream, dentex, red mullet, grey mullet, horse mackerel, tunny ish, bonito, sole, sheatish, ‘cornuta’, prawn, sea-crayish, squill, lobster, squid, cutleish, octopus, mussel, oyster, snail, sea urchin and jelly-ish. Again it must be pointed out that the frequency percentages in Table 8 cannot be directly compared with those for the cemeteries and setlements. In the table diferent quantitative categories stand alongside one another: numbers of fragments for the setlements, numbers of individuals for the cemeteries and the number of times a species is mentioned in the cookery book. However, if we compare, in a general way, the data from the graves with those from the setlements and that from the cookery book, we could conclude that the reason so many chicken and pig bones are found in graves is because the meat spectrum present in graves compares most readily with that used in a luxurious cookery book. So, the dead were not provided with ordinary, everyday food but with something more festive. Another explanation for the fact that so many chicken and pigs are found in cemeteries is perhaps more obvious (Lauwerier 1993). Except for when a illet or ragout of chicken is put in the grave, the meat would normally always still be on the bone. The same can be said for pork, the top scorer in the cemeteries. Many recipes using pork include the bone. Recipes made of sucking pig, regularly found in graves, always contain bone and by so doing, always leave evidence. Recipes using beef are, however, totally diferent. In contrast to pig and chicken, the meat is cut of the bones, thereby leaving no remains in a grave if the beef was placed on a plate (cf. Mackensen 1978, 173). The frequent occurrence of chicken and pig bones in graves may well, therefore, give a false picture of past reality. It is not unlikely that the empty or half empty plates found in graves may have contained beef. The information from the plates seems to be very clear, but the rubbish pits in the 265 — setlements, containing the ofal and discarded remains of meals, give a much more reliable picture of the consumption patern of the living, than do the plates and dishes in the graves for the “consumption” patern of the deceased. 266 — 9 Plant remains from grave B 29 Corrie Bakels The Roman grave known as B 298 has revealed more than the personal ornaments, coins, two beakers, a pair of scales, parts of a leather purse, a boar’s tusk and sea shells. It also contained plant remains. Their presence came more or less as a surprise, because plants are hardly to be expected in an inhumation grave above ground water level. Normally they decay rather quickly. In this case, however, they were preserved because of close contact with grave goods made of bronze. There are three kinds of remains. The irst kind concerns rhizomes of a horsetail species (Equisetum spec.). These underground parts may have intruded the grave at any stage ater the burial and are not considered to belong to the gravegoods. Horsetails are very weedy plants and their rhizomes penetrate deep into the soil. The second kind of remains consists of very thin pieces of wood. C. Vermeeren identiied this wood as radially split from a deciduous tree species. The wood had characteristics as seen in Pomoidea, poplar (Populus), hazel (Corylus) or alder (Alnus). They are presumably natural. Especially alder roots are known to split up like this during decay. Therefore the wood may not belong to the gravegoods either. The third kind of remains are, however, considered to belong to the original contents of the grave. These inds comprise large fragments of one or two nuts of sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Miller). Only the pericarp has been preserved, but the nuts were originally placed as complete specimens in the grave. Finds of sweet chestnut are rare. The nearest inds up till present are from a cremation grave from the 1st century in Kempten (Germany), from the Roman harbour in Straubing (Germany), from the ill of a water well in a Roman villa in Boreham (Essex, England), in the temple of Isis in Pompeii and in sacriicial contexts in other Vesuvian locations (Willerding 1978, Küster 1992, Murphy 2003, Overbeck and Mau 1884, Meyer 1994, Materne and Derreumaux 2007). Possible remains have been reported from Roman cremation graves in the French Massif Central (Bouby and Marinval 2004). The rareness of the nut may be atributed to its poor chance of preservation. A carbonized sweet chestnut is very fragile and from a waterlogged chestnut only fragments of the pericarp will survive and these are not easily to identify. The nuts are known as components of Roman meals. The Roman cook Apicius presents a recipe. It is quite possible that the chestnuts in grave B 298 represent food for the dead. There may have been more of them, and also other kinds of plant food, but if this was not deposited next to something of bronze, this food will not have been preserved. But it is also feasible that they are more than just food. Some fruits and seeds had, next to their place on the table, also a place in rituals. This is, for instance, known of dates, igs, and pinecones and their kernels (Zach 2002, Hänninen and Vermeeren 1997). It would not be surprising if sweet chestnut belonged in this category as well. The tree was introduced in northwestern Europe, the Netherlands included, by the Romans, as is attested by its pollen. It may have been planted because of the pleasure of the consuming of chestnuts, but it is possible, too, that the tree was needed for other purposes, such as poles and stakes. The plant remains are kept in the Collection Laboratory for Archaeobotany, Faculty of Archaeology, Leiden University. 10 Roman textiles from Cemetery OO G.M. Vogelsang-Eastwood The inds consist of a small group of textiles from three loci. One of the textiles is extremely small, less than 0.5 cm, while the largest is nearly 8.0 cm in size. The condition of the textiles is poor. The fragments are very britle and are semi-carbonized. The objects are of interest because they represent various types of weaves and give an indication of the type of textile technology to be found in the region at this time. There is no indication that these textiles were imported pieces (type of ibre, spin, weave, and so forth). Based on the inds from other contemporary and near contemporary Roman sites, it is clear that these pieces are acceptable parts of the textile horizon of this area and date. The inds OO 242.8 This ind is made up of four largish and several small lumps of carbonized organic material. On one piece there are traces of what appears to be a weave, but under a microscope, it would appear that it is an organic material which has deteriorated in narrow strips (leather?) OO 366.3 The ind is made up of two textiles, the irst textile (a) is a large fragment made up of several layers of cloth. The second textile (b) is somewhat smaller and was apparently resting on the irst piece. It would appear that they are from the same length of cloth. The cloth is now carbonized. There are areas of green on the material which would appear to be a copper deposit from another object, rather than indicating the use of a dye or pigment. Fibre: animal? Size: (a) 7.7 x 3.5 (b) 3.8 x 2.3 cm. Spin: z/z (some paired threads, this may relect a weaving fault rather than the deliberate use of paired threads). Twist: medium/medium. Count: 24 in the presumed warp; 16 in the presumed wet. Weave: 1/2 twill (it should be noted that no selvedges are present so it is not clear whether it is actually a 1/2 or a 2/1 twill. Nevertheless, the presence of plied threads in one direction indicates that this was the wet, and thus a 1/2 twill form. In one area of the web there is evidence of the use of thicker thread (S,3?z) which appears to turn back on itself. However, due to the poor condition of the cloth at this point, this detail is not clear. Use: There is no indication of how this cloth may have originally been used. OO 366.4 This ind is made up of a single textile which is now light brown in colour. There is no indication of any colour or decoration. The size of the object makes it very diicult to draw any conclusions about the nature of this ind. Fibre: animal? Size: 2.0 x 1.8 cm. Spin: z/z. Twist: loose. Count: c.12 in the presumed warp; 22 in the presumed wet. Weave: wet(?)-faced tabby weave. Use: There is no indication of how this cloth may have originally been used. Other textiles are discussed in Chapter 13, Atributes for both genders/Organic/Textile remains. 267 — 268 — 11 Typology of the potery and glass vessels Introduction In this study, it is emphatically not the intention to present yet another typology. This chapter is meant to give an up-to-date overview of what we know from the archaeological literature about the objects found in the Nijmegen Late Roman cemeteries; and to apply that knowledge to the inds presented here. Gellep typology For Roman potery and glass vessels, wherever possible, the typology of the Late Roman cemetery of Krefeld-Gellep, Gellep for short, has been followed. Most of that cemetery was excavated and published by Renate Pirling in her studies of 1966, 1974, 1979, 1989, 1997 and 2003. In 2006, Pirling and Siepen published the complete Roman typology of Gellep, and more emphatically than before they have the type numbers preceded by the place name Gellep. The present study follows this example. For those who prefer the type numbers of Chenet (1941) for the Argonne terra sigillata and the glass type numbers of Isings (1957), this number is added in parentheses: Gellep 16 (= Chenet 335a); Gellep 700 (= Isings 68). Four earlier types, surviving as heirlooms in the Late Roman cemeteries of Gellep and Nijmegen and beter known under a diferent name, are given this beter-known name as the second name ater their Gellep names: Gellep 37 (= Dragendorf 18/31; type ig. 29); Gellep 248 (= Drag. 27; type ig. 15); Gellep 550 (= Drag. 33; type ig. 14); and Gellep 31 (= Drag. 40; type ig. 23). This second name is also given in the captions to the type igures. In the same way, Niederbieber type numbers are added for third-century shapes, and an Alzei type number for a shape that lived on in the ith century. As for glass types known from Trier (Goethert-Polaschek 1977), these names are likewise added in text and captions as Trier. In her 1966 study, Pirling (1966, 42-5) deined the Roman potery wares, numbered A-G. In her 1997 study, she gives the completed list, now without deinitions but with short paraphrases (Pirling 1997, 131-2). This latest list is repeated below; wherever potery wares were on second thought dropped in 2006, this is mentioned in the list below. Pirling’s classiication ater these wares is followed, as is her order of shapes within each ware: pots, beakers, botles, one-handled jugs, double-handled jugs (in the present study, the term amphora is exclusively used for the large transport vessels and for a miniature model of such an amphora), small bowls, bowls, dishes, plates. Lids did not occur in Pirling’s irst study; they appear here ater what they cover. Problems in the Gellep typology Several problems are connected to the Gellep typology: type numbers, the Trier beakers, terra nigra, and the glazed ware in Gellep. Problem 1: type numbers Firstly: many of the Gellep types could not, up to 2006, be used without further ado. Since her irst study (Pirling 1966), in which she deined the types Gellep 1-239, Pirling has added more than six hundred types (in Pirling 1974: Gellep 240-311; Pirling 1979: Gellep 312-340; Pirling 1989: Gellep 341-543; Pirling 1997: Gellep 544717; Pirling 2003: Gellep 718-869). If one puts the types distinguished per potery ware and shape in a series, the result is a motley row of numbers, as can be seen on Plates 1-48 in Pirling/Siepen (2006). Whoever wants to consult Pirling/Siepen (2006) with type numbers in mind must irst make an index, because such an index is regrettably missing. This inconvenience is circumvented in the present study by two measures. Firstly, captions on the present type plates are numbered 1...236, ater which the Gellep type number is given. These igure numbers return in the margin of the section in which the type is discussed. Secondly, the index in Appendix 3 gives the type numbers in the present study in alfabetical and numerical order, with caption number and date of the type. Problem 2: the Trier beakers More serious is the second problem. Pirling (1966, 69-71) does not even try to deine types 269 — within the most frequent category of the cemeteries of Gellep (and Nijmegen), that of the ine dark coloured beakers with narrow foot, globular body and high conical neck. She groups these in her types 58-62, without distinguishing 59-62 from one another and even confounding the drawings of her types 60 and 61 (Pirling/ Siepen 2006, 89, n. 88; 90, n. 92). The problem is not solved in Pirling/Siepen (2006), where very short descriptions of the now many types leave the user with the question, in which of the types he must classify his own inds. Moreover, in her irst study very few ine dark coloured botles, jugs and bowls with painted decoration occur. Fortunately, two monographs appeared in the nineties of the twentieth century which supply this information: R.P. Symonds’ Rhenish Wares, Fine Dark Coloured Potery from Gaul and Germany (1992) for all ine dark coloured potery, and Die Trierer Spruchbecherkeramik by Suzanna Künzl (1997) for the ine dark coloured potery with white (and sometimes some yellow) decoration. Therefore, Pirling’s type numbers Gellep 58-62 and others, and those for other decorated ine dark coloured potery are not used in the present study, and replaced by Symonds’ group numbers for the undecorated ine dark coloured beakers, and Künzl’s shape numbers for the decorated beakers, botles, jugs and bowls. In the case of the most frequent decorated dark coloured beakers, Künzl 1.4.1, a further distinction seemed appropriate: addition of an m indicates a beaker with moto; addition of the leter d, a beaker with decoration but without moto. In the paragraphs dedicated to these small beakers below, Künzl’s classiication of this ware in chronological groups I-V is discussed. In the case of the far more frequent undecorated ine dark coloured beakers a further distinction has also been made according to the way the poter used his spatula. This subdivision is discussed in the section on Symonds 61, below (type igs. 48-53). Besides all this detail, atention should also go to the overall development. Künzl 1.4.1 and Sy- monds 61 are two out of six types of the ine dark coloured beaker from Trier with its narrow foot, globular body and high conical neck. Both Symonds (1992, 66) and Künzl (1997, 19-22) discuss it as their irst shape. Within this shape, there are not only ive chronological groups, identiied by Künzl, and six types, presented by Symonds and Künzl, but also six size groups are distinguished below. Types and size groups overlap in some cases. This will be discussed below, under potery ware C4, under the heading The Trier beakers. Problem 3: terra nigra The most intricate problem in the Gellep typology is that of potery ware F7, terra nigra, both in assigning Gellep types to that ware and in assigning a date or dates to the ware as a whole. Terra nigra is not deined in Pirling/Siepen (2006, 174). I deine it as smoothened, burnished or even polished potery with litle or no tempering material, ired in a reducing atmosphere, sometimes smothered in order to obtain a black colour; it usually has a sheen, but no coating is present; the colour of a clean break is usually the same as that of the surface. The insight that several Gellep types do belong to potery ware F7, terra nigra, came slowly: in Pirling/Siepen 2006, types that were irst treated under diferent wares (C2 and C3, now both dropped) have now been listed under the heading F7, terra nigra (2006, 174-191). Other types have simply disappeared. Thus, beaker Gellep 15 was irst called terra sigillata, ware B1 (Pirling 1966, 56), and is now called terra nigra (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 179). Footed bowl Gellep 51 (Pirling 1966, 67-8) belonged to ware C2 (grey sherd, lustrous black coating). The ware was dropped in Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 84) and Gellep 51 is no longer mentioned. The same shape was deined Gellep 131a (large) and 131b (small) in Frankish ware B (smoothened potery ired in reducing atmosphere; Pirling 1966, 128-30). Gellep 51 and 131ab have disappeared from Pirling/Siepen 2006 and their places are apparently taken by the larger 270 — Gellep 252 and the smaller Gellep 274 (Pirling/ Siepen 2006, 188-9) of potery ware F7, terra nigra. Decorated footed bowl Gellep 273 was, like Gellep 274, irst listed under F5 (bluish grey sherd: Pirling 1974, 57) and now under F7, terra nigra. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 174) retains three types in ware F5, bluish grey sherd, without explaining the diference with F7, terra nigra. Globular pots Gellep 52 and 53 (Pirling 1966, 68) irst belonged to ware C3 and now to F7, terra nigra (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 180). As for the question of date of terra nigra, this is not discussed in Pirling/Siepen (2006, 174-91), and the answer must be gathered from the dates given there for individual Gellep types. There appear to be four chronological groups, divided by quarter-centuries that each have only one type: these dividing periods are Ic (= the third quarter of the 1st century AD), IIc, and IIIb: see Table 9. The late group is dated IIIc-Va, has a clear peak in IVAB (= the irst two-thirds of the 4th century) and has some later types, given in bold in Table 9. The conclusion must be that the art of making terra nigra was never lost through four hundred years at least, but that it was especially popular from the late irst century to the irst half of the second, and in the irst two-thirds of the fourth. Table 9: Chronological groups of terra nigra in the Gellep typology. Type numbers in italics indicate types that completely fall within the limits of the IVAB peak. Bold type numbers indicate types dated in their entirety later than that peak. Group Date Types Earliest Iab 352 449 454 630 Divider Early Divider Middle Divider Late Ic 651 Id-IIb 432 446 453 649 650 651 652 655 775 781 783 788 868 IIc 644 IId-IIIa 448 644 645 867 IIIb 867 IIIc-Va 15 52 53 54 93 94 95 96 252 269 270 271 272 273 274 450 451 452 641 646 774 779 864 865 866 869 Problem 4: association with glazed ware in Gellep Glazed potery, frequently occurring in Gellep but never in Nijmegen (see below), is oten used by Pirling to date other types. When the idea about its date changes, other dates change with it. So, though glazed potery is absent from Nijmegen, its date is important to other types that do occur in Nijmegen. The idea about its date shits indeed between the Gellep publications of Pirling and that of Pirling/Siepen (2006). Pirling (1966, 50-55; 1974, 30-34; 1979, 29-32) dates almost all Gellep glazed types to IVB; only Gellep 11 is dated by an associated coin of AD 326, and Gellep 243 and 244 are dated to IVAB. So it comes as a surprise that Pirling/Siepen (2006, 37) writes that the lead-glazed potery of Gellep suddenly comes up around AD 320 and was available until the middle of the fourth century (apparently the year AD 350), the latest associated coin being (incorrectly) dated AD 341. But, Pirling/Siepen (2006, 38) adds, some glazed pieces were kept as heirlooms because of their rarity and got into graves of IVcd date. Coin dates will help solve this problem. The rules for using coin dates have been set out in Chapter 3: there are eight coin periods in the 4th century, summed up in Table 1; the Nijmegen coins show that they could survive no longer than into the next coin period; so coin dates for graves with one coin run from the earliest minting date of the coin until the end of the subsequent coin period (this is the case for all Gellep graves in Table 10 but one); where two subsequent coin periods are represented in one grave, the grave is dated from the earliest minting date of its latest coin to the end of the second coin period represented (this is the case for grave Gellep 120, whose brackets are narrowed down to AD 348 by the coin from that year). When we apply these rules to the Gellep graves with both glazed potery and a coin or coins, we get brackets for the dates of the graves: see Table 10. This shows, as far as the coin evidence goes, that the widest bracket for the date of 271 — glazed potery in Gellep is formed by the years AD 299 and AD 348, and the smallest by the years AD 318 and 348. The later bracket its in well with the changed idea about its date, 320350 (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 37). The conclusion seems to be that the new date for glazed potery is correct: AD 318-348 is what the coin evidence suggests. Table 10. Coins associated with glazed pottery in Gellep graves. CD = Coin date; CP = Coin period. Brackets = brackets for grave date. CD CP Brackets Grave Reference AD 299 1 299-318 1469 Pirling 1974, 33 AD 305 1 305-318 1295 Pirling 1974, 32 AD 307 1/2 307-330 1877 Pirling 1974, 34 AD 313 2 313-330 1273 Pirling 1974, 34 AD 326 3 326-341 1233 Pirling 1966, 51-3, 226 AD 334 4 334-348 2228 Pirling 1974, 32 AD 335 4 335-348 516 Pirling 1974, 31-3 AD 332 4 332-348 120 Pirling 1966, 215 AD 348 5 348-348 120 Pirling 1966, 51-3, 216 Gellep types not in Nijmegen Of course, the potery series of Gellep and Nijmegen are not identical. Gellep ware A, glazed potery, is clearly a local product (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 37) and does not occur in Nijmegen. Although glazed potery seems to have been found once in the inner city of Nijmegen, and so possibly in the Late Roman cemetery, (J.R.A.M. Thijssen, pers. comm.), I have not been able to ind it in documentation or museum depot. Nijmegen types not in Gellep The reverse also happens: some shapes presented here (unfortunately oten stray inds) do not have a parallel in Gellep, and so other existing typologies had to be consulted. With terra sigillata, Chenet (1941) is then referred to. For smooth potery: Brunsting (1937) and Stuart (1963). For some coarse and smoked wares: the publications of the limes fortresses Niederbieber (inhabited AD 190-260; Oelmann 1914) and Alzei (AD 370-400 and 406-450; Unverzagt 1916; it will be clear that the typology of Gellep and Nijmegen largely ills the chronological gap between Niederbieber and Alzei). Siegmund (1998) is referred to for Frankish potery. Gose (1950) is useful when everything else fails. New types not in one of these typologies get the name Nijmegen plus the number of the caption; so the Nijmegen types are numbered discontinuously; as a rule, they are unique pieces and stray inds. All these 30 Nijmegen types will be found in Appendix 3 in alfabetical and numerical order, with caption numbers and, where possible, date. Numbered drawings on type plates With this multitude of typologies referred to, a numbering of its own could not be avoided for the present study: that of the drawings on the typology plates. The caption of each drawing consists of igure number, followed by a full stop and type name and number: 1. Chenet 334c; 2. Gellep 14 et cetera. Wherever a new shape is shown on the present typology plates, the caption is made by the igure number followed by a full stop, Nijmegen and the same number: 4. Nijmegen 4 et cetera. Potery wares The potery wares, as enumerated by Pirling (1997, 131-2), plus a new ware B3, deined by the present author, are the following. Wares dropped in Pirling/Siepen (2006) are indicated with an asterisk *. A Glazed ware B Lustrous potery ired in an oxydizing atmosphere: B1 terra sigillata B2 imitations of terra sigillata B3 reddish sherd, red or white coating 272 — C Potery ired in an oxydizing atmosphere, with a lustrous coating ired in a reducing atmosphere: C1 reddish brown sherd, black metallic coating C2* grey sherd, lustrous black coating (dropped in Pirling/Siepen 2006, 84) C3* greyish black sherd, faintly lustrous black coating (dropped in Pirling/Siepen 2006, 84) C4 reddish brown sherd, faintly lustrous greyish black coating C5 reddish sherd, thin chocolate brown coating C6*light ochre-coloured sherd, lustrous reddish brown coating (dropped in Pirling/ Siepen 2006, 100) C7 yellowish white sherd, thin lustrous brown coating D Potery with non-lustrous slip: D1* ochre-coloured sherd, dull dirty reddish brown slip (dropped in Pirling/Siepen 2006, 101) D2*light sherd, transparent manganese-coloured slip (dropped in Pirling/Siepen 2006, 101) D3 light reddish brown sherd, ochre-coloured slip outside, dull dark reddish brown slip inside D4 reddish brown sherd, greyish black slip D5 white sherd, reddish ochre-coloured slip D6 white sherd, greyish black slip D7 white sherd, black slip strewn with sand D8 white sherd, inside with reddish ochre-coloured slip and strewn with sand D9 white sherd, spoted brown ochre-coloured slip E Marbled potery: E1 brown-marbled potery E2 red-marbled potery E3 white sherd, outside smooth, inside redmarbled F Smooth potery: F1 yellowish white sherd, smoothened carefully F2 reddish ochre-coloured sherd F3 dark grey sherd F4 brownish grey sherd F5 bluish grey sherd F6* greyish white sherd with sot tempering particles (dropped in Pirling/Siepen 2006, 174) F7 terra nigra F8* imitation of terra nigra (no longer mentioned in Pirling/Siepen 2006) F9 reddish sherd, surface polished, locally smothered greyish black G Coarse potery Coarse potery, in most cases meant as cookingvessels, was made ire-proof and resistant to thermic shock (sudden cooling of the hot vessel with cold water) by adding large quantities of tempering material (Gose 1950, 40). Pirling does not, in her list, distinguish fabrics that could reveal something about date and provenance. In her typology, however, she does sometimes make this distinction (Pirling 1966, 83-96). Pirling/Siepen (2006) mentions diferent fabrics in the discussion of frequent types (e.g. Gellep 66, 105, 106, 109, 115). Wherever visible to the naked eye (for lack of a mineralogic potery analysis), a distinction is made in the present study between three production centres in the Eifel (Gose 1950, 40): coarse volcanic tempering material, from Mayen; large quantity of ine tempering material, from Urmitz; greyish brown sherd with quartz sand, from Speicher. 273 — ROMAN POTTERY B1 Terra sigillata Fig. 1 Chenet 334c: 1 example Small oval terra sigillata beaker on a hollow cylindrical foot and with a proiled neck. Example: OO stray 17. Discussion: Type Chenet 334 (Chenet 1941, 84, Pl.17) occurs in Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated just before AD 360 by 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154) and in Allieux-B, dated just before AD 360 as well (Chenet 1941, 154). Pirling (1974, 35) considers it a Gellep 14. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 47) identiies Chenet 334bc with Gellep 14, discussed immediately below. Date: IVc 2 Gellep 14: 8 examples Small oval neckless terra sigillata beaker on high conical foot. Examples: B 181.1, B 217.1, B 218.1, B 686.2, B stray 118, OO 13.1, OO stray 73, OO stray 74. Discussion: Gellep 14 is the undecorated version of Chenet 334bc, treated immediately above. Pirling (1966, 56) considers Gellep 14 a not too good imitation of Gellep 16 and dates it IVcd because of the association with a Gellep 106 with ‘sickle-shaped proile’ (see however the discussion below of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131) and with a glass ribbed beaker Gellep 189. Pirling (1974, 35) mentions two examples in graves with coins of AD 316 and 320. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 47) mentions examples from Gellep dated by coins of the years 308, 310, 316 and 320; they date one example to IVB because of association with a glazed jug (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above); they repeat the date of IVcd, contested above. Date: IVAB. 3 Gellep 15: 2 examples Small oval terra sigillata beaker with short neck and cylindrical foot. Examples: B 470.1, B 654.1. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 56) dates one example to IV and one to IVd-Va. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 179, n. 49) assigns the only example of Gellep 15 no longer to terra sigillata but to terra nigra and dates the imitation to IVd-Va. Date: IV. 4 Nijmegen 4: 1 example Small terra sigillata beaker with cylindrical foot, oval body and high neck. Example: OO stray 19. Discussion: To be considered a variant of Gellep 14. Date: IVAB. 5 Gellep 16 (= Chenet 335a): 7 examples Oval terra sigillata beaker with hollow proiled foot (Zapfenfuß, pied à bourrelet), short proiled neck and barbotine decoration under the lustrous coating. Examples: B 41.1, B 470.2, B stray 269, OO 59.2, OO stray 43, OO stray 72, OO stray 75. Discussion: Chenet (1941, 85) mentions examples as early as AD 260 and 272. Pirling (1966, 56-7) dates one example to IVab, a second one to IVcd and assumes the shape had a long life. She later (1974, 35) dates two examples to IVB (in spite of coins of AD 303 and 305) because of association with a glazed jug and a Gellep 186 (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling (1979, 32) mentions an example associated with a coin of AD 307, many potery vases of IVAB and a glass beaker Gellep 191, and therefore dates it to IVB. So Gellep 16 seems to occur throughout IV. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 47-8), however, dates the type to IVAB. Date: IVAB. 6 Gellep 17 (= Chenet 333): 2 examples Small oval terra sigillata beaker with wide mouth and cylindrical foot. Examples: B stray 213, B stray 263. Discussion: Chenet (1941, 81) dates this shape to IV. Nenquin (1953, 30-33) dates two examples in Furfooz to IVB. Pirling (1966, 57) follows Nenquin. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 47) dates the two 274 — Gellep examples to IVcd. Date: IVBC. dates the type to IIId-IVa. Date: IIId-IVa. 7 Gellep 246 (= Chenet 337): 2 examples Terra sigillata beaker with high neck, hollow proiled foot (Zapfenfuß) and barbotine decoration under the lustrous coating. Examples: B 410.1, B stray 141. Discussion: Pirling (1974, 35-6) dates two examples to IVab because of accompanying grave goods and sees conirmation for this date in a grave at Netersheim (BJ 163 (1963) 210 ig. 5,3). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 48) dates the two Gellep examples to IVAB. Date: IVAB. 10 Chenet 343a: 2 examples One-handled terra sigillata jug (lagoena) with proiled mouth and tripartite handle; white painted decoration. Examples: B stray 129, OO 44.1. Discussion: Third-century shape, occurring also in IV: Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated to just before AD 360 on the basis of 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154). Date: III-IVB. 8 Nijmegen 8: 1 example Terra sigillata botle with lat botom (drawn in during drying), latish globular body, constricted zone at transition to narrow and high, slightly tapering, neck; grooves and white painted decoration on the shoulder. Example: OO 153.1. Discussion: The unique shape of this botle is an imitation of the blown glass shape Isings 103 (= Gellep 522): the constricted zone at the transition shoulder-neck has been taken over here as an elegant element of form; the three grooves on the terra sigillata botle imitate incised lines on the glass example. Isings (1957, 121-2) classiies the shape to III, but dates three examples to IIId-IVa and three to IVab. A comparable North African botle of El-Aouja ware with relief appliqués is also reduced to Isings 103 and dated to III (La Baume/Salomonson n.d., 145 no. 589, Pl. 58,1). Date: IIId-IVab. 9 Gellep 20 (= Niederbieber 27): 1 example One-handled terra sigillata jug with proiled foot, globular body, narrow neck and conical mouthpiece. Example: B stray 70. Discussion: Third-century shape dated by Pirling (1966, 57-8) in Gellep once to III and once to IVB: a long-lived shape. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 50) 11 Chenet 343c: 3 examples Small one-handled terra sigillata jug with proiled mouth and bipartite handle; white painted decoration. Examples: B stray 233, B stray 271, OO 92.1. Discussion: Dated as Chenet 343a above. Date: III-IVB. 12 Chenet 345b: 2 examples One-handled terra sigillata jug with wide body and white painted decoration. Examples: B 232.1, B stray 232. Discussion: Third-century shape (Oelmann 1914, ig. 27), also occurring in IV: Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated to just before AD 360 on the basis of 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154). Date: III-IVB. 13 Chenet 348: 1 example One-handled terra sigillata jug with globular body, long conical neck, wide round mouth with pinched spout and bipartite handle. Example: B stray 25. Discussion: This is the terra sigillata version of a fourth-century shape that also occurs in imitation of terra sigillata (Gellep 43), in marbled ware (Gellep 70) and in smooth ware (Gellep 79-81). See also there for date. Chenet’s igure on Pl. 21 gives an example from Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated to just before AD 360 on the basis of 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154). Date: IVab. 275 — 14 Gellep 550 (= Dragendorf 33): 3 examples Small conical terra sigillata bowl with foot-ring. Examples: B 219.1, OO stray 76-77. Discussion: This long-lived shape corresponds to Gellep 23 and 550, Niederbieber 9 and Alzei 14. Pirling (1966, 58) dates the only example of Gellep 23 known then in Gellep to IVA. Pirling (1979, 33) dates Gellep grave 2711, in which the second example was found, to IVb. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 55) shits the second of these small examples to Gellep 550, dated IIa-IVb. Date: IIa-IVb. 15 Gellep 248 (= Dragendorf 27): 1 example Small terra sigillata bowl with indented wall and foot-ring. Example: B 674.3. Discussion: This shape occurs from the reign of Augustus to IId. Pirling (1974, 38) supposes for that reason that the example in Gellep grave 1883, dated IVA, is a reused old piece. This is also valid for our example (a botom with foot-ring, probably used upside down as a drinking cup), which can be dated to AD 65-85 on the basis of its retrograde stamp OMOM = MOMO (Polak 2000, 274 no. M100). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 52) dates the type to Ia-IId and notes that it was used as an old type in two graves dated IIIc-IVb. Date: IC. 16 Gellep 24 (= Niederbieber 8a): 1 example Small terra sigillata bowl with horizontal rim and foot-ring. Example: B stray 122. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 59) dates the only Gellep example then to IIId because of its association with a coin of Carus (282-283). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 56) dates its last example to IIId. Date: IIId. 17 Gellep 25 (= Chenet 324c, small): 9 examples Small terra sigillata bowl with carinated wall with moulding and vertical upper wall, moulding at rim. Examples: B 182.1, B 215.1, B 818.1, B stray 26, B stray 295, OO 98.1, OO 243.1, OO 484.1, OO stray 78. Discussion: This bowl is distinguished only by its smaller size from bowl Gellep 35; from Gellep 26, by the moulding at its rim. Chenet (1941, 73) mentions its provenance from Arretium and possibly Asia minor, referring to Holwerda (1936, Pl. IV, 504 and 508); he discusses its development up to IV. Pirling (1966, 59) dates an example ater AD 313 on the base of an associated coin; three others to IVab-IVB. Pirling (1974, 36-7) repeats this date, as well as Pirling/Siepen (2006, 60). Date: IVAB. 18 Gellep 26: 5 examples Terra sigillata bowl with carinated bowl with moulding, upper wall vertical, no moulding at rim. Examples: B 383.1, B 762.intr., B stray 44?, OO 133.1, OO stray 79. Discussion: This type is distinguished from Gellep 25 by the absence of a moulding at the rim. Pirling (1966, 59) dates the only Gellep example then to IVB. Pirling (1974, 37) has one example, dated ater AD 317 on the basis of an associated coin, and two to IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 60-1) also dates it to IVab. Date: IVab. 19 Nijmegen 19: 1 example Small terra sigillata bowl with low foot-ring, vertical wall and horizontal rim. Example: B stray 44. Discussion: No drawing being available just before this study goes in press, not possible. Date: ? 20 Gellep 27 (= Chenet 314b): 1 example Small hemispherical terra sigillata bowl with horizontal lip ending in mouldings up and down. Example: OO stray 2. Discussion: This type whose history goes back to Olbia and Pergamon is current in IV (Chenet 1941, 67-8). It is an imitation of a metal shape (Chenet 1941, 67; Pirling 1966, 59) and occurs in Haillot and Vieuxville even in V (Pirling 1966, 59). 276 — Pirling (1974, 37) mentions two examples in Gellep: one c.AD 400, one in IVB. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 57) combines Gellep 27 and 28 but still treats them as two diferent types and dates them to IVab but mentions examples up to Va. Date: IVa-Va. 21 Gellep 29: 7 examples Small terra sigillata bowl with everted lip. Examples: B 176.3, B 372.1, B 764.1, B stray 61, B stray 64, OO 476.1, OO stray 55. Discussion: This type, not mentioned by Chenet, is dated by Pirling (1966, 60) to IVAB because of association with a coin and its absence in IVd-Va. Pirling (1974, 37) mentions eleven examples, all also dated to IVAB. Pirling (1979, 33) repeats this date for ive new examples. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 59-60) dates them to IVAB. Date: IVAB. 22 Gellep 30 (= Chenet 319a): 6 examples Small hemispherical terra sigillata bowl with thickened rim. Examples: B 207.1, B stray 120, OO 273.1, OO 463.1, OO stray 20, OO stray 80. Discussion: Chenet (1941, 69) dates this shape throughout IV. Pirling (1966, 61) dates the only Gellep example to Va on the basis of a coin of c.AD 400. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 65) mentions two examples, both dated to Va. Date: IV-Va. 23 Gellep 31 (= Dragendorf 40, Chenet 302): 3 examples Small calote-shaped terra sigillata bowl on high conical foot-ring. Examples: B 234.1, OO 26.1, OO 186.1. Discussion: This shape, corresponding to Niederbieber 10 and occurring mainly in III, is mentioned by Chenet in Allieux-B and dated c.AD 360 (Chenet 1941, 59 and 154) and Avocourt C, which stops ater Gratian (375-383; Chenet 1941, 59 and 155). Pirling (1966, 61) dates the only Gellep example then to IIId-IVa because of its association with a beaker Gellep 58 (= Künzl 1.6.1). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 52-3) dates the type to IIc- IIIC. Date: III-IVB. 24 Gellep 32: 1 example Small terra sigillata bowl without foot-ring and with everted rim. Example: B 88.1. Discussion: Pirling (1996, 61) mentions IVab Cologne graves and dates the two examples of Gellep 32 and the nine of Gellep 33 to IVAB. Pirling (1974, 37-8) repeats this date for nine Gellep examples, and Pirling (1979, 33) for one. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 58-9) dates the type to IIId-IVab. Date: IIId-IVb. 25 Gellep 34 (= Chenet 320): 32 examples Calote-shaped terra sigillata bowl with round moulding for a rim and usually with roulete decoration. Examples: B 41.2, B 81.1, B 137.1, B 250.1, B 465.1, B 484.intr., B 674.1, B 674.2, B 715.1, B 745.1, B 764.2, B 773.1, B 792.1, B stray 50, B stray 169, B stray 191, B stray 223, OO 63.1, OO 340.1, OO 472.1, OO 473.1, OO stray 3, OO stray 81-89; OO 28.3, a rim sherd, is an intrusion. Discussion: Chenet (1941, 69-72) mentions the Megarian bowl as inspiration and argues that this shape is developed from Dragendorf 37. He dates the numerous examples with roulete decoration throughout IV. Unverzagt (1919, 12) sees a development from Niederbieber 16 with incised decoration. Pirling (1966, 61-2) dates a Gellep example to IVAB, one to IVd-Va, and one to Vab. Pirling (1974, 38) has one IVab example. Pirling (1979, 33-34) dates Gellep grave 2344, which contains a Gellep 34, to phase I of the Frankish graves, i.e. Va, because of metal inds and a W-E-orientation of the grave. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 63-5) follows the groups of rouletted decoration deined and dated by Hübener (1968, deinitions 257-66, absolute dates 27982) and dates most Gellep examples to IVcd-Va. As for the Nijmegen examples, Hübener’s groups 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 are present, totalling 17 examples; 5 other examples have unclear decoration, an- 277 — other 7 are undecorated. Dijkman (1992, 151, ig. 19) gives partly new dates for Hübener’s groups, corrected according to Maastricht data; these are given below ater Hübener’s dates and preceded by D:. New work on the rouletes by L. Bakker, W. Dijkman and P. van Ossel is announced by Bakker (2007). As this new work seems not to have been published yet, Hübener’s dates are followed in the present study. Group Hübener 1, egg mouldings: B stray 191, OO 63.1. Group 2, small rectangles: B 81.1, B 773.1, OO 340.1, OO 473.1, OO stray 82, OO stray 87-9. Group 3, oblique hatching: B 745.1. Group 5, St Andrew’s cross and quincunx: B stray 223, OO 472.1. Group 5/6: B 484.intr., OO stray 3. Group 6, groups of six points: B 465.1. Unnumbered group: B 137.1. Dates: for the potery shape IVa-Vb. For Hübener’s groups of roller-stamps: Group 1, egg mouldings: AD 320-350 (D: AD 330-360) Group 2, small rectangles: AD 330-365 (D: AD 325-400) Group 3, oblique hatching: AD 340-365 (D: AD 330-450) Group 4, horizontal and vertical hatching: AD 345-375 (D: AD 375-450) Group 5, St Andrew’s cross and quincunx: AD 355-395 (D: AD 330-450) Group 6, groups of six points: AD 385-425 (D: AD 350-450) Group 7, complicated paterns: AD 395-425 (D: AD 330-450) Unnumbered, cross-hatching: AD 380-425 (D: AD 375-450) Group 8, Christian symbols: AD 400-440 (D: AD 400-525) 26 Gellep 35 (= Chenet 324c, large): 15 examples Terra sigillata carinated bowl with moulding on the carina and a vertical upper wall. Examples: B 176.2, B 427.1, B 742.1, B stray 53, B stray 119, B stray 237, OO 9.1, OO 30.1, OO 101.1, OO 168.1, OO 181.1, OO 299.1, OO 322.1, OO 354.2, OO stray 4. Discussion: This bowl is distinguished only by its larger size from bowl Gellep 25. Chenet (1941, 73) mentions its provenance from Arretium and possibly Asia minor, referring to Holwerda (1936, Pl. IV, 504 and 508); he discusses its development up to IV. Pirling (1966, 62) mentions three Gellep graves, which she dates (IVab to) IVAB, but refers to Qualburg inds that date the shape up to the end of IV. Pirling (1974, 38) repeats her date for nine new Gellep examples and says there are no indications that this type goes on as long in Gellep as it does in Qualburg. Pirling (1979, 34) dates four new examples again to IVAB. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 66-7) dates the type in Gellep to IVAB, but mentions Trier and Echternach, where the shape was kept in use throughout IV, respectively up to Vb. Date: IVAB. 27 Gellep 36: 4 examples Terra sigillata bowl with carinated wall, convex above the carina and with a moulding on the carina. Examples: B 435.1 (undecorated), B stray 265 (undecorated), OO 168.2 (barbotine), OO stray 90 (barbotine). Discussion: Pirling identiies Gellep 36 with Chenet 325. Chenet, however, takes barbotine decoration as a criterium, not a convex wall. Chenet (1941, 75) shows this to be a third-century shape (such as Niederbieber 19) which continues without changes into IV. Additional examples in Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated to just before AD 360 on the basis of 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154), in Avocourt C, which stops ater Gratian (375-383; Chenet 1941, 59 and 155); and in Allieux-B, dated c.AD 360 (Chenet 1941, 59 and 154). These bring its date to IVB. Pirling (1966, 62-63) has two examples from IVab, and one in IV. Pirling (1974, 38-39) has an example from IVa. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 66) dates almost all Gellep examples to IVab. Date: IVAB. 28 Gellep 249: 4 examples Terra sigillata mortarium with two bat’s ears 278 — above the spout. Examples: B 59.1, B stray 66, OO 252.2, OO stray 91. Discussion: Chenet (1941, 76-79) does not recognize this carelessly made descendant of Dragendorf 45. Pirling (1974, 39) says it is the only mortarium remaining in fourth-century Gellep, sees Niederbieber 22 as its forerunner and Alzei 3 as its descendant. Of the two Gellep examples, she dates one IVAB, the other IVA. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 68) repeats this date. Date: IVAB. 29 Gellep 37 (= Dragendorf 18/31): 9 examples Terra sigillata plate with maker’s stamp. Examples: B 14.1, B 54.1, B stray 7, B stray 268, OO 168.3, OO stray 27, OO stray 40-1, OO stray 92. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 63) mentions a single Gellep example, dated to IIB by its stamp COMINIVSF. She gives two possible explanations for this second-century plate in a fourth-century grave: either an heirloom or a ind from a grave of two centuries old. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 6970) simply calls it an old piece. Bloemers, cited by Lauwerier (1988, 79), also points out the discrepancy for OO 168.3. With three examples found in Nijmegen fourth-century graves during excavation, there can be no doubt that this old type was really still used in IV. The frequency in Nijmegen suggests heirlooms still in more or less general use. The stamps occurring are BASSI (OO stray 41), CELSINVSF (B stray 7), LOSSA FEC (B stray 268), MARTIALFE (OO stray 92), MEDDICFI (B 54.1), MODEST F (OO stray 40) and OF CRES (OO stray 27). Bassus (i) worked at La Graufesenque [1], AD 50-70 (Polak 2000, 177-82). Crestio worked at La Graufesenque c.AD 50-110 (Polak 2000, 213-6). Modestus’ stamp is from La Graufesenque [1] and dated AD 40-65 (Polak 2000, 272). Dr M. Polak kindly gave the following references for the other stamps. Celsinus: from the Argonnes, Boucheporn, Chémery-Faulquemont, Itenweiler and Sinzig, c.AD 130-160; see e.g. Bloemers/ Sarfatij 1976, 153, no. 32. Lossa: c.AD 130-160; distribution and ware suggest La Madeleine rather than Trier; see e.g. Bloemers/Sarfatij 1976, 155, no. 74 (atribution to Trier there erroneous). Martialis: from Chémery-Faulquemont, c.AD 100130; see e.g. Bloemers/Sarfatij 1976, 155, nos 8485. Meddicus: from Chémery-Faulquemont, c.AD 100-130; see e.g. Bloemers/Sarfatij 1976, 155, nos 88-90. Date: IB-IIC. 30 Gellep 38: 42 examples Large terra sigillata plate on foot-ring with convex wall and in-turned rim. Examples: B 90.1, B 151.1, B 186.1, B 189.1, B 207.2, B 217.2, B 293.1, B 381.1, B 470.3, B 686.1, B 722.1, B 741.1, B 744.1, B 764.3, B 766.1, B 779.2, B stray 62, B stray 121, B stray 123, B stray 124, B stray 130, B stray 186, B stray 187, B stray 257, B stray 302, OO 59.1, OO 94.1, OO 161.1, OO 196.1, OO 461.1, OO stray 5, OO stray 6, OO stray 22, OO stray 56, OO stray 93-100. Discussion: This is the most frequent terra sigillata plate in fourth-century Gellep and Nijmegen. There is no good parallel in Chenet (1941). It is certainly not the same as Chenet 306 with its proiled lip, mentioned by Pirling (1966, 63). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 72) identiies it with Chenet 304A and dates most exemples in Gellep to IVab. However, Chenet 304A is deeper and occurs only twice in Chenet (1941, 61). So its provenance is an unsolved problem. The smallest diameter of the Nijmegen examples is 16.2, the largest 31.4 cm. As there are two gaps in this range, the irst between 21.0 and 23.4 cm, the second between 26.0 and 28.0 cm, there are three size groups: small 16.2-21.0, medium 23.426, and large 28-31.4 cm: 18, 16 and 7 examples, respectively. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 72) recognizes two sizes in Gellep: 17-20 and 22-28 cm. Pirling (1966, 63) dates one example to IIId and the other iteen ones to IVAB. Pirling (1974, 39) has three example in graves dated by coins of AD 307 and 313, two of IVB, and one dated as late as IVcd, on the basis of an association with a bowl Gellep 122 (see however the discussion of Gellep 122, type ig. 151). Date: IIId-IVB. 279 — 31 Gellep 39 (= Chenet 306): 15 examples Large terra sigillata plate on foot-ring, with oblique wall and proiled vertical lip. Examples: B 86.1, B 181.2, B 191.1, B 219.2, B 234.2, B 481.1, B stray 65, B stray 224, OO 26.2, OO 62.1, OO 98.2, OO 101.2, OO 200.1, OO 207.1, OO stray 101. The smallest diameter of the Nijmegen examples is 18.5, the largest 26 cm. As there is a gap in this range between 22.0 and 23.7 cm, there are two sizes: small 18.5-22, medium 23.7-26 cm: 9 and 7 examples, respectively. There is no large size, as in Gellep 38 and Gellep 40. Discussion: Pirling/Siepen (2006, 73) identiies it with Chenet 306 and Alzei 7. Pirling (1966, 64) has one example associated with a coin of AD 313; she dates the other ive examples from three graves IVab or IVB. Pirling (1974, 40) dates two graves with this type to IVA on the basis of coins and other grave goods, and the other twelve examples in eleven graves to IVab or IVB. Pirling (1979, 34-35) dates four graves in which a Gellep 39 occurs to IVAB. Date: IVAB. 32 Gellep 40 (= Chenet 304b): 18 examples Terra sigillata plate on foot-ring, with lat oblique wall and vertical lip. Examples: B 16.1, B 176.1, B 367.1, B 465.2, B 704.1, OO 168.4, OO 252.1, OO 316.1, OO 339.1, OO 339.2, OO 354.1, OO 356.1, OO 400.1, OO 475.1, OO stray 44, OO stray 64, OO stray 102, OO stray 318. Discussion: The smallest diameter of the Nijmegen examples is 17.7, the largest one 30.7. As there are two gaps in this range, the irst between 17.7 and 20.5 cm, the second between 25.5 and 28.5 cm, there are three size groups: small 17.7, medium 20.5-25.5, and large 28.530.6 cm: 1, 10 and 3 examples, respectively. Chenet (1941, 60) metaphorically calls his type 304 (together with his 320 = bowl Gellep 34) a true guide fossil of the fourth century. This shape, which according to Pirling (1966, 64) can vary considerably in the shape of its lip without chronological consequences, is dated by her IV- VB: two examples in IVab, three in IVab or IVB, one in IVcd, two in IVd-Va, and one in VB (Frankish grave 43). Pirling (1974, 40) mentions ive examples from IVab or IVB. Pirling (1979, 35) dates an example to IVcd on the basis of an association with a glass barrel botle Isings 128 (= Gellep 213), which according to her occurs not earlier than IVcd: see below, Isings 128. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 72-3) calls the type a further development of Gellep 38 and mentions the tendency of a rim that is slanted outwards in the VAB examples. Date: IVa-VB. 33 Gellep 41 (= Chenet 313): 7 examples Terra sigillata plate with horizontal lip, the end of which is thickened. Examples: B 80.1, B 94.1, B 199.1, B 372.2, OO 144.1, OO stray 39, OO stray 103. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 64) identiies this type with Alzei 12 and Chenet 317 (later one incorrectly). Chenet (1941, 63) calls his type 313 a guide fossil of the fourth century. Pirling (1966, 64) mentions two examples in graves with coins of AD 306 and 308, and one from a grave that can be dated just before AD 350; she inds no indication for a later date. Pirling (1974, 40) changes this lightly: one with a coin of AD 305, four graves from IVab or IVB. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 74-5) repeats this date. Date: IVAB. 34 Chenet 313i: 1 example Terra sigillata plate with rouleted decoration on its lip, which has a z-proile at its rim. Example: OO stray 57. Discussion: This plate, conspicuous by its shape, lip form and decoration is a variant of Gellep 41 = Chenet 313. Date: IVAB. 35 Dragendorf 32 (= Ludowici Ta): 1 example Terra sigillata plate with inturning rim. Example: OO 153.2. Discussion: The only example of this Rheinzabern shape wears the otherwise unknown (M. Polak, pers. comm.) stamp ATLASFEC. Schönberger 280 — (1983) dates this plate AD 175-260. The example of Drag. 18/31 (= Gellep 37, type ig. 29) shows that it may be a heirloom. Date: IId-IIIB. 36 Gellep 563 (= Niederbieber 5b): 1 example Calote-shaped terra sigillata plate with incised decoration, rim slightly everted. Example: OO stray 104. Discussion: Niederbieber 5b = Gellep 563 is shown by Pirling (1997, Typentafel 2) but not discussed, just as other new types. The Nijmegen example with its thin base within the foot-ring shows an extreme example of hollowing out within the foot-ring. This is briely mentioned by Chenet (1941, 7). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 71) dates the type to IId-IIIb. Date: IId-IIIb. 37 Chenet 301: 1 example Small calote-shaped terra sigillata plate without foot-ring or lip. Example: OO 44.2. Discussion: Chenet (1941, 59) mentions this type in Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated to just before AD 360 on the basis of 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154) and in Allieux-B, dated c.AD 360 (Chenet 1941, 59 and 154). Date: IVc. B2 Imitations of terra sigillata 38 ± Chenet 333h: 1 example Small tulip-shaped reddish brown beaker with white painted decoration. Example: B 480.1. Discussion: The parallel in Chenet (1941, 82 and Pl. XVI) comes from the well of champs 790 at Lavoye, whose contents are dated ater AD 375 (Chenet 1941, 25 and 154). Date: IVd. 39 Gellep 42: 5 examples Brown-marbled or red painted small jug with constricted foot and bipartite handle beginning on the greatest diameter. Examples: B 676.2, B 702.4, B 705.intr., B stray 49, OO stray 105. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 65) remarks that this jug occurs in both potery ware B2 (imitation of terra sigillata) and F2 (smooth potery with reddish ochre-coloured sherd). Brown-marbled potery (E1) may now be added. She dates the two jugs to IVab and IVB. Pirling (1974, 41) dates a Gellep 42 to IVB because of the association with a twisted bracelet. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 76) dates the type to IVab. Date: IVAB. 40 Gellep 43 (= Chenet 348): 11 examples Globular one-handled jug with long conical neck, wide round mouth with pinched spout, bipartite handle, of red painted potery with a decoration painted in dull red. Examples: B 680.1, B 779.1, B stray 222, B stray 318, OO 478.1, OO stray 106-111. Discussion: Chenet (1941, 99) mentions examples from Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated to just before AD 360 on the basis of 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154) and in Allieux-B, dated c.AD 360 (Chenet 1941, 59 and 154). Pirling (1966, 65) remarks that this model occurs in four potery wares: B2 (imitations of terra sigillata), E1 (brown-marbled), F (smooth) and G (coarse): Gellep 43, Gellep 70, Gellep 80 and Gellep 114 respectively; C4 (reddish brown sherd, faintly lustrous greyish black coating) may be added now: B 199.2. She dates one of the Gellep 43 examples to IIIcd-IVa, one to IVd-Va, and one to IVcd. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 77-8) dates the type in Gellep to IVBC and mentions examples in Mayen from IVcd. Date: IVa-d. B3 Reddish sherd, red or white slip 41 Gellep 45: 2 examples Jug with proiled band-shaped lip and sometimes a moulding on the neck, of light red or dark coloured potery. Examples: B 702.2, B 702.3. 281 — Discussion: Ware B3, newly deined here, occurs in one grave only, B 702. It shapes are those of ine dark coloured ware, C4. It must have been made just ater the production of ware C4 stopped with the devastation of Trier AD 355. This dates ware B3 and grave B 702 to the years AD 355360. Pirling (1966, 66) remarks that Gellep 45, inspired by metal examples, also occurs in dark colour coated and smooth potery. She dates the Gellep example of Gellep 45 to IVab or IVB. Pirling (1974, 41) arrives at the same date and so does Pirling/Siepen (2006, 76-7). Date: AD 355-360. 42 Nijmegen 42: 1 example Small angular variant of jug Künzl 12.3.1. Example: B 702.5 Discussion: The angularity, the small size and the rare ware of this unique piece all point in the same direction: a late imitation of Künzl 12.3.1. Date: AD 355-360. A scater diagram of the proportions height:width and total height:height of neck of these ive beakers, of all Symonds’ igures of his group 32, and of those of his group 61 showed these ive beakers to be nearer to Symonds 61 than to Symonds 32. They have been relegated to Symonds 61 smooth, to be discussed below. Date: IVAB. 45 Symonds 35 (=Niederbieber 33c): 2 examples Fine dark coloured indented beaker with long oval dents. Examples: OO stray 121, Remainder stray 4. Discussion: Symonds (1992, 49-53 and ig. 27) dates his group 35 in III because of their short conical necks. The shape corresponds to Niederbieber 33c (Oelmann 1914, Pl. 2) and is dated by Gose (1950, 18, Pl. 14) both in IIIab (no 206) and in III generally (no 207). Date: IIIa-d. 43 Symonds 14: 1 example Fine dark coloured indented beaker with low wide conical neck. Example: OO stray 119. Discussion: Symonds (1992, ig. 12 nos 241-254 and p. 26) names central Gaul as place of production and dates this beaker to III. Gose (1950, Pl. 14, ig. 210 and p. 18) dates it to IIIcd. Date: IIIcd. 46 Gellep 56 (= Niederbieber 32c): 4 examples Shouldered globular ine dark coloured beaker. Examples: B 54.2, B 206.1, B 292.1, B 705.intr. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 69) dates the only known Gellep example then to IIIcd. The shape is identical with Niederbieber 32c. Pirling (1974, 43) discusses four new examples, one of which is dated to IIIcd, and two to IVab, on the basis of associated potery. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 84-5) repeats these dates. Symonds (1992, 43-4 and ig. 20 no. 412) locates the production near Strasbourg or Saverne in Alsace. Date: IIIcd-IVab. 44 Symonds 32 or 61?: 5 examples Smooth ine dark coloured beaker with wide body. Examples: B 706.2, B stray 176, OO 288.1, OO 481.2, OO 483.2. Discussion: Symonds 32, a third-century type, has a wider body than the fourth-century Symonds 61 generally has (one example of Symonds 61 indeed has these proportions: Symonds 1992, ig. 46, no. 793). So do these ive belong to Symonds 32 or 61? 47 Gellep 57: 20 examples Fine dark coloured jar with short near-vertical lip and constricted foot. Examples: B 90.2, B 171.1, B 196.2, B 681.2, B 809.1, B 812.3, B 821.1, B stray 86, B stray 88, OO 9.2, OO 109.2, OO 170.1, OO 201.1, OO 234.1, OO 283.1, OO 320.1, OO 339.5, OO 383.1, OO stray 122, OO stray 304. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 69) dates this jar to IVab on the basis of associated coins of AD 315 and 317. Pirling (1974, 43-44) dates them to Constan- C4 Reddish brown sherd, faintly lustrous greyish black coating 282 — tinian age; two graves, however, also have a twisted bracelet and one of these a glass beaker Gellep 293, and are therefore dated to IVB. Pirling (1979, 36) has an example from a grave with a coin of AD 341 and reaches the date of IVAB. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 85-6) arrives at two size groups: small 6-8.4 cm, large 8.5-11 and dates the type to IVab. The Nijmegen examples have two size groups plus two larger outliers: (small is absent), twelve large pieces 8.7-10.5, ive extra large pieces 12.1-13.5, and two still larger outliers 15.1 and 18.6 cm. Date: IVab. The Trier beakers Before the types of the ine dark coloured beaker from Trier with its narrow foot, globular body and conical neck are discussed one by one, a survey of the whole seems appropriate. Both Symonds (1992, 66) and Künzl (1997, 19-22) discuss these beakers as the irst potery shape in their studies. The following subjects are treated below: the Latin word for beaker, typology, sizes and volumes, drinking habits, motoes and one graito, and chronology. The Latin word for beaker The word for beaker in third and fourth-century vulgar Latin, i.e. spoken language, was ola. This appears from the moto TEN[E]OLA on a thirdcentury beaker (Künzl 1997, 162-3, 257, Pl. 1bc), and two texts from Nijmegen, listed below: the moto IMPLEOLA and the graito OLATENEBIBE. Ola corresponds to the classical Latin olla and the archaic Latin aula (Festus, p. 23 Müll.), which both mean pot or jar. Lexica do not give the meaning beaker for olla. Besides, the texts on the beakers show that the ending -m of the accusative had been dropped in spoken language by the third century. Typology Renate Pirling (1966, 71) found diiculty in assigning the beakers to well-deined types: in her irst publication of the Gellep cemeteries, she wrote that her types 59-62 could not be exactly distinguished one from the other, nor would they be chronologically subdivided. Symonds (1992, 66-7, ig. 46) solved Pirling’s problem (without mentioning it) by assigning Pirling’s undecorated types 59, 61 and 62 to one group: Symonds 61, which covers both small, medium and large sized beakers of slim or sturdy model of the fourth century. Undecorated indented beakers are Symonds 62. For beakers decorated with white and yellow paint and/or barbotine, four types deined by Künzl (1997) are used below. So the shape of the ine dark coloured beaker comprises six types: Symonds 61, beakers Symonds 62, indented beakers Künzl 1.4.1, small decorated beakers Künzl 1.4.2, small decorated indented beakers Künzl 1.6.1, large decorated beakers Künzl 1.6.2, medium sized decorated beakers. Sizes and volumes So the sizes are taken into account in Künzl’s types, and not in those of Symonds. The sample of 315 beakers presented in Table 11 comprises all Nijmegen beakers of these six types listed in the ind catalogue. Apart from the six types in the column headings of Table 11, six size groups may be distinguished, as appears in the bar diagram in Steures (2002a, 176, ig. 2), where the frequencies of the heights of 252 of the beakers are grouped every 5 mm. The six resulting size groups are called, in analogy to contemporary dress sizes: XS (= extra small), S, M(edium), L(arge), XL, and XXL. The volumes, measured by illing one or more beakers per size group with water up to the transition between shoulder and neck, are no multiples of one another. However, in Table 11 it would seem that there is a unit of 130 cc in size groups XS, S and M: 125, 260 and 390 cc, respectively. Two 283 — Table 11: Size groups and types of 315 dark coloured beakers found in Nijmegen. K141 = Künzl 1.4.1 etc.; S61 = Symonds group 61 etc. N = 315 (343 beakers, 28 of which incomplete in height).

So the beakers do not seem to be standardized in the present-day sense of the word; which is all but impossible for a poter. But standard heights do seem to have been intended, in unciae (2.467 cm) of one twelth of a Roman foot. Calculating with the other subdivision of the foot, digiti of one sixteenth of a foot, i.e. 1.85 cm, does not lead to round numbers. The intended heights seem to be: 4.5 unciae for XS, 5 for S, 6-6.5 for M, 8 for L, 8.5 for XL, and 9.5-11 unciae for XXL. For a comparable discussion of sizes see Künzl (1997, 124-8). In the discussion of the large beakers Künzl 1.6.1 below, it is argued that the Nijmegen material does not support an interpretation of Künzl’s: that these huge beakers served as carafes. So they are treated as real beakers here. Finally, Table 11 shows the numeric preponderance of the undecorated beakers of Symonds’ group 61 over the decorated ones of Künzl’s decorated types. Drinking habits It cannot be established whether sizes had anything to do with diferent kinds of wine. The names under which wine is mentioned in mottoes outside Nijmegen are: CONDITVM (spicy), MERVM (unmixed wine) VINVM (wine), RARVM (rare), AMINEVM (famous wine from Picenum), and PICATVM (pitchy; the same moto PARCE PICATVM DA AMINEVM voices a preference for Amineum: Künzl 1997, 96, 256). It seems more likely that large sizes were intended for great drinkers. The average drinker used the quantity that goes into a medium size beaker, c.390 cc. Other drinkers drank on steadily with the extra 284 — small beakers, i.e. the moto-beakers of Künzl’s type 1.4.1. When drinking, they folded their hands comfortably around the warm beakers: some motoes found outside Nijmegen refer to wine heated by mixing it with hot water. CALDVM ‘hot’ refers to the neuter noun vinum = wine; CALO ‘I’m hot’, DACALDAM = da caldam (aquam) ‘give hot water’. The shape of these beakers with their globular bodies and conical necks seems to be designed to keep the wine warm. As it has been discussed in Steures (2002a), the word MISCE igures predominantly on the extra small beakers of Künzl’s type 1.4.1, suggesting that mixing with hot water was done in the beaker itself. Motoes and one graito Late Roman thirst clearly appears from the drinking motoes on the ine dark coloured beakers, jugs, botles and bowls. Both Symonds (1992, 112-121) and Künzl (1997, 252-259) have lists of drinking motoes. Künzl also discusses them (1997, 94-101). The number of Nijmegen motoes is small enough to give a list of them here, instead of puting them in an appendix. For the sake of completeness, those on ine dark coloured jugs and botles and one bowl appear here as well, just as two motoes on terra sigillata beakers (type Gellep 16 = Chenet 335a and Gellep 246 = Chenet 337), one on a terra sigillata bowl (Chenet 301), one on a terra sigillata botle (Nijmegen 8), one on an imitation of a terra sigillata jug (Gellep 43 = Chenet 348), and one on a brown-marbled jug (Gellep 70). Apart from these six, types in the list are those of Künzl. An asterisk indicates a moto not in the lists indicated above. The asterisk is in parentheses when the new moto is not on ine dark coloured ware. Stray inds indicated with Roman numerals are those of group A, listed at beginning of Chapter 4: 17th to early 19th-century inds, not surviving or not to be identiied. The graito is discussed after this list. B stray 140 One Nijmegen text does not it into this list: OLATENEBIBE = ollam tene bibe: ‘take the beaker (and) drink’: B stray 140. This text is not a painted moto, but it is a graito on an undecorated beaker of Symonds’ group 61. The irst excavator of the Inner City cemetery of Nijmegen, the late prof. H. Brunsting, saw it for what it is. The grafito turns a kiln waster into an article of fun: it has a iring crack in its botom. Whoever followed the advice writen on the beaker would spill wine on his dress, and that was funny. Particularly funny to receive this beaker in one’s grave. Wasters are however commonly used in graves. Chronology All ive chronological groups of the decorated beakers as deined by Suzanna Künzl (1997, 5377) are characterized by potery shapes and decoration elements. Each is given a number by Künzl. She herself indicates that she really means workshops when she writes about groups (Künzl 1997, 53 note 190). Her chronological groups are: Group I AD 255 - before 260 Group II before 260 - 270 Group III 270 - 280 Group IV 280 - 310/315 Group V 300/310 - 355 285 — * Text Classical Latin Translation Type Find number AMOTE amo te I love you 1.4.1 B 207.3 APETE avete hello everybody 1.4.1 B stray 240 AVET avete 1.4.1 B 216.1 1.6.1 OO 467.2 1.6.1 Rem. stray 13 1.4.1 Rem. stray 14 16.0 Rem. stray 15 drink, everybody 1.3.1 Rem. stray 18 AVETE ΛVETE avete BIBE drink BIBITE * DABIBERE da bibere give to drink ?

There is a conspicuous use of yellow barbotine in group IV. Groups I-III are absent from the Nijmegen cemeteries. The only six representants of group IV in Nijmegen are: botle B stray 128, beaker B stray 240, beaker OO stray 181, jug OO 4.1, beaker OO 78.1, beaker OO 130.1. Group V, however, uses white and sometimes also some yellow paint and shows all the signs of series production: the fast way of decorating with paint instead of the painstaking barbotine, and the smallest variation in motoes (Künzl 1997, 97). It has almost always large dots between the leters (Künzl 1997, 70). So it appears that nearly all Nijmegen decorated beakers be- 288 — long to group V and therefore to the irst half of the fourth century. All motoes on Nijmegen decorated dark coloured beakers, jugs and bottles are executed in white paint, even in the rare cases where the rest of the decoration was done in barbotine. The decoration elements used on the potery will be treated below with every type that carries them.

Symonds 61, no details known: 1 example This beaker was not found in the depot. Example: OO 171.1. Discussion: The variants of Symonds 61 Symonds 61 is subdivided here according to the way the poter used his spatula in the variants smooth (i.e. with no use of the spatula), incised, grooved, with incised groove, and incised and grooved. This has not been done for exaggerated precision but in order to understand how the poter worked. If the spatula was used on beaker Symonds 61, there are usually three small zones with spatula marks: halfway between foot and maximum diameter, on or near the maximum diameter, and just below the transition to the neck. The term incised should be explained here, because it seems to be new. With incising I mean making the light regular incisions, common in ine dark coloured potery, by keeping the spatula lightly between thumb and foreinger and letting its tip or side dance over the surface of the pot on the turning poter’s wheel. Symonds (1992, 6, 54, 66 and passim) consequently calls it 289 — rouleting. This misnomer is traditional in the British archaeological literature (e.g. Charleston 1955, captions of Pls. 13AB; Hayes 1997, 45, caption of Pl. 15). Symonds (1992, 6, 54 and 66) argues that incising originally served the aim of masking seams that remained ater mounting, in the leatherhard stage, sections of larger vases that had been thrown one by one on the poter’s wheel. In the fourth century, Symonds argues, when coarser clay was used, the beakers could be thrown in one piece, but the rouleting remained. This may be answered as follows. The word rouleting misleadingly suggests the use of a rollerstamp or roulete, which the poter runs over the surface. This roller-stamp, for which Chenet (1941, 45-47 and passim) uses the word molete, was not used with ine dark coloured potery (it was indeed used with Argonne terra sigillata). All visible signs indicate that the clay was not leather-hard but fully plastic when the grooves or incised decoration was applied, and that the beaker still was on the poter’s wheel. The poter makes a wide zone of incised decoration by allowing the side of his wooden spatula, the other end of which he holds gently between thumb and foreinger, to dance over the surface of a piece of potery on the turning poter’s wheel. In German, this is known as das federnde Blätchen as described by Hetner (1883, 173), Czysz (1982, 322-4) and Künzl (1997, 92-93). This thin, probably wooden spatula apparently had a rectangular ending, c.0.2 cm wide. If the poter wanted to make a groove, he pushed the spatula, irmly held between thumb and foreinger, with this ending against the turning beaker. If he wanted to make a narrow zone of incising instead, he held the spatula gently but otherwise in the same way. If he held it in a way between irmly and gently, he produced an incised groove (B 741.3, OO 65.1). The few beakers, on which a groove changes into a narrow zone of incising, show that the poter lost his concentration for a moment (OO 108.2, OO 463.3). Provenance of Symonds 61 Where does Symonds 61 and the rest of the fourth-century ine dark coloured potery come from? Symond’s chapter on fourth-century pottery starts with a long discussion of this problem (Symonds 1992, 63-66). As Trier was devastated in AD 276 during a barbarian invasion, he argues that the surviving poters must have led, and he sees the Argonnes to the west of Trier as their most probable destination. He is not able, however, to show kilns with reject heaps of ine dark coloured potery there. Even his abstract of an analysis of twenty samples from fourth-century Nijmegen, which clearly shows that they are very near to third-century potery from Trier, does not make him reject his Argonnes hypothesis; further work on it is announced. In this line of argument, Symonds completely ignores the very favourable economic circumstances in fourthcentury emperor’s residence Trier. Künzl (1997, 10-18) in discussing the Trier kilns does not enter into a discussion on Symonds’ problem but does answer it implicitly: there positively are reject heaps of ine dark coloured fourth-century potery near Trier kilns. She underlines this with the title of her study, Die Trierer Spruchbecherkeramik. Date of Symonds 61 Symonds (1992, 67) remarks that he has already discussed the general chronology on the previous pages. There, however, he was so busy arguing that they did not come from Trier, that he did not mention a date for the end of the production, or for that mater, for its beginning. So we have to look elsewhere in the literature. Symonds 61 corresponds to Gellep 59, 61 and 62, to judge by the drawings: Pirling (1966, 1974, 1979) does not deine her types Gellep 59, 61 and 62. She (1966, 70-71) dates them, together with Gellep 60, as follows: a single example to IIIcd (on the basis of association in Gellep grave 62 with a Gellep 56 and a Gellep 77), and the great mass to IVAB. The time ater AD 350 is represented by association with a cooking-pot Gellep 106 of ‘sickle-shaped proile’ in Gellep grave 65 290 — (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131). Pirling (1974, 4445) reduces this to IVab; she does not know where these beakers come from. Pirling (1979, 37) returns to the date IVAB, with the remark that there are no signs in Gellep of examples after that time. This means a retardation of twelve years ater the end of the production with the devastation of Trier in AD 355. Date: IVAB. 53 Symonds 62: 9 examples Fine dark coloured indented beaker. Examples: B 414.1, B 704.2, B stray 83, B stray 84, B stray 180, OO 433.1, OO stray 170-172. Discussion: These beakers, the indented variant of Symonds 61, are to be dated likewise to IVAB. Pirling (1989, type plate 3) depicts one as Gellep 371, but by then she no longer discussed her new types. Symonds (1992, 67) remarks that the ive examples known to him do not look as if they were made in Trier. He further thinks that indented beakers are so rare in the fourth century because of coarser clay used. Date: IVAB. 54 Künzl 1.3.1: 1 example See Remainder stray 18 in Chapter 4, Catalogue of the stray inds. Künzl 1.4.1 in diferent variants: 73 examples Small ine dark coloured beakers decorated with white paint, in three cases (also) with white barbotine (B stray 240, OO 78.1 and OO 130.1). 55 Künzl 1.4.1m (with moto): 51 examples Examples: B 5.1, B 5.2, B 57.1, B 150.1, B 177.2, B 183.1, B 196.1, B 201.1, B 207.3, B 216.1, B 298.57, B 383.3, B 423.2, B 751.1, B 751.2, B stray 4-5, B stray 30-32, B stray 39, B stray 85, B stray 234-235, B stray 240, B stray 288, OO 20.1, OO 20.2, OO 31.1, OO 40.1, OO 42.1, OO 44.3, OO 69.1, OO 78.1, OO 92.2, OO 98.4, OO 102.1, OO 108.1, OO 131.1, OO 149.1, OO 151.1, OO 188.1, OO 240.1, OO 240.2, OO 289.1, OO 463.2, OO 478.2, OO stray 28, OO stray 176, OO stray 292, Remainder stray 14. 56 Künzl 1.4.1d (with decoration, without moto): 22 examples Examples: B 73.1, B 183.1, B 197.1, B 236.1, B 248.2, B 292.2, B 319.1, B 706.1, B 764.4, B stray 79, B stray 179, OO 13.2, OO 130.1, OO 176.4, OO 324.1, OO 478.3, OO 478.4, OO 480.1, OO 481.3, OO stray 173-175. Discussion: Künzl (1997, 21) remarks that this is the preeminent moto-beaker. It is the longestlived, and occurs both with white barbotine and with white paint. However the type shows the greatest variety of proportions. The proportion height : maximum diameter usually lies between 1.2 and 1.5; height of beaker : height of neck between 2.0-2.8. (This variation can be clearly seen in the Nijmegen pair OO 20.1-2, apparently meant as identical but with a great diference in maximum diameter.) The irst examples of 1.4.1 already occur in chronological group II (before AD 260-270); they are predominant from group III on (AD 270-280). The last examples in group V (AD 300/310-355) were made right up to the end of the production time, ater the middle of the fourth century. The decorative elements used on the beakers of type Künzl 1.4.1 consist of zone dividers, word dividers, leter dividers and tendrils. The following elements, indicated with the numbers Künzl (1997, 39-49, type plates 9-14) assigns to them, are present. Zone dividers 3 (irregular wavy line in white barbotine), 4 (irregular wavy line in white paint), 10 (horizontal line in white paint) and 11 (doted line in white paint). The most frequent combination of these is horizontal lines above and below, but all combinations Künzl gives for group V (1997, 308, type plate 16) occur. Leter divider 70 (large round dot of white paint) occurs on almost every moto-beaker. Only four beakers have leter divider 72 (a small dot of white paint); remarkably, these are two pairs (B 751.1 and 2, B stray 26 and 27). Word dividers 58 (three or four small dots in a vertical row) and 59 (three or four small dots of paint, from top let to bottom right) occur very oten, but the following are also present: 50-53 (four dots forming together an Y), 57 (triangle of dots), 60 (small horizontal 291 — lines), and 64 (branch). Word divider 48 (small dots and a heart-shaped motif) occurs once, on a beaker with barbotine lines. Of the tendrils, which occur only on beakers without moto, 188 occurs ten times (running scroll); further, once 78 (hook on dot) and once 189 (running scroll with small dots). One exuberantly decorated example, OO 463.2, difers from the others on all points: it is thickwalled and heavy, of terra nigra rather than ine dark coloured potery, and uses leter dividers that do not occur elsewhere in Nijmegen: 71 (two large dots, one on top of the other), 75 (line of three large dots), and the unknown motif of a lozenge made of four dots. In this example, apparently the youngest of the series an exuberant farewell is said to the type, with a paradoxical VIVAS. Strikingly, all three (or four) pairs in the Nijmegen graves have identical decoration, as if they were bought especially for the grave (B 751.1 and 2, OO 20.1 and 2, OO 478.3 and OO 478.4, and possibly B stray 26 and 27). The examples of Künzl 1.4.1 that belong to chronological group V correspond to part of Symonds 63: Symonds’ examples 808-9 (from Nijmegen), 813-838 and 844-7. Date: AD 300-355. Künzl 1.4.2: 1 example Example: OO stray 177. Discussion: This is the indented beaker variant of Künzl 1.4.1. 57 Künzl 1.6.1: 10 examples Large ine dark coloured moto-beaker with a decoration zone under the moto. Examples: B 387.1, B stray 38, B stray 171, B stray 183, OO 467.2, OO stray 178-181, Remainder stray 13. Discussion: Künzl (1997, 22) dates this type to IVab or even IVAB. Künzl 1.6.1 corresponds to Symonds 63, amongst which Symonds’ examples 810-2 from Nijmegen. The decorative elements on Künzl 1.6.1 (see also above under Künzl 1.4.1) comprise zone dividers 6, 9, 11 and 16, leter di- viders 70, 71 and 119 (in white paint), word dividers 57, 64 and 68, 70 together with 57, and tendril 168 and 188. Künzl (1997, 22) suggests that the large beakers of type 1.6.1 were intended to be mixing bowls (Cratere). I doubt this. The name Crater suggests that mixing took place before pouring out; we already saw that mixing probably took place in the drinking beaker itself. M. Erdrich (pers. comm.) supports Künzl’s view. Whilst processing the inds during the excavations of cemetery Nijmegen-East (OO), he noticed wear marks on the lower inside of the large beakers, as if they had been stirred regularly; such wear marks were absent from smaller beakers. This need not mean that the large beakers served as mixing bowl for groups. Moreover, the evidence from Nijmegen, both motoes and ind circumstances, does not support this supposed function of carafe. Firstly, amongst the motoes on Künzl 1.6.1 there is, admitedly, the greeting AVETE (on OO 467.2) in the plural number (‘hello everyone’), as if the beaker was intended to be served to a group; but this same greeting also occurs on two beakers of size group XS (Künzl 1.4.1), in the forms AVET and APETE. Moreover, one of the large beakers of Künzl’s type 1.6.1 has the imperative singular VTERE (a formula oten used on gits, usually combined with FELIX ‘use (happily) on your own’): very appropriate in a single grave. Secondly, as for the ind circumstances: two of these (extra) extra large beakers were indeed found together with smaller beakers. Two others, however, though accompanied by other pottery, were found without smaller beakers. The undecorated beakers of Symonds’ type 61, which fall outside the scope of Künzl’s study, have also been screened in order to answer the question whether the L-XXL beakers were intended as carafes. In 13 cases these are accompanied by smaller beakers, as opposed to 23 cases where they are not. No less than 11 out of these 23 were the only artefact in the grave. Here too the function of carafe is improbable. Dr Hilary Cool kindly drew my atention to a moto-beaker from Neatham (Hampshire) that 292 — setles the mater. It is 20.5 cm high, so belongs to type Künzl 1.6.1 and bears the moto DAMERVM = give unmixed wine. This excludes the use of this large beaker as a mixing bowl (Moto: Collingwood/Wright 1994, no. 2498.5; ind: Millet/Graham 1986, 75 no. 32, ig. 51). Date: AD 300-355. 58 Künzl 1.6.2: 12 examples Medium sized decorated dark coloured beaker. Examples: B 67.1, B 177.1, B 722.2, B stray IV?, B stray 204, OO 28.2, OO 135.1, OO 147.1, OO 215.1, OO 314.1, OO 382.1, OO stray 21. Discussion: These medium sized beakers do not generally have the slim proportions that Künzl (1997, 22) ascribes to them. The decorative elements used (see above, under Künzl 1.4.1) are zone dividers 4, 9, 10 and 16, leter dividers 70 and 71, word dividers 57, 59 and 64, and tendrils 168, 188 and 189. All being decorated in white paint, they belong to Künzl’s chronological group V, dated AD 300/310-355. Date: AD 300-355. Fine dark coloured beaker, no data: 11 examples Examples: B 67.2, B 182.3, B 211.1, B stray 174, OO 271.1, OO 311.1, OO 321.2, OO stray 29-31, OO stray 319. 59 Künzl 14.1.1: 1 example Fine dark coloured moto-botle with wide neck and barbotine decoration in white and yellow. Example: B stray 128. Discussion: Künzl (1997, 34) remarks that most botles of her type 14.1.1 belong to chronological group IV (AD 280-310/315). This is conirmed for the Nijmegen botle by the use of white and yellow barbotine, which makes this stray ind one of the oldest pieces of potery from the Nijmegen Late Roman cemeteries. Künzl 14.1.1 corresponds to Symonds’ third-century group 50 (Symonds 1992, 56 and ig. 38-39). The function of the globular botles with funnelshaped necks is not discussed by Symonds and Künzl (but see Steures 2002a, 177-8). Symonds calls them surprisingly carafes. The painted mot- to PARCE on the Nijmegen botle (‘be sparing’, ‘just a bit’), seemingly is in stark contrast to the enthusiastic drinking motoes discussed above and betrays its function. This moto becomes understandable, if these botles were meant for water to be mixed with merum, the pure wine. In Künzl’s list (1997, 256) the word PARCE igures six times, three out of which in combination with AQVAM (‘be sparing with water’, ‘just a bit of water’). The only pouring vessels out of the six pieces with PARCE are two such botles. One of these has PARCE AQVAM ADIC MERVM: ‘be sparing with water, add pure wine’ (depicted by Symonds 1992, ig. 38, no. 702). The shape of these globular botles is particularly suited for keeping the water it contained hot. If one wanted to be sparing with water and at the same time make the wine in the beaker nice and warm, the water in the botle had to be boiling hot. The funnel shape of the neck is also particularly suited to pouring in and out boiling water without accidents. The strange absence of a handle on a botle that is very hot when in use might be explained by the wish to avoid accidents when pouring the boiling water. They were probably handled with something like oven gloves. The botles seem to have been a later invention than the beakers, because it is not clear whether they belonged to the irst series of the production of Trier moto-beakers (Künzl 1997, 34-5). I suggest that the workshops began to market them as soon as they had observed that boiling water was added in their beakers. Their botles were not the commercial success the beakers were: so far, 10 botles are known from Nijmegen, as opposed to the 343 beakers presented above. Date: AD 280-315. 60 Künzl 14.2.2: 4 examples Fine dark coloured globular botle decorated with white paint, comprising white dots on neck-moulding. Examples: B 81.3, B 681.1, OO 134.1, OO stray 62. Discussion: Künzl (1997, 34) places this type in 293 — chronological group V, dated 300/310-355 (Künzl 1997, 9). Künzl 14.2.2 corresponds to Symonds’ group 68 (Symonds 1992, 68, ig. 51) and with Gellep 254, dated in IVb by Pirling (1974, 46). Date: AD 300-355. 61 Künzl 14.3.1: 2 examples Fine dark coloured botle without neck-moulding, with white painted decoration. Examples: OO 188.2, OO stray 182. Discussion: The only moto-botle with narrow concave neck and without neck-moulding is Künzl 14.3.1 (Künzl 1997, 299, type plate 7); however, she knows the model only with barbotine decoration, in her third-century groups II and III. As appears from the white paint on the Nijmegen examples, they belong in chronological group V, dated 300/310-355 (Künzl 1997, 9). Date: AD 300-355. 62 Künzl 14.4.1: 1 example Fine dark coloured moto-botle with wide neck and neck-moulding. Example: B stray 137. Discussion: According to Künzl (1997, 34), most examples of this shape belong to the third century, but some, as appears from their white paint, to chronological group V, dated 300/310355. Our beaker with its white paint belongs to the later group. Date: AD 300-355. 63 Künzl 14.5: 4 examples Fine dark coloured globular botle with narrow cylindrical neck. Examples: B 197.2, B 512.1, B stray 168, OO stray 183. Discussion: This shape corresponds to Gellep 254. Künzl (1997, 34): ‘eine Gefäßform des 4. Jahrhunderts’; the Nijmegen examples belong to Künzl’s chronological group V, AD 300/310-355. B 197.2 has decoration in white and some yellow paint; this does occur in group V (Künzl 1997, 70). Date: AD 300-355. 64 Künzl 12.1.3: 3 examples Fine dark coloured one-handled jug with white painted decoration, which comprises white dots on neck moulding. Examples: B 234.4, B 741.5, OO stray 120. Discussion: Künzl 12.1.3 ‘shows all signs of being a series product’ and is to be dated to IVAB (Künzl 1997, 31). The type corresponds to Gellep 257 (Pirling 1974, 47), dated to IVab or IVAB. OO stray 120 has no proiled lip and so seems the be a hastily made series product. Date: AD 300-355. 65 Künzl 12.2.1: 3 examples Fine dark coloured one-handled moto-jug with smooth in-turned lip. Examples: OO 4.1, OO 63.2, OO 144.2. Discussion: Künzl (1997, 31-32) dates this jug IIIdIVab. Most pieces have white barbotine and belong to chronological group IV, but some, like the three Nijmegen examples, have white paint and so belong to group V, dated 300/310-355. Date: AD 300-355. 66 Künzl 12.3.1: 1 example Fine dark coloured one-handled moto-jug with smooth hooked lip. Examples: B 106.1. Discussion: Künzl (1997, 32, 298 type plate 6) distinguishes 12.3.1 and .2 from 12.2.1 and .2 by the shape of the lip, which is no longer in-turned, but is sharply hooked and everted. The mass of this shape was produced in her chronological group V, dated 300/310-355. The small B 106.1, which lacks its distinguishing upper half, seems nevertheless to belong to this type. B 702.5 is a small angular variant of Künzl 12.3.1 in a diferent ware, B3: see text to type ig. 42. Date: AD 300-355. 67 Nijmegen 67: 1 example Example: B 199.2. Fine dark coloured one-handled jug with wide mouth and pinched spout (not in Künzl). Discussion: This jug is unique within potery ware C4, but it has a general fourth-century shape we 294 — also encounter in other wares (Gellep 43 (= Chenet 348), Gellep 70, Gellep 80 (and Gellep 114, so far not present in Nijmegen): type igs. 40, 76 and 91). Potery ware and white paint show this jug to belong to chronological group V, dated 300/310-355 (Künzl 1997, 9). Date: AD 300-355. 68 Künzl 7.4: 2 examples Small ine dark coloured hemispherical bowl with white painted decoration. Examples: B stray 63, OO 176.5. Discussion: Künzl (1997, 25-26) mentions bowls of her shape 7 as the most frequent drinking vessels ater the globular beakers. This does not concur with the rarity of this shape in Nijmegen, where only six of them are known. She remarks that the numerous bowls of types 7.4 and 7.5 were produced up to or even ater the middle of the fourth century. Künzl 7.4 corresponds to Gellep 64, which Pirling (1966, 72) calls cylindrical and dates IVb and IVB. Pirling (1974, 47) dates Gellep 64 to IVab or IVB. Künzl 7.4 and 7.5 together correspond to Symonds 73 (1992, 69, 74 note 72, ig. 53). Symonds accepts Pirling’s date. Date: IVAB. 69 Künzl 7.5: 4 examples Small ine dark coloured cylindrical bowl with white painted decoration. Examples: B 248.1, B stray 290, OO stray 184-185. Discussion: See above, under Künzl 7.4 (type ig. 68), which corresponds to Gellep 64 (Pirling/ Siepen 2006, 95). Date: IVAB. D1 Ochre-coloured sherd, dull dirty reddish brown slip 70 Gellep 65: 2 examples Slipped coarse jug with pinched spout. Example: OO 242.2, OO stray 186. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 72) remarks that this shape is almost identical with Niederbieber 42 and that it appears from two Gellep graves that the shape was still made in the fourth century. Pirling (1974, 49-50) dates two new examples to IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 76) reallocates this type to ware A2, imitations of terra sigillata and dates most examples to IVab and an earlier one to IIIC. Date: IVab. D3 Light reddish brown sherd, ochre-coloured slip outside, dull dark reddish brown slip inside 71 Niederbieber 38: 1 example See Remainder stray 21 in Chapter 4, Catalogue of the stray inds. 72 Gellep 67: 2 examples Red-slipped plate with oblique band-shaped proiled lip. Examples: B 367.3, B 410.2. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 73) identiies this shape with Alzei 20 and dates six Gellep examples to IVab on the basis of coins. Pirling (1974, 50) dates seven new examples to IVab with the remark that examples associated with glazed pottery must be dated to IVB (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling (1979, 38) mentions one new example dated IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 101-2) identiies Trier as the place of manufacture and dates the type to IVAB. Date: IVAB. 73 Gellep 68: 1 example Red-slipped plate with oblique lip thickened horizontally on outside. Example: B stray 22. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 73) dates the only Gellep example to the beginning of IV on the basis of association with a Niederbieber shape and a fourth-century shape. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 102) dates the same grave to IVab. Date: IVab. 74 Gellep 69: 5 examples Red-slipped plate with oblique lip thickened obliquely on outside. Examples: B 216.3, B 222.2, B 345.1, OO 176.6, OO 295 — 242.1. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 73) dates this plate briefly to IVab. Pirling (1974, 50-51) mentions new examples from IIIcd, IVab and IVb. Pirling (1979, 38) dates new examples to as early as III, and to IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 102) calls the type contemporaneous to Gellep 67. Date: IIIcd-IVab. the dates of the frequent double-handled jugs Gellep 71 and Gellep 72, both IVab, justify this same half century as the date of Gellep 70. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 126-7) dates the type to IVAB but also mentions smaller examples, to be dated IVcd-Va. Almost all Gellep examples are also decorated with white paint or barbotine; four out of eight Nijmegen examples are. Date: IVab. E1 Brown-marbled potery 77 Nijmegen 77: 1 example Brown-marbled sharply shouldered jug with one handle and collar. Example: OO 58.1. Discussion: This shape is unique in Nijmegen and does not occur in Gellep in brown-marbled ware. Is it to be dated like the double-handled Gellep 72 to IVab. Date: IVab. Pirling (1966, 74-5) queries where this ware was made. She (Pirling 1974, 52-3) cites Oelmann (1914, 50), who situates the production of the brown-marbled ware in the Neuwied Basin on the middle Rhine, and mentions a workshop at Treis-Karden on the lower Moselle that made brown-marbled ware. Literature on Treis-Karden will be found via Cüppers (1990, 575-7). 75 Nijmegen 75: 1 example Brown-marbled mug. Example: OO stray 187. Discussion: Although this mug with its bandshaped vertical handle and conical neck has no parallel as such, its shape corresponds to the beakers Symonds 61 and its decoration with the brown-marbled technique discussed below. This dates the mug to IVab. Date: IVab. 76 Gellep 70: 8 examples Brown-marbled globular jug with pinched spout. Examples: B 176.4, B 456.2, B 686.3, B 760.1, B 762.intr., B stray 170, OO 151.3, OO 475.2. Discussion: This brown-marbled jug has the general fourth-century shape that we also encounter in other wares (Chenet 348, Gellep 43, Gellep 80, Gellep 114 and in ine dark coloured ware, type ig. 66) and that is to be dated generally to IV. Pirling (1966, 74) mentions one Gellep example, dated IV. Pirling (1974, 51) dates new examples ‘with some probability’ to IVab. Pirling (1979, 38-39) dates an example to IVB on the basis of association with coins of AD 341. However, 78 Gellep 261 or 742: 1 example Example: OO stray 18. Discussion: Brown-marbled globular jug with conical mouthpiece. Gellep 261 occurs once in Gellep, in red-marbled ware E2, in an incomplete example lacking the mouthpiece; this is reconstructed with a collar and a long mouth (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 127). Pirling (1974, 51) dates it to IVab on the basis of association with other potery. The Nijmegen example has the same ofset base as Gellep 261, but its mouthpiece is like that of Gellep 742, dated III-IVa (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 127). Date: IVab. 79 Gellep 71: 10 examples Brown-marbled double-handled jug with wide rounded shoulder and cylindrical neck with collar. Examples: B 86.2, B 177.3, B 697.2, B stray 8, B stray 71, B stray 132, B stray 300, OO stray 189190, Remainder stray 16. Discussion: The brown-marbled variant of this jug, which also occurs in smooth ware, has two horizontal grooves at the base of the neck between the beginnings of the handles. Pirling (1966, 74) draws atention to the diferences in 296 — size as opposed to the unity in shape and to the descendance from Niederbieber 46, and dates the jug to IVab. Pirling (1974, 51) repeats this date, with the note that the shape occurs up to the middle of IV, as appears from the association with a coin of AD 341. Pirling (1979, 39) repeats: IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 129) is more vague with a date in IV and mentions two size groups, 18-21 and 24-28 cm, with an outlier at 31 cm. The Nijmegen material has a group of six pieces 1622 cm and four outliers at 26, 29 (twice) and 32 cm. Date: IVab. 80 Gellep 72: 50 examples Brown-marbled double-handled jug with marked shoulder and cylindrical neck with collar. Examples: B 13.1, B 48.1, B 122.1, B 169.1, B 183.2, B 207.4, B 367.4, B 427.2, B 435.3, B 608.1, B 612.1 (= B stray 262), B 677.1, B 682.1, B 701.2, B 705. intr., B 723.3, B 741.6, B 754.1, B 810.2, B stray 43?, B stray 51, B stray 72, B stray 90-1, B stray 145, B stray 167, B stray 182, B stray 243-4, B stray 319, OO 103.1, OO 168.5, OO 170.2, OO 186.3, OO 250.1, OO 252.3, OO 290.1, OO 290.2, OO 351.2, OO 354.4, OO 475.3, OO stray 1, OO stray 63, OO stray 191-193, OO stray 195-197, OO stray 303, Remainder stray 10. Discussion: In Nijmegen, this frequent shape has two size groups: 33 pieces measure 21-27 cm, 9 pieces are 28-31 cm high with outliers as small as 12.7, 17 and 19 cm. This concurs well with the sizes mentioned by Pirling (1966, 74-5). Normally, there are two horizontal grooves at the base of the neck and two between the beginnings of the handle. Twelve Nijmegen examples have white dots on the shoulder, once in combination with a zigzag, once with small arcs. Pirling dates them IVabc: IVc on the basis of association with a Gellep 106 ‘with sickle-shaped proile’ (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131). Pirling (1974, 52-53) limits their date to IVab. Pirling (1979, 39) repeats the date of IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 129-30) dates the type to IVAB, but none of the coins associated with it in Gellep is later than AD 337. Date: IVab. 81 Nijmegen 81: 1 example Brown-marbled stopper for a Gellep 72. Example: Remainder stray 11. 82 Nijmegen 82: 1 example Brown-marbled stopper for a Gellep 71. Example: OO stray 194. It was found on jug Remainder stray 16, not on OO stray 193. Discussion: The two diferently shaped stoppers for jugs of types Gellep 71 and 72 are unique and unfortunately come from stray inds. Like Gellep 71-72, they are to be dated IVab. Date: IVab. 83 Nijmegen 83: 1 example Brown-marbled miniature amphora with globular body and wart-shaped point for a basis (miniature of Gellep 443) Example: OO stray 188. Discussion: This miniature amphora with white dots on the shoulder is unique. It imitates the shape of amphora Gellep 443 = Dressel 20 = Niederbieber 78 = Alzei 22 = Gose 442 = Stuart 138. Stuart (1963, 59) writes: ‘So the globular amphora covers a period of three centuries: c.AD 40-mid IV.’ The date of this miniature is IVab, as appears from the brown-marbled decoration. Another imitation of the shape in potery, also meant for the drinker’s table, is in Worms; it is of the same date as the Nijmegen example, but of another ware and another size (Wamser 2000, 191 ig. 157, 360 cat.no. 90d). Date: IVab. F1 Smooth potery with yellowish white sherd, smoothened carefully Roman smooth potery has a porous wall; evaporation of the liquid through the wall will require heat from the content, thus keeping it cool. 84 Gellep 408: 1 example Smooth high-shouldered honey-jar. 297 — Example: B 677.2. Discussion: Type Gellep 408 is only illustrated in Pirling (1989, type plate 5). Brunsting (1937, 109) remarks on the honey-jars, his type smooth 28: ‘The shape maintains itself without many alterations from the irst till the fourth centuries, cf. Haltern 62, Hofeim 66, but also Niederbieber 79.’ Pirling/Siepen (2006, 156) dates the type in Gellep only generally to III-IV and mentions as latest example one associated with glazed ware, to be dated IVB (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Date: I-IVB. 85 ± Gellep 411: 1 example Smooth high-shouldered white jar with everted rim and small horizontal unproiled lip. Example: OO stray 198. Discussion: No parallels are known to me. The real Gellep 411 has a proiled lip and is depicted but not discussed by Pirling (1989, type plate 5). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 155) dates the only Gellep piece to IVab. Date: IVab. 86 Gellep 75: 1 example Smooth lat-globular honey-jar with high neck. Example: OO 152.1. Discussion: The neck of our example is higher than in Pirling (1966, type plate 6). Pirling (1966, 76) dates one of the two examples known from Gellep at that time to IVB, on the basis of association with a piece of glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling (1974, 53) dates a new example to AD 320-350, on the same basis. A striking parallel for our fourth-century example is the irstcentury honey-jar Stuart 146 (Stuart 1977, ig. 50, 10) from irst-century cemetery O, partly on the same terrain as our fourth-century OO. Stuart (1977, 59) dates that example, on the basis of its white, smooth ‘pipe-clay’ and careful workmanship ‘not too late, probably mid irst-century at the latest’. Unless a irst-century piece has crept here between the fourth-century material (the irst-century cemetery O and the fourth-century cemetery OO overlap), we again have a form that continued for three centuries without alterations. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 157) dates the type in Gellep to IVab. Date: IVab. 87 Gellep 77: 4 examples Smooth jug with round lip. Examples: B 59.2, B stray 253, B stray 272, OO 413.1. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 76) dates this shape, which is identical with Niederbieber 62a, to IIIcd, on the basis of association with a Gellep 56. Pirling (1974, 54) publishes four new examples from three graves, two of which are dated to IIIcd on the basis of coins and a Gellep 282, and the third to IV, on the basis of potery and a glass beaker Gellep 189. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 142-3, n. 56) drops former types Gellep 264, 416, 417, 419 and 619 and subsumes them under Gellep 77, which is dated generally to III, with only one example certainly from IV. Date: IIIcd-IVd. 88 Gellep 422: 1 example Smooth jug with one handle and undercut torus-shaped rim. Example: B stray 274. Discussion: Pirling/Siepen (2006, 143) dates the type to the same time as Gellep 77. Date: IIIcd-IVd. 89 Gellep 423: 3 examples Smooth jug with lip that is convex on top and lat at the underside. Examples: B stray 273, B stray 276, B stray 277. Discussion: Pirling/Siepen (2006, 140) dates the type to IIcd-IIIab. Date: IIcd-IIIab. 90 Gellep 79: 2 examples Smooth jug with strongly constricted foot and horizontal painted bands. Examples: OO 316.3, OO stray 199. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 77) dates the only Gellep example to IVab, on the basis of association with 298 — a coin of Constantine the Great and fourthcentury glass and potery. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 145) subsumes the former types Gellep 79-80 under one type, dated to IVab. Date: IVab. 91 Gellep 80: 3 examples Smooth jug with slightly constricted foot, four reddish brown painted horizontal bands and pinched spout. Examples: B 215.2, B 708.2, OO stray 35. Discussion: This smooth jug has the general fourth-century shape we also encounter in Gellep 43 (type ig. 40), Gellep 70 (type ig. 76), Gellep 114 and ine dark coloured potery, type ig. 66, and is therefore dated to IV. Pirling (1966, 77) remarks that red bands occur in IVab, and that associations of the Gellep examples lead to the same date. Pirling (1974, 54) repeats this date for three examples, while she dates a fourth one to IVB. A last example is dated to IVab again by Pirling (1979, 40). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 145) subsumes the former types Gellep 79-80 under one type, dated to IVab. Date: IVab. 92 Gellep 81(/82): 3 examples Smooth jug with painted horizontal bands and band-shaped lip. Examples: B 150.2, B 334.1, OO 244.1. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 77) dates three examples to IVab on the basis of decoration and associations. Pirling (1974, 40) dates one example to IVb on the basis of a coin, and two other examples IVab. Pirling (1979,40) dates an example to IVB because of association with a Gellep 122 (IVcd, according to Pirling; see however the discussion of Gellep 122, type ig. 151). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 145-6) dates both Gellep 81 and 82 to IVab and says they were manufactured in Cologne. Date: IVab. 93 Gellep 263: 3 examples Smooth jug with brown bands and cylindrical mouthpiece. Examples: B 801.1, B stray 270, OO 383.2. Discussion: Pirling (1974, 53-54) dates one example to IVAB because of association with with a Gellep 109, and two others to IVB. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 146) dates the type to IVAB and says it was manufactured in Cologne. Date: IVAB. 94 Gellep 83a: 1 example Smooth slender jug with moulding on neck and with thumb-rest on handle. Example: OO stray 200. 95 Gellep 83b: 1 example Smooth slender jug with moulding on neck and without thumb-rest on handle. Example: B 764.5. Discussion: This jug, which imitates metal examples, is dated to IIIcd-IVab by Pirling (1966, 78). Our example of Gellep 83a has a proiled rim instead of the hooked one shown by Pirling (1966, type plate 7). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 146) dates the type to IV, especially IVab. Date: IVab. 96 Nijmegen 96: 1 example Smooth jug with conical mouthpiece. Example: B 183.3. Discussion: According to Oelmann conical mouthpieces are typical of III (Pirling 1966, 58, in the discussion of Gellep 20), but the presence of such a mouthpiece on Gellep 261 (type ig. 78) shows it to go on in IVab. Date: III-IVab. 97 Gellep 84a: 8 examples Smooth double-handled jug with smooth lip. Examples: B 59.3, B 218.3, B 742.3, B stray 93, OO 176.7, OO stray 202-204. 98 Gellep 84b: 1 example Example: B 218.4. Smooth double-handled jug with proiled lip. Discussion: In Nijmegen these jugs vary even more in height than Pirling (1966, 78) states: 11.9-28.4 cm. She dates the shape from ‘still III’ to ‘entire IV’ for Cologne examples, but IVab for 299 — Gellep ones. Pirling (1974, 54-5) repeats IVab for nine examples. Pirling (1979, 41) gives again IVab for one example, and IVB for another. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 151-2) dates the type to IIId-IVB and says it was manufactured in Cologne. Date: IIId-IVB. 99 Gellep 85a: 7 examples Smooth white double-handled jug with small cylindrical foot, hooked shoulder and triangular lip. Examples: B 704.3, B stray 92, OO stray 205-209. Discussion: The Gellep examples are very smoothly inished. Pirling (1966, 79) dates one example to IVab, and two others to IVB. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 152) dates the type to IV and says it was the container for expensive imported wine. This its in well with the only example found during excavations in Nijmegen: B 704 is a comparatively rich grave with unique pieces. Date: IVAB. 100 Gellep 91: 2 examples Smooth globular double-handled jug with bandshaped lip. Examples: B 59.4, OO stray 210. Discussion: One Gellep example is dated to just ater AD 298 by Pirling (1966, 80-1) because of a series of coins ending in that year (‘terminus ad quem’); two in the beginning of IV, one IVab, one IVB. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 168-9) dates the type IIIcd-IVB. Date: IVAB. 101 Gellep 441 (= Stuart 151A): 1 example Smooth stopper for an amphora Example: OO stray 211. Discussion: Pirling (1989, type plate 8, Gellep 441) depicts this type with its open side down and thus interprets it as a stopper; she did not discuss types any more in 1989. Stuart calls his type 151A a candle-stick (Stuart 1963, 67-8), ater which he immediately doubts his own interpretation. A burning candle on such a narrow foot is dangerous; a diferent function seems obvious. As Stuart mentions eleven examples from the nearby Nijmegen Flavian legionary fortress (AD 70-104), our ind must be irst-century (the irstcentury cemetery O and the fourth-century cemetery OO overlap). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 171-2) dates the two Gellep examples Id-IId. So our example probably comes from the irst-century cemetery O, not the fourth-century OO on the same plot. Date: Ic-IId. F2Smooth potery, reddish ochre-coloured sherd 102 Gellep 87: 1 example Smooth squat globular beaker with conical neck. Example: B 16.2. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 79) dates the only Gellep example to IVcd because of association with a terra nigra beaker. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 160) repeats the date. Date: IVcd. 103 Gellep 89: 1 example Smooth jug with hooked lip. Example: OO 271.2. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 80) remarks that this shape may also occur in white smooth ware and then is to be dated IVab because of painted horizontal bands. However, she dates the only datable example of Gellep 89 to IVB because of association with a Gellep 70 and a Gellep 106 ‘with slightly sickle-shaped proile’ (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 164) dates the type to IVab. Date: IVab. 104 Nijmegen 104: 2 examples Smooth brown single-handled jug with collar, shaped like the brown-marbled Gellep 71. Examples: B 201.2, B 212.2. Discussion: The shape of this smooth brown onehandled jug is that of the two-handled brownmarbled Gellep 71 and the smooth brown twohandled Gellep 637. The date of Gellep 637 300 — (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 168) is helpful: IIIcd-IVab. Date: IIIcd-IVab. 105 Gellep 637: 2 examples Smooth brown double-handled jug with collar, shaped like the brown-marbled Gellep 71. Examples: B 191.2, OO stray 312. Discussion: This double-handled jug shaped like the brown-marbled Gellep 71 is not discussed by Pirling (1997, type plate 8), and is to be dated, like Gellep 71, to IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 168) dates it to IIIcd-IVab. Date: IVab. 106 Nijmegen 106: 1 example Smooth double-handled jug with short wide neck and band-shaped lip. Example: OO stray 201. Discussion: As there is no parallel known for this shape and as it is a stray ind, the only basis for a date in IVab is its provenance ‘OO’. Date: IVab. 109 Brunsting 36b: 3 examples Smooth mortarium with horizontal lip, without protruding spout. Examples: B stray 24, OO stray 257-258. Discussion: Brunsting (1937, 110-1) dates the smooth mortarium from Haltern 60 (11 BC- AD 9) to Alzei 31 (AD 370-400; 406-450). Stuart (1963, 66-7), whose type 149b this is, discusses only irst-century examples. Pirling (1989 type plate 8, Gellep 442) and 1997 (type plate 14, Gellep 683) gives two type numbers to smooth mortaria with horizontal lip and protruding spout (both Brunsting 36a) but does not discuss them. Of the three mortaria mentioned here, B stray 20 comes certainly from a fourth-century grave, as it was found in the Kaaskorversgas (site b on ig. 3; the other two are marked ‘OO’. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 227-8) discusses the mortaria from Gellep, but our type is not represented. Date: IB-Vb. F3 Smooth potery, dark grey sherd 107 Gellep 766: 1 example Smooth brown double-handled jug shaped like the brown-marbled Gellep 72. Example: B stray 43 Discussion: This smooth brown double-handled jug shaped like the brown-marbled Gellep 72 is to be dated, like Gellep 72, to IVab. The type seems not to be discussed in Pirling/Siepen 2006. Date: IVab. 108 Gellep 438 (= Niederbieber 69a): 1 example Smooth double-handled jug with globular body and slanting lip. Example: B stray 94. Discussion: This shape, not discussed by Pirling (1989, type plate 8, Gellep 438) is represented by this stray ind and looks like Niederbieber 69a; therefore to be dated III. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 167) dates the type to IIIab. Date: IIIab. 110 Gellep 96: 1 example Small barrel-shaped beaker. Example: B stray 209. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 68-69 under type Gellep 55) discusses barrel-shaped beakers from irst to fourth centuries; she dates a Gellep 96 to IVB (Pirling 1966, 82) because of association with a Gellep 105 ‘with sickle-shaped proile’ (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 178) dates the graves concerned in Gellep to IVab. Date: IVab. F4 Smooth potery, brownish grey sherd 111 Gellep 97: 7 examples Coarse botle. Examples: B 16.3, B 100.1, B 778.1, B stray 16, B stray 211, B stray 216, B stray 226. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 82) dates the only Gellep example to Valentinian age, i.e. IVC, on the basis 301 — of an Andernach parallel, but decides to IVcd. The Valentinian age its in well with the Valentinian coins found in B 778.1. It should be noted that most Nijmegen examples are not in smooth, but in coarse ware. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 173) dates the only Gellep example to IVd. Date: IVcd. 112 Nijmegen 112: 1 example Smooth double-handled jug with wide rounded shoulder and horizontal lip. Example: Remainder stray 12. Discussion: This jug has all but the same shape as Gellep 71 (IVab) and Gellep 637: what is a collar there, is the lip here. The neck with the horizontal lip is shaped the same as Niederbieber 69, so a date IIIcd-IVab seems possible. Date: IIIcd-IVab. F7 Terra nigra 113 Gellep 98: 1 example Jug with collared neck. Example: B stray 190. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 82-3) cannot date the only Gellep example. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 183-4) dates it generally to IV. Date: IV. 114 Gellep 273: 1 example Terra nigra footed bowl with proiled foot and three zones of incised decoration. Example: OO 446.1. Discussion: Pirling (1974, 57) dates the only Gellep example to IVab on the basis of a coin of AD 313. The shape corresponds to Chenet 342, which Chenet (1941, 92) dates to IVcd because it occurs in Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated to just before AD 360 on the basis of 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 189) dates the type to IVcd. See also the last paragraph of the article on Gellep 274, immediately below. Date: IVcd. 115 Gellep 274: 10 examples Small terra nigra footed bowl. Examples: B 135.2, B 299.1, B 465.3, B 687.2, B 702.1, B 801.2, B 828.1, B stray 214, B stray 267, OO 481.1. Discussion: This is a diicult type, as it was three times deined by Pirling (1966, 67-8 and 128-30; 1974, 57), twice for Roman (Gellep 51 and 274) and once for Frankish graves (Gellep 131). Pirling (1966, 68) identiies type Gellep 51 with Chenet 342 (Chenet 1941, 91-94). An interesting detail is that the German archaeologist Pirling derives it from Germanic examples, and the Frenchman Chenet from Gaulish ones. The truth seems to lie midway: in the Rhine area, as Chenet himself (1941, 92 note 2) argues. About its date and provenance, Chenet (1941, 92) says it was produced in Lavoye in IV. He knows it from Lavoye, Sépulture A, dated to just before AD 360 on the basis of 215 coins (Chenet 1941, 20 and 154); from Lavoye, the small hypocaust of ield 752 (IV, dated by coins of Constantinus II 337340, Theodora 337-340, Constans 337-350, Urbs Roma ater 340, Magnentius 350-351: Chenet 1941, 26-27); and from Lavoye, kiln E, dated IV (Chenet 1941, 24). Pirling (1966, 68) has a Gellep 51 from IIIcd; Pirling (1966, 129) has some examples of Gellep 131 from Vab and VB. Pirling (1974, 93-4) has examples of Gellep 131 from Frankish phases II and III, i.e. Vcd-VIa and VIbcd (Pirling 1966, 22). Pirling/Siepen (2006) no longer mentions either type Gellep 51 or 131 as Roman, but Gellep 274 is treated (2006, 189) and mostly dated to IVab and once to IVB. However, in the Nijmegen grave B 135, a Gellep 274 is associated with a Gellep 52 (discussed immediately below), to be dated IVd-Va; and in grave B 465, dated to AD 434-450, Gellep 274 also igures. So Gellep 274, a shape also found in Frankish potery, must at least be dated IVa-Vb for Roman graves, and for Frankish ones up to VId. Footed bowls Chenet 342 and Gellep 252, 273 and 274 cross the border between Roman and Germanic potery. Erdrich (1998) argues that these terra nigra footed bowls combine techni- 302 — cal and formal stimuli from Roman and Germanic examples and that Frankish immigrants in the Roman Empire combined Roman techniques with Germanic shapes. He calls the footed bowls a potery genre of the Salian Franks. Date: IVa-VId. 116 Gellep 52-53: 2 examples Globular beaker of not completely dark, but smooth terra nigra with proiled shoulder and short concave neck. Examples: B 135.1, B stray 221. Discussion: Beaker B 135.1 is halfway between beaker types Gellep 52 and Gellep 53, which Pirling (1966, 68) inds comparable and contemporary. She dates both to IVd because of the association of one of them with a barbaric coin of c.AD 400. But there is also an exact parallel for the shape of B 135.1: Symonds 1992, 67 and ig. 50 no. 854, from Roanne. This belongs to the heterogeneous group Symonds 64, generally dated to IV; this group also contains an exact parallel for the shape of Gellep 52: no. 855, in Mainz. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 180) dates both types to IVd-Va. Date: IVd-Va. 117 ± Chenet 333j: 1 example Small tulip-shaped beaker of terra nigra-like sandy potery. Example: B 606.1. Discussion: Chenet (1941, Pl. XVI-XVII and 81-4) distinguished his type 333 (footed tulip-shaped beakers with reddish yellow slip and constricted foot) in the long series 333a-k. Our beaker is of terra nigra-like potery and has no foot. The nearest Gellep shape is the terra sigillata Gellep 17, dated by Pirling/Siepen (2006, 47) IVcd-Va. Date: IVcd-Va. 118 Symonds 61 in diferent variants in terra nigra: 6 examples Terra nigra beaker on narrow foot, globular body and high conical neck. Symonds 61 smooth: 4 examples Examples: B 387.2, OO stray 112-114. Symonds 61 grooved: 1 example Example: OO 468.1. Symonds 61 incised: 1 example Example: OO stray 138. Symonds 61 with incised groove: 1 example Example: OO stray 115. Discussion: These are beakers of a common shape in ine dark coloured ware, executed here in terra nigra. As the production of dark coloured Trier beakers stopped in AD 355 (see above, potery ware C4), we might date these imitations to IVcd. However, the corresponding types in Pirling/Siepen, Gellep 646 (2006, 176) and Gellep 270 (2006, 177), are dated in the same time as the same shapes in ware C4. Date: IV. 119 Symonds 62 in terra nigra: 2 examples Indented beakers in terra nigra with narrow foot, globular indented body and high conical neck. Examples: OO stray 116-7. Discussion: For these, the same holds as for the above Symonds 61 in terra nigra. The corresponding type in Pirling/Siepen (2006, 180) is Gellep 94, dated IVd-Va. Date: IVd-Va. 120 Symonds 65 in terra nigra: 1 example Small beaker in terra nigra with low shoulder and conical neck. Example: OO stray 118. Discussion: Symonds 65 is dated globally in IV and belongs to the group of late terra nigra (Symonds 1992, 67-68 and ig. 50, nos 857-863). Symonds remarks that this shape was not popular outside Trier. The presence of just a single example in Nijmegen does not contradict this. Date: IV. 121 Gellep 378: 1 example Small tulip-shaped terra nigra beaker. Example: OO 132.1. Discussion: Pirling (1989) says nothing about this type but the caption of type plate 3: in Gellep, it is of potery ware C4 reddish brown sherd, faintly lustrous greyish black coating. The parallel as 303 — regards the shape in Symonds (1992, no. 641, ig. 35 and p. 54-5) belongs to Symonds’ group 43 from Trier, which was made in this ware. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 93-94) dates the ine dark coloured type to III-IVa. Date: IV. 122 Nijmegen 122: 1 example Terra nigra two-handled jug with globular body, wide neck and wide vertical band-shaped lip decorated with straight and wavy grooves. Example: OO 144.4. Discussion: There is no parallel for this shape in the literature known to me. Only the vertical band-shaped lip is reminiscent of fourth century jugs Gellep 45 and related types. The other inds in grave OO 144 date the grave to 300-355. Date: AD 300-355. 123 Nijmegen 123: 1 example Small hemispherical terra nigra bowl on low foot. Example: B stray 95. Discussion: This is a variant in a diferent potery ware of Symonds 55, which is not explicitly dated, but implicitly to III (Symonds 1992, 59 and ig. 43). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 83) dates Gellep 367 (= Symonds 55) to IIIAB. Date: ? 124 Alzei 26: 1 example Terra nigra footed bowl with everted rim. Example: B stray 96. Discussion: Its presence in Alzei, which was inhabited AD 370-400 and 406-450 (Cüppers 1990, 302-3), dates this form to IVd-Vab. Date: IVd-Vab. G Coarse potery Coarse potery is ire-proof and was used for cooking in the case of cooking-pots Gellep 100110 and for dishes Gellep 126-128 and related types. These oten have burning-marks on the outside; cooking-pots also oten have black traces of burnt food on the inside. Pirling calls Gellep 126-128 and related types plates; in this study, they are called dishes. I interpret the dishes as baking-dishes and the jugs as water boilers. Wherever possible, a distinction is made in the present study between three production centres in the Eifel (Gose 1950, 40): coarse volcanic tempering material, from Mayen; large quantity of ine tempering material, from Urmitz; greyish brown sherd, from Speicher. 125 Gellep 100: 3 examples Coarse cooking-pot with marked and concave neck. Examples: B stray 6, OO 482.1, OO stray 293. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 83) mentions four Gellep examples made in Mayen, two of which are datable: one to IVa by a coin, one to IVB by association with glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling (1979, 42) dates a new example to IVcd because of a coin of AD 346. The Nijmegen examples also have the coarse volcanic temper typical of Mayen. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 193) subsumes types Gellep 100 and 101 in one type 100/101, dated IVBC. Date: IVBC. 126 Gellep 101: 1 example Coarse cooking-pot with marked and concave neck and low vertical lip. Example: B 674.4. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 83) dates the only Gellep example to IVBC because of association with a Gellep 99; it is Mayen ware. Pirling (1979, 42-43) bases the date of a new example found without other grave goods on that of 1966: IVBC. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 193) subsumes types Gellep 100 and 101 in one type 100/101, dated IVBC. Date: IVBC. 127 ± Gellep 102: 2 examples Coarse jar with marked and conical neck. Examples: B stray 77, OO stray 212. 304 — Discussion: Pirling (1966, 84) has ive Gellep examples, two of which she dates to IVab, and a third one implicitly later, because of association with a Gellep 106 ‘with sickle-shaped proile’: IVB (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131). Pirling (1974, 58) dates a new example to IVcd because of association with a Gellep 120 and a Gellep 122 (see however the discussion of Gellep 122, type ig. 151). Pirling (1979, 43) dates an example to IVAB because of association with a Symonds 61; and a second one to IVB because of association with a glazed piece (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 194) dates the type to IV. Date: IVAB. 128 Gellep 103: 3 examples Coarse indented cooking-pot. Examples: B 482.2, OO stray 213-214. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 84) dates an example to IVB because of association with a glazed piece (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling (1974, 58) arrives at the same date for a new example on the same basis. Pirling (1979, 43) dates a new specimen to IVcd because of association with a heart-shaped strap end. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 194-5) dates the type IVBC. Date: IVBC. 129 Gellep 104: 3 examples Coarse cooking-pot with wide mouth and everted lip. Examples: B stray 47, B stray 203, OO stray 215. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 84) cites Hussong (1936, 78): the shape begins end of IV and lives on in Frankish context. She is not able to date three Gellep examples from Mayen with more precision. Pirling/Siepen (2006) does not seem to discuss this type as Roman any more. Date: IVd-V. 130 Gellep 105: 44 examples Coarse cooking-pot with everted lip and lidseating. Examples: B 11.1, B 54.5, B 88.3, B 150.5, B 165.2, B 182.6, B 189.3, B 216.6, B 219.5, B 243.1, B stray 9-10, B stray 46, B stray 68, B stray 69, B stray 99, B stray 103, OO 2.1, OO 9.3, OO 25.2, OO 30.3, OO 40.2, OO 40.3, OO 63.4, OO 69.2, OO 71.1, OO 101.3, OO 101.4, OO 116.1, OO 131.2, OO 133.3, OO 144.5, OO 169.2, OO 169.3, OO 176.8, OO 186.4, OO 200.5, OO 232.2, OO 249.1, OO 287.1, OO 299.3, OO 469.2, OO 475.4, OO stray 217. Discussion: Gellep 105, like Gellep 106 and Gellep 122, is a source of too late dates in Pirling’s studies. This cooking-pot, derived from Niederbieber 89 and further developing into Alzei 27, has many diferent lip proiles. Oelmann (1914, 72) and Unverzagt (1916, discussion of Alzei 27) had already remarked that the lip proiles of this cooking-pot of III and IV cannot be chronologically distinguished from one another. Pirling changes her mind on this type twice between her studies of 1966, 1974 and 1979. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 225-7) again takes a diferent view, cites the heated debate on rim shapes and even splits the type up into Gellep 460 ‘with lidseating (also known as heart-shaped proile)’, present from Gellep grave 3475 up to 6351, and Gellep 105 ‘with everted rim’, for which the term ‘sickle-shaped proile’ is no longer present in the deinition but lingers on in the discussion. This spliting up of the type is not followed here for the simple reason that the so-called heartshaped proile does igure frequently within type Gellep 105 in Pirling’s earlier Gellep publications, i.e. in many graves with numbers lower than 3475. In 1966 (84-7), Pirling follows Von Petrikovits (1937), who opposes Unverzagt and sketches a development from a ‘fading of the heart-shaped proile’ (with a quarter-round moulding, Viertelrundstab, under the lip) via a ‘sharp-sided proile’ (with a sharp moulding, Dreikantstab, under the lip) to a ‘sickle-shaped proile’ (without moulding under the lip). Pirling shows (1966, 85, ig. 10) seventeen variants of the proile, numbered a-r, which she tries to order chronologically; this fails already at proile a. In 1974, Pirling (1974, 58-60) cites a diferent 305 — classiication, by Fellmann (1952), and concludes that it opposes that of Von Petrikovits. She does not agree with either on the basis of coin-dated inds at Gellep, but still believes in a global development ‘heart-shaped - sharp-sided - sickleshaped’. At the same time, she does not want to force them into a chronological scheme. In 1979 (Pirling 1979, 43-4), the use of Fellmann’s scheme leads to an improbable result. Her last words on the question are: ‘It is becoming clearer all the time that the proiles difer very much from one another and that they do hardly allow of a chronological scheme.’ She does not, however, draw the conclusion she should have drawn: Oelmann and Unverzagt were right, and the lip proile of Gellep 105 cannot be used for dating associated inds. All Pirling’s late dates for other types on the basis of association with a ‘sickle-shaped proile’ of Gellep 105 must be dropped. Gellep 105 itself, however, can be dated through association with coins and other potery. Pirling (1966, 86) has one Gellep 105 in a grave that could be dated ‘still in III’ because of three jugs Gellep 84. A grave with a Gellep 105 and a coin of Constantine is dated IVab. Other graves with Gellep 105 are dated to IVB, among other things because of association with a piece of glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling (1974, 59-60) mentions coins dated from AD 303 to 330-335 in graves with a Gellep 105. Pirling (1979, 43) mentions a grave with a coin of AD 313 and one with potery of IVab date. The type is dated by coins in only two Nijmegen graves: AD 295 (grave B 219) and AD 299-303 (grave OO 176). Sixteen graves with more than one artefact, one of which a Gellep 105, have IVab dates (B 54, B 150, B 182, B 189, B 216, B 219, OO 25, OO 71, OO 133, OO 144, OO 169, OO 186, OO 200, OO 232, OO 249, OO 475), whereas six such graves have a date of IVAB not depending on a Gellep 105 alone (B 88, OO 9, OO 30, OO 101,OO 299, OO 469). This brings us to a date of IIId-IVB for cookingpot Gellep 105 (and Gellep 460, which is not rec- ognized here as a type in its own right). NB The presence of shoes in the large jar of this type in grave OO 63 makes it probable that the jar further contained clothes, and certain that it did not contain food. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 225) cites Haupt (1984, 448-9), who says that large pots were made for special agrarian and manufacturing uses. Date: IIId-IVB. 131 Gellep 106: 50 examples Coarse cooking-pot with handle, everted lip an lid-seating. Examples: B 57.2, B 59.5, B 67.3, B 81.4, B 94.2, B 151.3, B 181.3, B 184.1, B 189.4, B 196.3, B 197.3, B 200.1, B 203.1, B 206.2, B 218.5, B 228.1, B 234.5, B 293.3, B 301.1, B 355.1, B 421.1, B 730.2, B stray 21, B stray 48, B stray 52, B stray 74, B stray 100 (lid B stray 101 belongs to it), B stray 104, B stray 105, B stray 162, B stray 184, OO 62.3, OO 71.2, OO 90.1, OO 102.3, OO 145.1, OO 149.2, OO 152.2, OO 168.6, OO 197.1, OO 411.1, OO 476.2, OO 476.3, OO stray 8, OO stray 218-222, OO stray 310. Discussion: Gellep 106, like Gellep 105 and Gellep 122, is a source of too late dates in Pirling’s studies. Pirling (1966, 87) writes: ‘Apart from the presence of an eye-shaped handle, these jars correspond to those of type 105. If one wanted to lit the jar by means of this handle, it could not be allowed to be large. So the jars of type 106 are smaller on average than those without handle of type 105. The proiles of the jars with handle vary even more than those without.’ (Transl.: D.St.) She shows nineteen variants of the proile of Gellep 106, numbered a-t (Pirling 1966, 87, ig. 11). She remarks that the ‘heart-shaped’ proile with the quarter-round moulding under the lip is absent, that the ‘sharp-sided’ proile with the sharp moulding under the lip occurs only twice, and that the remainder has ‘sickle-shaped’ proiles without moulding under the lip, in all sorts of variants. She considers them on average somewhat later than Gellep 105. She can date two examples: one by a coin of AD 306, the oth- 306 — er by Frankish personal ornaments of her phases II and III (c.425-525 and c.525-600: Pirling 1966, 22). As with Gellep 105, the denial follows in 1974 (Pirling 1974, 60-61): ‘heart-shaped, sharp-sided and sickle-shaped’ appear to be contemporaneous. So also all Pirling’s late dates on the basis of association with a Gellep 106 of ‘sickle-shaped’ proile must be dropped. She then dates Gellep 106 by means of coins of AD 313 and 323. Pirling (1979, 44) has three dates for Gellep 106: by a coin of AD 307, by a piece of glazed potery of IVB (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above), and by a west-east orientation of a grave, ‘so’ from IVcd. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 197-8) no longer distinguishes between ‘heart-shaped’ and ‘sickleshaped’ proiles and dates the cooking-pots of light colour and small particles of tempering material ‘throughout the period’, the other wares to IV. Only one Nijmegen grave with a Gellep 106 has a coin date: AD 301-303, grave OO 149); ive other have earlier coins ranging from I BC to AD II (B 59, B 67, B 203, B 218, OO 168). Sixteen graves with more than one artefact, one of which a Gellep 106, have IVab context dates (B 59, B 151, B 181, B 184, B 189, B 196, B 197, B 206, B 228, B 730, OO 71, OO 102, OO 149, OO 152, OO 168, OO 197), whereas nine such graves have a context date of IVAB not depending on a Gellep 106 alone (B 57, B 67, B 81, B 94, B 203, B 234, B 293, OO 62, OO 476). This makes the date for Gellep 106: IVAB (with late representants IVcd-VId, apparently not occurring in Nijmegen). Date: IVAB. 132 Nijmegen 132: 1 example Coarse lat lid without rim proile and lat knob. Example: OO stray 229. Discussion: No parallel known. Date: ? 133 Gose 564: 2 examples Coarse lid with low rim-proile and conical knob, lat on top. Examples: B stray 97, B stray 101. Discussion: Gose (1950, 47) dates this lid to IIIcd. However, B stray 101 was found on a Gellep 106 and is therefore to be dated IVAB. Date: IVAB. 134 ± Gellep 483: 1 example Coarse lid with lightly indented rim, convex wall and lat knob. Example: OO stray 259. Discussion: No real parallels for this large lid, d 21, are known to me. The Gellep 483 which Pirling (1989, type plate 14) depicts is not discussed there. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 210) dates the only example in Gellep to IIIab. Date: ? 135 Gellep 108: 4 examples Coarse cooking-pot with marked, somewhat narrow neck. Examples: B 98.2, B 258.1, B 465.4, B stray 56. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 88-89) mentions a Gellep 108 from a grave with a coin to be dated ater AD 364. Three examples outside Gellep lead to her date: from IVd onwards. Pirling (1979, 44-45) repeats this date for two new examples: one from a west-east grave, one from a grave with glass beakers of IVd date. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 200) dates the shape to IVd until Frankish times, but cites a coin dated AD 364 associated with Gellep 108. Our example B 98.2, however, is associated with a coin of AD 310 and a Symonds 61, dated IVAB, in an east-west grave. So Gellep 108 igures already in IVB; or, when the coin dating-rules used in the present study are applied, grave B 98 even dates within coin periods 2 and 3, i.e. between the date of the coin, AD 310, and AD 330. I therefore date grave B 98 to AD 330 and type Gellep 108 to AD 330-V. Date: AD 330-V. 136 Gellep 109: 46 examples Coarse cooking-pot with marked concave neck and vertical handle. 307 — Examples: B 250.2, B 319.3, B 344.1, B 482.3, B 715.2, B 723.intr, B 757.1, B 760.2, B 764.6, B 773.2, B 779.4, B 786.1, B 792.2, B 817.1, B 820.2, B 827.1, B stray 102, B stray 163, B stray 172, B stray 202, B stray 212, B stray 218, B stray 225, OO 24.1, OO 37.1, OO 42.2, OO 56.3, OO 83.1, OO 273.2, OO 276.1, OO 308.2, OO 322.2, OO 322.3, OO 361.1, OO 373.1, OO 423.1, OO 433.2, OO 472.3, OO 483.3, OO stray 223-228, OO stray 317. Discussion: This common handled cooking-pot derives from Niederbieber 95. Pirling (1966, 89) dates most examples to IVAB and gives coindatings of AD 326 and 348. Associations with a Gellep 104 and a Gellep 52 lead to a date of IVcd: so it occurs throughout IV. Pirling (1974, 61-62) has associations with coins of AD 305, 313, 317, 320, 330 and 346: IVAB, whereas Pirling (1979, 45) has associations with coins of AD 332 and 333 (2x), twice with glazed potery from IVB (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above), once with a glass pointed beaker Gellep 185 and a heart-shaped belt-tongue of IVcd. Again: throughout IV. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 199) again dates the shape throughout IV. In Nijmegen graves, the shape igures eight times in IVab (B 319, B 760, B 764, B 779, B 820, OO 42, OO 361, OO 433), twelve times in IVAB (B 482, B 827, OO 24, OO 37, OO 56, OO 308, OO 322 (2x), OO 373, OO 423, OO 472, OO 483), twice together with the disputed type Gellep 122 (B 344, B 715) and three times together with the long-lived type Gellep 34 (B 250, B 773, B 792). In Nijmegen too, the shape may have been used througout IV, but its use in IVC cannot be proven or refuted. Date: IV. 137 Gellep 110: 2 examples Coarse cooking-jar with vertical handle and slightly concave neck. Examples: OO 463.5, OO stray 320. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 89) cannot date this cooking-pot, as it is twice the only artefact in the grave. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 200) has one example dated by a coin of 340 and dates the type to IVcd. Date: IVcd. 138 Gellep 111: 2 examples Coarse indented beaker with cylindrical neck. Examples: B 114.1, B stray 206. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 90) remarks that this beaker has the model of the ine dark coloured beakers, and she cites one example, which is dated to IVd by a coin of AD 375. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 195) repeats this date. Date: IVd. 139 Gose 545: 1 example Large coarse jar with lid-seating. Example: OO 106.1. Discussion: Although this jar has the shape of Gellep 105 (see remark there), its size is enormous (h 31.7, d 33.3). Gose (1950, 46) dates an example from Trier, Altbachtal to IVA. Date: IVA. 140 Nijmegen 140: 1 example Coarse small yellow and pink beaker. Example: B 80.3. Discussion: This beaker of yellow and pink coarse ware, and Gellep 93 of greyish black smooth ware have the shape of Symonds 61. Pirling (1966, 81-82) does not date the only Gellep example. However, she does date Gellep 94, of the same greyish black ware and with the indented form of Symonds 62, to IVd-Va, because of its association with a belt with animals’ heads and with a glass beaker Gellep 192. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 178) dates the type to IVab. Our example, however, is associated with two IVAB shapes: a Symonds 61 and a Gellep 41. Date: IVAB. 141 Gellep 496: 2 examples Coarse crucible-shaped beaker. Examples: B stray 236?, OO 19.1. Discussion: Pirling (1989, type plate 14) depicts this beaker without discussing it. It already occurs as Niederbieber 119, so it already exists in IIIAB. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 218) dates the only Gellep example to IVab (it is accompanied by a 308 — coin of AD 308), Mayen-made examples to IVcd and examples from graves in Mayen to IVC. Date: IIIA-IVC. 142 Gellep 673: 1 example Coarse jug with wide base, narrow neck and pinched spout. Example: OO stray 36. Discussion: Pirling/Siepen (2006, 202) mentions one example from a IId-IIIa grave in Gellep. Date: IId-IIIa. 143 Niederbieber 98 or Gose 512: 1 example See Remainder stray 19 in Chapter 4, Catalogue of the stray inds. 144 Gellep 115: 14 examples Coarse jug with conical neck and pinched spout. Examples: B 6.2, B 86.5, B 728.1, B 815.1, B stray 57, B stray 208, B stray 217, B stray 266 (small related shape), OO 78.2, OO 161.3, OO 356.3, OO stray 24, OO stray 33-4. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 91) dates an example to IVab because of a coin of AD 309 and a Gellep 57, and two to IVcd on the basis of a Gellep 106 with ‘sickle-shaped proile’ (see however discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131) and a small bowl Gellep 28. Pirling (1974, 62-63) dates three out of seventeen new examples with coins of AD 303, 305 and 310, and the other ones to IVAB on the basis of unspeciied associations. Pirling (1979, 45-46) dates eight new examples to IVa-Vab: four to IVab, two to IVB, one ‘late’ because of a west-east oriented grave, and one to Vab because of a buckle with ixed plate and animals’ heads. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 203) dates the type to IVa-Va and mentions the variation in size, 18.5-33.5 cm, with a mode between 23 and 28 cm. In Nijmegen, the mode is 19-26 cm, with one outlier at 12 and one at 29 cm. In view of the thermal shock-proof coarse ware, this must be a water boiler. Date: IVa-Va. 145 Gose 516/517: 2 examples Coarse jug with lat horizontal lip. Examples: B stray 73, OO 194.1. Discussion: This jug corresponds to Niederbieber 96 and is dated by Gose (1950, 44, pl. 51) IId-IIIab if one looks at Gose 516, and IIIcd if at Gose 517. Jug Gellep 66, similar to Gose 516 and discussed immediately below, suggests a later date: IVAB. In view of the thermal shock-proof coarse ware, this must be a water boiler. Date: IId-IVB. 146 Gellep 66: 8 examples Coarse jug with marked neck and horizontal lip. Examples: B 59.6, B 395.2, B 730.1, B 820.1, B stray 2, OO 196.3, OO 203.2, OO 382.2. Discussion: This jug corresponds to Niederbieber 96 and with Gose 516. Gose (1950, 44, pl. 51) dates his 516 to IIIcd. Pirling (1966, 72-3) assigned this shape to a diferent ware: D2, red painted and dated it to IVab because of its association with a coin of Constantine, a hemispherical beaker Gellep 222 and a jug with painted bands. Pirling (1974, 50) dates Gellep 66 implicitly to IVcd on the basis of coins of AD 313 and 315, a Gellep 122 (see however the discussion of Gellep 122, type ig. 151) and a Gellep 106 (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131). Pirling (1979, 38) dates two examples to IVA (‘Constantinian age’) and one to IVB on the basis of a piece of glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 205) transposes Gellep 66 to fabric G, coarse ware, mentioning the same ive examples that were called ware D2 earlier (Pirling 1966, 72), and dates the type to IVAB. In view of the thermal shock-proof coarse ware, this must be a water boiler. Date: IVAB. 147 Nijmegen 147: 1 example Coarse double-handled jug with biconical body and horizontal lip. Example: OO 200.4. Discussion: No parallel is known to me but the irst-century Stuart 131. The other inds of grave 309 — OO 200 date the grave to IVab. Date: IVab. 148 Nijmegen 148: 1 example Small coarse footed bowl. Example: B stray 227. Discussion: This is a variant of terra nigra footed bowl Gellep 274. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 189) dates Gellep 274 to IVab, but it is argued above that it should be dated IVa-VId. The Nijmegen example is in coarse ware. Date: IVa-VId. 149 Gellep 120: 20 examples Coarse bowl with rim thickened on inside and with constricted foot. Examples: B 123.intr., B 150.4, B 177.4, B 177.5, B 216.4, B 451.2, B stray 98, B stray 293, OO 144.6, OO 170.3, OO 176.9, OO 250.2, OO 413.2, OO 483.4, OO stray 26, OO stray 232-235, OO stray 311. Discussion: Gellep 120-122, which always have a groove under the rim, are diicult to distinguish (by the width of the base). They all evolve from Niederbieber 104. Pirling (1966, 92) dates graves in which Gellep 120 occurs to IVa and IVB. Pirling (1974, 64) discusses Gellep 120 and Gellep 121 together and dates two graves with new examples to IVab, and a third one to IVB because of the presence of a Gellep 103. Pirling (1979, 46) also discusses them together and dates them with two coins of AD 313 and 341. The later one is IVB, the two others IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 216) dates the bowl to II-IVB. Date: II-IVB. 150 Gellep 121: 5 examples Coarse bowl with lip thickened on inside and wide base. Examples: B 47.3, B stray 292, OO 136.2, OO 252.4, OO stray 25. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 92-93) remarks that Gellep 120 and Gellep 121 cannot be distinguished chronologically and dates Gellep 121 to IVab and IVB on the basis of associated inds. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 216) dates the bowl to IVAB. Date: IVAB. 151 Gellep 122: 37 examples Coarse bowl with lip thickened on inside. Examples: B 5.3, B 139.1, B 176.5, B 189.5, B 189.6, B 220.1, B 248.3, B 334.2, B 344.2, B 456.3, B 715.3, B 730.3, B 764.7, B 779.3, B 803.1, B 834.3, B stray 18-20, B stray 215, OO 20.3, OO 42.3, OO 71.3, OO 78.3, OO 168.7, OO 176.10, OO 197.2, OO 243.3, OO 249.2, OO 361.3, OO 382.3, OO 482.2, OO stray 9, OO stray 58, OO stray 236, OO stray 305, OO stray 315. Discussion: Gellep 122, like Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, is a source of too late dates in Pirling’s studies. Pirling (1966, 93) cites Unverzagt (1916, 34), who remarks in the discussion of Alzei 28 (the not very similar descendant of Gellep 122) that the everted rim is a characteristic that begins c. AD 350. (It must be remarked here that Gellep 122 does not have an everted rim.) At the time, Pirling only had two examples of Gellep 122, one of which she dates too late, in IVc, on the basis of association with a Gellep 72 (of IVab date) and a Gellep 106 ‘of sickle-shaped proile’ (see however the discussions of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131); she dates the other (in grave 772) implicitly to IVcd because of a Gellep 109, a glass botle Gellep 199 and an axe. Pirling (1974, 64-65) again cites Unverzagt but also Von Petrikovits and Fellmann, and discusses three examples that make her think of IVcd because of associations with Gellep 106 ‘with sickle-shaped proile’ (see however the discussions of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131), but which are also associated each with a Gellep 72, of IVab date. Her conclusion then is, that the example of bowls of type Gellep 122 in Gellep does not clearly airm a IVcd date. Pirling (1979, 46-47) must again admit that association with jug Gellep 81 and Gellep 83 points to a IVab date. So most examples are clearly dated to IVab, and the association with a Gellep 122 should not be used to argue a IVcd or later date (e.g. Pirling 310 — 1979, 48, when discussing a Gellep 128). Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 217) dates most Gellep examples (without discussion) to IVcd, but says that they also igure in IVab graves. Date: IVab. from other sites as late as Va, there is no proof of such late example in Gellep. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 236-7) dates the dish to IV. Nijmegen has no grave later than IVAB containing a Gellep 126. Date: IVAB. 152 Niederbieber 103: 2 examples Coarse bowl with carinated wall and everted lip. Examples: B 319.2, OO stray 237. Discussion: The designation for these two bowls, ‘Niederbieber 103’, has been chosen for want of something beter: no real parallels are known to me. The lid-seating and the quarter-round moulding, common to Niederbieber 103 and 89, are absent here. The association of B 319.2 with a Künzl 1.4.1 justiies a IVab date. Date: IVab. 154 Nijmegen 154: 1 example Coarse dish with base-disk and in-turned lip. Example: B 451.3. Discussion: This is a baking-dish. There is no parallel for this shape known to me; it is a variant of Gellep 126. The other two pieces of potery in B 451, a Symonds 61 and a Gellep 120, are to be dated IVAB. So this new shape is to be dated to IVAB, like Gellep 126. Date: IVAB. 153 Gellep 126: 47 examples Coarse dish with in-turned lip. Examples: B 85.2, B 90.3, B 423.3, B 676.3, B 686.4, B 705.2, B 705.intr., B 725.2, B 728.2, B 728.3, B 734.1, B 743.2, B 760.3, B 763.1, B 764.8, B 809.2, B 810.3, B 827.2, B stray 111, B stray 115, B stray 205, B stray 207, B stray 220, B stray 294, OO 37.2, OO 56.2, OO 249.3, OO 316.4, OO 356.4, OO 361.2, OO 362.2, OO 383.3, OO 423.2, OO 472.2, OO stray 59a, OO stray 69, OO stray 240247, Remainder stray 1-3. Discussion: This is a baking-dish. Pirling (1966, 94) already mentions 28 examples and calls this dish one of the most frequent shapes of Gellep. She dates the shape throughout IV: one to IVab, ive to IVB because of association with glazed pottery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above), and one possibly IVcd because of a bowl Gellep 28. Some examples from elsewhere are dated IVd and Va. Pirling (1974, 65-66) names 46 new examples, four of which dated by coins of AD 307, 315, 317 and 324. Also in other Gellep graves there was no proof of dates later than IVab, but Pirling names two examples outside Gellep, dated by coins of AD 364 and 367. Pirling (1979, 47) again has three examples dated by coins of AD 307, 313 and 333. She adds: although this type is known 155 Gellep 513: 1 example Coarse dish with convex wall. Example: OO stray 59. Discussion: This is a baking-dish. It is one out of seventeen new types of dishes that Pirling (1989, type plate 15) depicts without discussing them. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 230) dates the type to IIaIIIB. So the Nijmegen example may be a stray ind from the irst-century cemetery O on the same plot as the fourth-century OO. Date: IIa-IIIB. 156 Gellep 128: 124 examples Coarse dish with lat base and oblique wall. Examples: B 47.2, B 54.3, B 54.4, B 67.4, B 86.3, B 86.4, B 150.3, B 165.3, B 166.1, B 176.6, B 182.7, B 183.4, B 183.5, B 183.6, B 184.2, B 184.3, B 191.3, B 196.4, B 198.1, B 206.3, B 212.3, B 216.5, B 218.6, B 218.7, B 241.1, B 292.3, B 392.2, B 395.3, B 410.3, B 427.3, B 608.2, B 701.3, B 723.4, B 723.5, B 724.2, B 726.1, B 811.1, B 812.4, B 820.3, B 834.4, B 834.5, B 834.6, B stray 23, B stray 33, B stray 60, B stray 67, B stray 75, B stray 106-110, B stray 112-114, B stray 116-117, B stray 173, B stray 185, B stray 219, B stray 247, OO 25.3, OO 26.3, OO 26.4, OO 26.5, OO 48.1, OO 48.2, OO 59.3, OO 87.1, OO 96.1, OO 101.5, OO 101.6, OO 101.7, OO 102.2, OO 103.2, OO 108.3, OO 109.3, OO 112.1, OO 133.4, OO 144.7, OO 144.8, OO 152.3, OO 161.4, OO 161.5, 311 — OO 164.2, OO 164.3, OO 168.8, OO 168.9, OO 170.4, OO 176.11, OO 186.5, OO 186.6, OO 186.7, OO 200.6, OO 200.7, OO 207.3, OO 232.3, OO 240.3, OO 250.3, OO 250.4, OO 271.3, OO 290.3, OO 290.4, OO 349.2, OO 351.3, OO 354.5, OO 354.6, OO 382.4, OO 479.2, OO stray 10-12, OO stray 248-254, OO stray 300-302. Discussion: These are baking-dishes (Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 235): many have burning-marks. Pirling (1966, 95-96) distinguishes two sizes (Gellep 127, large, and Gellep 128, small) and six variants ater the shape of the wall because she hopes for a chronological distinction, but with hardly any result. Pirling (1974, 66-67) gives up the distinction between the variants for want of chronological results. Carelessness on the part of the poter with this plainest and cheapest shape led to the variation in shape. She gives several coin-dates: AD 299, 303, 305, 313, 316, 317, 323, 330, 333, and adds that in any case they were not used in IVcd. Pirling (1979, 47-48) repeats this, but strangely enough she wants to date one example to IVcd because of association with a Gellep 122 (see however the discussion of Gellep 122, type ig. 151). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 234-6) gives up the diference in size and drops type Gellep 127; the dishes are dated to IIIcd-IVAB: some are associated with Gellep glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Date: IVAB. 157 Gellep 497: 1 example Coarse dish with almost vertical wall and horizontal lip. Example: B 207.5. Discussion: This is a baking-dish. It is one of seventeen new types of dishes that Pirling (1989, type plate 15) depicts without discussing them. The overlap in time of the other potery in B 207 is IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 229) dates the dish to IIcd-IIIa. Date: IVab. Coarse dish, no data: 2 examples Examples: B 169.2, B 182.8. 158 Gellep 666: 4 examples Coarse money box with convex wall sinking inwards where there is small horizontal plane with a coin slot. Examples: B 372.4, B stray 3, OO stray 255-256. Discussion: The nature of the money box implies that it will be damaged in the end, so it is not certain that Gellep 123 (Pirling 1966, 93, type plate 10) was indeed a money box. The only possible money box from Nijmegen excavations (as opposed to stray inds), B 372.4, contained no coins. One end of the coin slot of B stray 3 is preserved: it certainly was a money box. Why an empty money box should be placed in a grave is uncertain. As a children’s atribute? Boldeti (1720, 496), reproduced in Willemsen (2003, 79, ig. 52) seems to imply so by showing two money boxes amidst children’s atributes from Roman catacombs. Grave B 372 was incomplete, so we do not know whether it was a child’s grave; the other three pieces of potery in it (a beaker Symonds 61, a large terra sigillata plate Gellep 41, and a small bowl ± Gellep 29) suggest it was the grave of an adult, dated IVAB. So, though Kellner (in Wamser 2000, 118-9 ig. 92) calls the Roman money-box a timeless shape, we can easily date the only Nijmegen grave it was found in. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 213) inds it hard to date the two money-boxes in Gellep. Fiedler/Höpken (2007, 97) reports the ind of a series of opened money boxes in a ritual deposit in Apulum (Rumania) and suggests the function of an ofertory-box. This causes Höpken (2008) to suggest that an opened money box in a grave means that money was collected by friends and relations of the deceased in order to pay for the funeral. For money boxes, see also Graeven 1901. Date: IVAB. Potery, no data or no type: 14 examples Examples: B 177.6 (bowl), B 182.4, B 182.5, B 227.4, B 819.2 (bowl), B 834.8 (‘plate’), OO 43.1, OO 87.2, OO 134.2, OO 134.3, OO 153.4, OO 188.3, OO 200.2, OO 332.1 (beaker). 312 — Handmade potery ROMAN GLASS 159- Diferent shapes: 6 examples 164 Examples: B 751.3, B 795.1, B stray 260?, OO 340.2, OO 340.3, OO 426.2. Discussion: Handmade potery, six pieces, was excavated in four graves. Grave B 795 had beaker B 795.1 as the only grave good; the other unique trait of the grave was a group of imbrices partially covering it underground. The beaker cannot therefore have been given because of budding ethnic sentiments: otherwise, the exceptional covering with Roman building material would not have been chosen. Strikingly, the other graves containing handmade potery also contained datable wheelmade potery; in two of them personal ornaments allow us to tell sex and age of the deceased. The small biconical jar B 751.3 was found in a small coin with two beakers Künzl 1.4.1 and an iron bracelet with beads: a girl, buried between AD 300/310 and 355. The small urn OO 426.2 was associated with a beaker Symonds 61 and a crossbow ibula type Prötel 3/4C (Van Buchem V, Keller 4B): a man, buried between AD 330 and 355. Two things are immediately clear from this: the handmade potery was not given for want of beter, but for an apparently positive reason; that reason, whatever its nature, could be valid for a girl and for a man. Moreover, the two graves were made in fully Roman context. The small double-handled jar OO 340.3 and jug OO 340.2 were associated with a terra sigillata bowl Gellep 34: a person of unknown sex, buried between AD 300 and 425 (the life span of Gellep 34 in Nijmegen). In the ith century, home industry may have led to the two pieces of handmade potery. Date: IVa-Va. The glass (not only the notoriously vulnerable colourless glass, which was decoloured with manganese) has frequently disintegrated completely in the acid environment of the Nijmegen sand. In this case, the shape could only be saved if it had been already stabilized in situ, e.g. by spraying it with a solution of joiner’s glue or a synthetic that hardens on contact with air. This was frequently not done in the 1950’s and even later, and as a result the glass has fallen apart into crumbs with a diameter of 0.2 cm. Nevertheless, the shape could sometimes be noted down during excavation. Even so, enough larger fragments and even complete proiles if not shapes have survived in order to give an overview of the shapes present. The same order of forms as in Roman potery, taken over from Pirling, is used here: pots, beakers, botles, one-handled jugs, double-handled jugs, small bowls, bowls, dishes, plates. Isings (1957) and studies of Roman glass in the museums of Bonn (Follmann-Schulz 1988), Neuss (Van Lith 1994), Trier (Goethert-Polaschek 1977), Mainz (Harter 1999) and Augst/ Kaiseraugst (Rüti 1991) are also taken into account. 165 Gellep 802 (= Isings 67a): 1 example Globular jar with latened rim folded outward, downward and inward. Example: OO stray 13. Discussion: This is a storage jar, oten used secondarily as an urn (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 302: Gellep 802). The examples Isings (1957, 86-7) mentions are dated IB-III. In Trier, it is dated from Nero (AD 54-68) to Hadrian (AD 117-138: Goethert-Polaschek 1977, 240, Form 147a, 352). In Mainz, it is dated from Augustus (27 BC – AD 14) to Claudius (AD 41-54) and its association with a coin of Valentinian II (AD 378-383) is doubted (Harter 1999, 80, Form C1a, 210). The only Nijmegen example comes from the Reinaldstraat and so possibly from O (irst-century cemetery O, E, S, CC) or OO (fourth-century cemetery Nijmegen-East). 313 — Date: IB-III. 166 Gellep 700 (= Isings 68): 1 example Globular ointment jar with latened rim. Example: B stray 248. Discussion: Isings (1957, 88-89) counts this form amidst the irst-century shapes, but also mentions it in a III-IV grave under the Cologne church of St. Severin. Pirling (1997, type plate 15: Gellep 700) depicts this shape without discussing it. Van Lith (1994, 310) dates these unguentaria from Claudian-Neronian age until IId. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 275) calls it a long-lived form and dates it to Ic-IV. Date: Ic-IV. Gellep 178-180 (= Isings 96, Trier 49a): glass hemispherical beakers in three variants of contemporaneous date (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 240). 167 Gellep 178: 12 examples Glass hemispherical beaker of wide shape. Examples: B 172.1, B 697.3, B 701.4, B 734.2, B 742.4, B 763.2, B 805.1, OO 37.3, OO 400.2, OO 413.3, OO 484.3, OO stray 260. 168 Gellep 179: possibly 1 example Glass hemispherical beaker of slender shape. Example: B 143.3? 169 Gellep 180: 8 examples Glass hemispherical beaker with slightly everted rim. Examples: B 128.1, B 135.3, B 137.2, B 196.5, B 218.8, B 663.2, OO 433.3, OO stray 261. Discussion: Isings (1957, 113-114) classiies all hemispherical bowls or beakers (‘We know nothing of their use, however’) of her type 96 with the third-century shapes, but she dates most examples she mentions to IVcd, and sometimes as late as Vb. Pirling (1966, 96-97) does not refer to Isings 96 and subdivides it with the words ‘of wide shape’, ‘of slender shape’, and’ with slightly everted rim’. The glass-blower cracked them of and ground the rims smooth. The colour varies from light green to all but colourless. Pirling (1966, 96) dates some of the Gellep 178 beakers to IVab or IVcd on the basis of association of potery; the rest plainly to IV. She divides Gellep 179 and Gellep 180 in a similar way. Pirling (1974, 67-68) discusses the three shapes together as there is no chronological diference and gives coin dates of AD 346, 313, 305, 324 and 307. Conclusion: the beakers occur in Gellep at least up to the middle of IV, but until later elsewhere. With later examples, the wall is thicker and the glass contains more bubbles and is darker in colour. Pirling (1979, 48) has three coin dates AD 333, 341, 341: IVB. One is dated to IVd because of association with a buckle. FollmannSchulz (1988, 5) classiies, without chronological consequences, these beakers into four variants according to the shapes of their rims. The glassblowers cracked of three of these and then ground the rims smooth. The rim of the fourth variant was bent outwards and the edge heated in the furnace to form a ire-rounded rim. This last variant is generally considered late, but starts IIIB. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 240-1) treats the three shapes together, observes that botle Gellep 197 is oten combined with such a glass, decides that it must be a cup not a bowl, and that wine was the content. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 50-9, 350) dates these beakers to IV. Cool (2003, 248; Cool/Baxter 2005) suggests that these beakers may have been ‘beer glasses for the lads’ or ‘cups for gentlemen’. For that reason, the Nijmegen glasses have been screened on the association with known gender attributes. Almost the opposite seems to be the case in Nijmegen: apart from one association with a certain and one with a probable male atribute (axe B 143.8, bucket B 704.9), there are seven associations with female atributes: with bracelet B 172.3, beads B 196.6, beads B 218.10, pin B 663.3, bracelet OO 37.4, comb OO 400.4, and beads OO 413.4. Moreover, glass beaker B 697.3 was found in a child’s grave, which contained a coin of 120x30 cm and spouted jug B 697.5. So in Nijmegen these beakers could be used by both genders and all ages, but most of them are found with women. Date: IIIc-Vb. 314 — 170 Gellep 181: 1 example Hemispherical glass beaker with blobs in the same colour of the wall. Example: B 497.intr. Discussion: Isings (1957, 116 and 131-2) dates hemispherical beakers of her form 96 with blobs only to IV. Pirling (1966, 97) has one example from a grave to be dated IVab, as appears from association with Gellep 80, Gellep 222 and Gellep 223. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 242) repeats this date. Barkóczy (1972) dates hemispherical beakers with blobs from Pannonia to c.AD 380-440. Date: IVab-Vb. B 680 171 Gellep 182 (= Isings 96a): 3 examples Hemispherical glass beaker with blue blobs. Examples: B 680.2, B 704.4, B 766.3. Discussion: Isings (1957, 116 and 131-2) dates hemispherical beakers of her form 96 with blobs only to IV. Pirling (1966, 97-98) has one example she dates to IVB because of association with a Gellep 72 and a Gellep 106 ‘with slightly sickle-shaped proile (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 242) dates it to IVab. Barkóczy (1972) dates hemispherical beakers with blobs from Pannonia to c.AD 380-440. Harden et al. (1988, 101-102) follows Fremersdorf (1962, 7 and 13-14), dates these beakers III-Va and names two processes for making the blobs: dripping them on and reheating, or dripping them on at such a high temperature of the beaker that the blob immediately fuses with the wall. Date: III-Va. 172 Gellep 189 (= Isings 96b): 8 examples Hemispherical glass beaker with ive or six pinches. Examples: B 381.3, B 481.3, OO 355.1, OO stray 262-266. Discussion: These beakers have a ire-rounded rim. Isings (1957, 116 and 132) dates them only to IV and names several Nijmegen examples. Pirling (1966, 100) dates an example to IVcd because of association with a Gellep 106 ‘with sickle-shaped proile’ (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131); one example to IVab because of association with a Gellep 16, and two to IVB. She concludes that these beakers lasted throughout IV and says that the shape lasts on in the early Frankish Gellep 238 (see immediately below). Pirling (1974, 71) dates an example to IVab because of association with a Gellep 29 and a Gellep 72, one to IVB because of association with a glazed piece of pottery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above), and two to IVAB. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 248) implicitly dates the beaker to IIIC-IVab. Date: IIIC-IVab. 173 Gellep 238 (= Isings 96b): 2 examples Small glass bowl with glass thread decoration and pinches. Examples: B 16.4, OO stray 321 Discussion: Pirling (1966, 153-154) has one example, which she dates to Frankish phase I (Vab, see Pirling 1966, 22) because of association with bracelets of that period. Werner (1958, 387 ig. 13) has a distribution map and supposes the origin in a Belgian workshop on the river Maas/ Meuse. The only regularly excavated example in Nijmegen comes from a grave that contains two pots dated IVcd; dating this bowl to IVcd also solves the problem that otherwise there would be a gap of half a century between related types Gellep 189 (IIIC-IVab) and Gellep 238 (Vab). So 315 — the bowl is to be dated IVcd-Vab. Pirling/Siepen (2006) does not discuss the type, as it had been deined as Frankish and the book is about Roman inds. Date: IVcd-Vab. 174 Gellep 190/236: 1 example Glass cauldron-shaped beaker. Example: B 465.5. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 100 and 153) deines this shape twice, once for Roman and once for Frankish glass. The one in a Roman child’s grave is dated to IVd because of association with a barbaric imitation of a coin of Gratian (375-383). The one in a Frankish grave is dated to Vab because of association with a dish ibula and a Gellep 149, while bow ibulae found with it are to be dated at the transition from Frankish phases I to II, i.e. c.AD 450 (Pirling 1966, 22). Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 248) dates the type IVd-Vcd. Date: IVd-Vcd. 175 Nijmegen 175: 1 example Low and wide cylindrical beaker of colourless glass without foot, base bulging slightly up; two horizontal grooves. Example: OO stray 323. Discussion: No parallels known; being a stray ind, it cannot be dated. Date: ? 176 Gellep 296 (= Isings 131, Trier 62a): 1 example Tulip-shaped glass beaker with foot-ring. Example: OO 250.8. Discussion: The shape of this beaker is reminiscent of Isings form 131, ovoid jar (Isings 1957, 160), dated IIId-IV. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 84-6, 350) dates this beaker to IV. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 253-4) dates the beaker to IVab because of associated potery. Date: IV. 177 Gellep 183 (= Isings 106b2, Trier 52b): 1 example Glass blob beaker of slender shape. Example: OO 200.8. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 98) mentions a single example from a rich lady’s grave, dated IVab because of association with a Gellep 184 and a Gellep 75. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 68-9, 350) dates this beaker to IV. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 242-3) has three examples from rich graves, dated IVAB. Date: IVAB. 178 Gellep 184 (= Trier 52b): 1 example Glass beaker of slender shape. Example: B 206.4. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 98) dates an example c. AD 300 on account of the latest coin, dated AD 298, of a series of nineteen coins. She dates two other graves in which it occurs to IVab. Pirling (1974, 68) also arrives at IVab for three examples. Pirling (1979, 48-49) dates an example also to IVab because of association with a Gellep 72 and a Gellep 105 ‘of heart-shaped proile’ (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 244) mentions three women’s graves in Gellep in which the type igures and dates the type IIIdIVab. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 68-9, 350) dates this beaker to IV. Date: IIId-IVab. 179 Gellep 185 (= Isings 106b1-c2, Trier 53a): 7 examples Slender conical glass beaker. Examples: B 125.1, B 143.2, B 512.2, B 674.5, B 726.2, OO 400.3, OO stray 60. Discussion: This shape corresponds to Isings 106b1, dated by Isings (1957, 127) to IVcd. Pirling (1966, 98-99) dates an example to IVab because of association with a Gellep 81 and a Gellep 84a; and one to IVc because of association with a chiselled buckle. She draws atention to many beakers of this shape at Mayen, always with glass coils, all dated IVC. Pirling (1974, 68-69) mentions a grave with a coin of AD 341, but mentions examples elsewhere to be dated ater AD 351 and between AD 355 and 360, and so concludes to IVc(d). Pirling (1979, 49) dates one to IVB because of association with a piece of glazed potery (see however the discussion of 316 — the date of glazed potery above), and one to IVcd because of association with a heart-shaped strap end. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 255) dates the type to IVBC. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 69-73, 350) dates the beaker to IV. Isings and Van Lith (1992, 22) give a colour photograph and a technical description of B 726.2: ‘It is made of bluish green tinted glass and decorated with yellow glass thread. This was applied in several stages. First, a glass thread was coiled twice around the lower wall. Ater that, pieces of glass thread were heated locally in the lame of an oil lamp, bent into arcs and applied in pairs one opposite to the other melted onto the glass wall. Ater that, a glass thread was applied in several coils above them and drawn into arcs with a small metal hook. In order to get a good base, the botom was dented in. Finally, the beaker was cracked of at the desired place and the rim carefully ground smooth.’ (transl. D. St.) A similar example was found at Oudenburg (Böhme 1974, 295, Pl. 95, 13). Date: IVBC. 180 Gellep 187: possibly 1 example Conical beaker with wide base and rim bending outwards. Example: OO 209.1? Discussion: The fragments OO 209.1, the only artefact in the grave, were tentatively identiied as Gellep 187. Pirling (1966, 99) dates the grave in which the only Gellep example was found to IVab, but remarks that the beaker seems to be much earlier: a piece from Cologne was dated to II. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 257) dates the same grave to IIId-IVa and cites parallels from II-IIIC. Date: II-IVa. 181 Gellep 193? (= Trier 58a): 2 examples Glass slender bell-shaped beaker with foot-ring. Examples: B 197.5, OO 101.8. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 101) dates an example to IVB because of association with two cookingpots Gellep 106 ‘with faint sickle-shaped proile’ (see however the discussion of Gellep 105 and Gellep 106, type igs. 130-131) and says that the shape lasts into Frankish times. Pirling (1974, 71) dates a new example to IVB because of association with a piece of glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 252) dates the beaker to IVab. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 7680, 350) dates the beaker to IV. Date: IVab. 182 Nijmegen 182: 1 example Tulip-shaped beaker with high foot-ring and applied serpentine glass thread. Example: B 749.1 Discussion: The serpentine decoration is applied in the same way as on Gellep 194 (below): thick glass threads laid in waves whose summits touch. The shape corresponds to the fourth-century Isings 109b. The drawing of Isings (1957, 136) shows how the high and wide foot-ring was made: by pushing the end of the glass balloon back inwards, so that a double wall was made with round (hollow or solid) foot-ring. As the beaker is the only grave good in B 749, we may date it like Gellep 194 to IVab. Date: IVab. 183 Gellep 194: 2 examples Glass beaker with foot-ring and applied serpentine glass thread. Examples: B 197.4, B stray 320 Discussion: Pirling (1966, 101-102) dates the only Gellep example to IVab, but draws atention to third-century Cologne examples. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 259) repeats this, but inds the date for the Cologne examples too early. We do not know the measurements of B 197.4; those of B stray 320 are enormous, c.40 cm. Date: IVab. 184 Gellep 294 (= Isings 35): 1 example Glass beaker with vertical dents and foot-ring. Example: OO 133.5. Discussion: Pirling (1974, 72) has one very thinwalled example, which she dates to IVab or IVB. Fourth-century examples occur at Andernach 317 — and Vermand (Isings 1957, 49-50). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 250) dates the beaker to IVAB. Date: IVAB. 185 Gellep 195: 7 examples High glass beaker with lightly constricted foot and incised horizontal lines. Examples: B 7.1, B 150.7, B 719.1, OO 168.10, OO 250.5, OO 290.5, OO 423.3. Discussion: As with the Gellep examples, the glass blower has cracked the beaker of and ground its edge smooth. Pirling (1966, 102) dates two examples to IVB because of association with glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling (1974, 72-73) gives the same date to two examples on the same basis, and IVab or VB to the other ive, because of association with potery. A last example is dated to IVAB by Pirling (1979, 50-51). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 259) dates the beaker to IVAB. The shape, not treated by Isings (1957), corresponds to Goethert-Polaschek 59 (1977, 82-3, 350), dated by her to IVC, and to FollmannSchulz (1988, 83, Tafel 36, 147) 285-6, dated to IV. Date: IVAB. 186 Nijmegen 186: 1 example Glass serpentine beaker. Example: B 180.1. Discussion: The sherds of the only Nijmegen example suggest a beaker. Glass threads applied in the shape of an 8 and fused on the widest parts of the 8. The coin date of grave B 180 is AD 316318. Date: IVa. 187 Gellep 521 (= Isings 114b, Trier 96): 2 examples Glass beaker on blown foot, with globular body, a rib at the transition shoulder-neck, and cylindrical neck. Example: B 687.3, B stray 321 Discussion: B 687.3 has dents in the body and thus imitates Symonds 62. Pirling (1989, type plate 16) depicts Gellep 521 without discussing it. Isings (1957, 142-3) calls it an imitation of the ine dark coloured beakers from Trier and dates the Nijmegen example IVcd. Because of associa- tion with other grave goods (a Symonds 61 and a Gellep 274), the date must be earlier. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 254, 475) dates the grave with the only Gellep example to ‘not before the third decade’ and to IVB because of a glazed piece of pottery. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 153-4351) dates the beaker to IV. Date: IVab. 188 Gellep 197 (= Isings 104b, Trier 101b): 2 examples Globular glass botle without foot-ring, incised horizontal lines and splayed neck. Examples: B 818.2, OO stray 267. Discussion: An example with a glass beaker upside down on its mouth was found in Gellep according to Pirling (1966, 102-103), who suggests it is a table carafe to be dated to IVab. She does so after Isings (1957, 124), where it appears that most of these botles of Isings 104b, a type that started in III, are to be dated in those years. Pirling (1975, 74) dates ive new examples with coins of AD 313 and 341 to IVab up to IVB, and because of association with a piece of glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). She remarks that these botles occur almost always together with hemispherical glass beakers and so formed a table set; she suggests wine as the content. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 241, 262) repeats this. See further at Gellep 298, immediately below. Pirling (1979, 51) conirms the combination with a glass beaker, and dates the shape ‘at least’ to IVAB because of association with a piece of glazed potery and conical glass beakers from IVc (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 261) dates two botles in cremation graves to III, and the vast majority to IVAB. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 163-179, 351) dates the botle to IV. Date: IVAB. Gellep 197/298: 1 example Example: OO stray 268. Discussion: The loose splayed neck may have belonged to an example with or without foot-ring. Date: IV. 318 — 189 Gellep 298 (= Isings 104a, Trier 101a): 2 examples Globular glass botle with foot-ring, incised horizontal lines and splayed neck. Examples: B 726.3, OO stray 269. Discussion: Isings (1957, 123) sees this botle as a possible imitation of the ine dark coloured bottles. As it has been argued above, under Künzl 14.1.1, that this shape is a water botle, I suggest this function also for glass botles Gellep 197 and Gellep 298. Pirling (1974, 74-75) dates this botle with foot-ring to IVcd, so as a later variant of Gellep 197. She does so because of association with a coin of AD 346 and of parallels outside Gellep. Pirling (1979, 51-52) dates a new example again to IVcd because of association with a Gellep 186 (a type not found in Nijmegen), although she is troubled by the presence of jug Gellep 263, which belongs to IVab. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 262) calls the botle later than Gellep 297 and dates it to IVC. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 156-163, 351) dates the botle to IV. Date: IVC. 190 Gellep 198 (= Isings 101, Trier 79a): 19 examples Glass botle with globular body, cylindrical neck and round lip. Examples: B 512.3, B 592.1, B 663.1, B 706.4, B 747.2, B 812.1, B stray 35-36, B stray 127, B stray 193, B stray 249, OO stray 270-277. Discussion: This shape begins in III but is mainly a fourth-century shape (Isings 1957, 119-20). Pirling (1966, 103) dates an example to IIId, although it is associated with a Gellep 105. She notes that early examples are blue and late ones green; she dates one of these to IVcd because of association with a Gellep 122 (see however the discussion of Gellep 122, type ig. 151). Pirling (1974, 75) has three examples with coin dates: AD 323, 315 and 299; the later one is nevertheless dated IVB because of association with a piece of glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). She dates a fourth example to IVcd because of association with a conical glass beaker Gellep 292 and a gilt silver mounting. Throughout IV, she concludes. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 264) dates the botle to III-Va. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 125131, 351) dates it to IV. Harter (1999, 286-8, Form G27a, 342) dates the botle to IIId-IVab. Follmann-Schulz (1988, 30-2, nos 51-61, 142-147, Tafel 5) mentions some in Ivab and some in IV. Date: III-Va. 191 Gellep 199: 4 or 5 examples Glass botle with oval body, sometimes a ‘kick’, cylindrical neck and a round lip. Examples: B 218.9, OO 9.7?, OO 290.6, OO 473.2, OO 473.3. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 103) would like to date an example to IIId, but she had to change that to IVa because of association with a Gellep 105. Moreover, she thinks that the shape lasts on into IVcd because of association with a Gellep 122 (see however the discussion of Gellep 122, type ig. 151). Pirling (1974, 75-76) dates two examples to IVab and one to IVcd without stating why. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 265) calls the kick an early characteristic and dates the botle to IVa-d. Follmann-Schulz (1988, 28-29, nos 44-47, Tafel 4) dates them to IIIa-IV. Kicks are sometimes explained as a means to trap deposit and preventing it from geting out when the wine is poured. Botles with kicks are not mentioned in Isings (1957); they do not igure in Trier (Goethert-Polaschek 1977) and Mainz (Harter 1999), but do igure in Nijmegen, Gellep and Bonn: a regional characteristic because of more deposit? Date: IVa-d. 192 Nijmegen 192: 1 example Botle with decoration of four pinches. Example: B stray 210. Discussion: This botle with four pinches like on Gellep 189 and Gellep 238 can only be dated like these to IIIC-IVab and IVcd-Vab, respectively. As the glass thread is absent on Gellep 189 and on Nijmegen 192, I suggest to date it like Gellep 189. Date: IIIC-IVab. 193 Gellep 698: 1 example Glass botle with oval body and a deep kick. 319 — Example: B stray 252. Discussion: Pirling (1997, type plate 15) depicts Gellep 689 without discussing it. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 267) dates the botle to IIIB. Date: IIIB. because of association with IVab potery. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 270) repeats this. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 115-7, 350) has quite a diferent date for this free-blown shape: Ic-IIb. Date: IVab. 194 Gellep 203?: 3 examples Small glass botle with bag-shaped body and wide neck. Examples: OO 170.5, OO stray 279-280. Discussion: OO 170.5 cannot be said to be widenecked. Pirling (1966, 104) dates the only Gellep example to IVB because of association with a piece of glazed potery (see however the discussion of the date of glazed potery above). Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 268) dates the botle to III-IVB. Date: III-IVB. 198 Isings 102a (= Trier 109a): 2 examples Glass cylindrical botle with folded rim. Example: B stray 251, OO stray 282. Discussion: Isings (1957, 120-121) dates this shape IId-IV. The fourth-century example from cemetery Nijmegen-East she mentions (180 OO) is the same as OO stray 282. As the shoulder of this botle is wider than its base, Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 185-7, 351) rightly remarks that its lower part was blown into an open mould; she dates it to IVab. Date: IId-IVab. 195 Gellep 523 (= Isings 83): 2 examples Glass balsamarium, body hardly wider than neck. Examples: B 701.6, OO 252.6. Discussion: Pirling (1989, type plate 16) illustrates Gellep 523. It is Isings’ (1957, 99-100) form 83, a second-century shape, which continues up to the fourth century. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 267) dates the botle to IVab. Date: IVab. 196 Gellep 219 (= Isings 105): 1 example Glass toilet botle. Example: OO 9.4. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 109) has four Gellep examples, all to be dated IVab, one of which with a coin of AD 313. She cites Isings (1957, 126), whose form 105 it is (her irst fourth-century shape) and who dates it IIId-IV. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 276) dates the botle to IVab. Date: IVab. 197 Gellep 202 (= Trier 71): 2 examples Glass botle with lat base, hemispherical body and cylindrical neck. Examples: B stray 250, OO stray 278. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 104) has one example of thick olive-green glass, which she dates to IVab 199 Isings 78a: 2 examples Mould-blown colourless lask on foot and with conical neck: double female human head with curved and pointed noses, ring-locks, earrings and one mouth slightly opened, the other closed. Examples: OO stray 285, OO stray 322. Discussion: It appears from the description in Isings (1957, 93-94) that she classiies double human heads in her form 78a; the caption gives by mistake 78b. She dates the shape Ic-IVd/Va. There are two identical and exceptionally large examples from Nijmegen-East: OO stray 285 lacks base and neck of the botle and still measures 15.6 cm in height. Several photographs of it have been published: Mededelingenblad Allard Pierson Museum Amsterdam 80 (2001) 12, ig. 36: side view, on which earring, not drawn here, visible; calendar Archeologie in Nederland 2001, May: one of the faces en trois quarts.). OO stray 322 is in many fragments including the foot, some large enough to see that they come from the same mould as OO stray 285. Prof. C. Isings (pers.com. 17-10-2006) writes: ‘When I would make a new typology now, I would no longer treat the early and late examples of shape 78 together. They are diferent and so far I know of no transitional examples.’ 320 — There are two identical examples in the RömischGermanisches Museum in Cologne. One (no. 56,408) was found on the Waidmarkt in Cologne (La Baume 1983, 225, ig. 206); the other (Glas 946) is of unknown provenance. A third complete example, h 24.8, d 7.6, is in Worms Museum. It is called a male beardless head in Geiberger (2005, 158, ig. 41), although the earring is clearly visible. Harter (1999, 299, ig. 1182ab) shows a fragmentary example in Mainz, possibly from the same mould as the Nijmegen examples, but does not pronounce on gender; the earring is visible. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 257-8, Taf. 80, nos. 1532-3) treats two similar botles from a diferent mould in Trier: no ears depicted; no statement on gender. Goethert (2007a, 390, ig. 6; and in: Grüßinger et al. 2007, I.18.56) shows a now completed example from Trier, the same as her 1532 in 1977; the forehead and lower part of the cylindrical neck, still missing in 1977, have been integrated; the top of the neck with proiled rim and handle, already mentioned as lost in 1977, have been restored in other material. She mentions the Rhineland and northern France as the distribution area and dates these botles, made in bipartite hinged moulds, to IVab. Nijmegen may now be added to the distribution area. Date: IVab. 200 Gellep 302 (= Isings 50): 2 examples Square glass botle. Examples: B 704.5, B stray 45. Discussion: The only example from excavation has disintegrated. The sketch in the plan of the grave does not indicate a lip; probably it is the low variant Isings 50a. Isings (1957, 63-66) dates the small square botle Ib-IV. B stray 45 is a high square botle, Isings 50b, dated Ic-IIIcd (Isings 1957, 68-69). The corresponding Gellep types are 302 (low) and 845 (high). Pirling/Siepen (2006, 287) dates Gellep 302 to Ib-IV and the one grave with a Gellep 845 to IIIcd-IV. Date: Ib-IV (low variant); Ic-IIId (high variant). 201 ± Gellep 708: 1 example Small glass conical jug. Example: OO stray 286. Discussion: Pirling (1997, type plate 16) depicts Gellep 708 without discussing it. The shape does not occur in Isings 1957. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 284) dates the botle to IIIab. Date: IIIab. 202 Isings 121a (= Trier 123c): 1 example Blue transparent glass jug with four dents in the globular body, narrow neck, wide mouth; handle and glass coil around neck opaque white. Example: OO 252.7. Discussion: Isings (1957, 152) dates three of these small jugs to IV, IVB and ‘possibly III-IV’. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 209, 352) dates the jug to IV. Date: IV. 203 Isings 88c (= Trier 117b): 2 examples Glass jug with handle at 90o to the spout and with glass coils in two places. Examples: B 701.8, B stray 164. Discussion: Isings (1957, 106) dates this shape IIcd-IV. Her fourth-century example is B 701.8. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 200, 352) dates the jug to II-III. Date: IIcd-IV. 204 Gellep 713 (= Isings 99, Trier 123b): 2 examples Glass jug with base-ring; spout on maximum diameter and handle at 90o to it. Examples: B 697.5, OO stray 287. Discussion: Pirling (1997, type plate 16) depicts Gellep 713 without discussing it. The shape corresponds to Isings 99, which Isings (1957, 118) dates II-IVd/Va. She remarks that the shape is usually called a feeding botle, but that it seems uncomfortable and even dangerous for that use. Van den Dries (2007, 79) remarks that the spout of such glass feeding botles is too sharp to put it into the mouth and suggests that they were especially made for the grave. The only grave it was found in is a child’s grave, as appeared from the length of the coin, 120 cm. Pirling/Siepen 321 — (2006, 282) dates the jug to II-IV. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 208-9, 352) dates the jug to IVab, exactly the period in which grave B 697 is dated. Date: II-Va. 205 Gellep 217 (= Isings 120b): 1 example Glass jug with emphasized shoulder. Example: B 697.4. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 108-109) has an example that she dates to IVab because of association with two jugs Gellep 84a, and remarks that examples elsewhere are to be dated to IVB and IVab. The shape corresponds to Isings 120b, which Isings (1957, 150-1) dates to III-Va. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 288) dates the jug to IV. Date: III-Va. 206 Gellep 218: 1 example Glass carafe with globular body. Example: B 471.1. Discussion: The Nijmegen example has a globular body, the Gellep carafe an oval one. Pirling (1966, 109) dates them to IVab. Pirling (1974, 78) dates a new example to IVab or IVB. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 289) dates the jug to IIId-IVB. Date: IIId-IVB. 207 Isings 122 (= Trier 128): 2 examples Glass pear-shaped or conical jug with funnelshaped mouth. Examples: B stray 126, B stray 165. Discussion: Isings (1957, 153) dates one example by a coin of Constantinus II (337-340), and two others to IVcd-Va. Date: IVb-Va. 208 Isings 124a (= Trier 117a): 1 example Beaked glass jug with spout opposite handle. Example: B 728.4. Discussion: Isings (1957, 154) refers to a single example from the Porte Blanche cemetery at Strasbourg, of IIId-IV date. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 199-200, 352) dates this jug to I-III. Isings’ date its grave B 728, with its three coarse dishes, much beter. Date: IIId-IV. 209 Gellep 301 (= Isings 51a): 1 example Low wide cylindrical glass botle with bandshaped handle. Example: B 176.7. Discussion: Isings (1957, 67-68) refers to examples dated Ib-IIcd, and one from a ind dated no more precisely than AD 85-III. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 286) dates the only Gellep example by a coin of AD 251 to IIIcd. However, our Isings 51a is associated with IVab and IVAB potery in grave B 176; B 176 is earlier than graves B 25 and B 26, both dated to IVAB, so it may safely be dated to IVa. Date: Ib-IVa. 210 Gellep 333 (=Isings 89, Trier 121): 7 examples Glass one-handled barrel jug. Examples: B 27.1, B stray 125, OO 250.6, OO 250.7, OO 252.5, OO 290.7, OO stray 288. Discussion: Pirling (1979, 52-53) has an example dated to IVB by a crossbow ibula Keller 4A and an amphora-shaped strap end. She cites Isings (1957, 106-107), who shows that her form 89 was produced Id-IVd/Va: an exceptionally long-lived shape. Isings (1970), however, distinguishes the earlier from the later examples, especially by the shape of the mouth. She writes about an early example from Nijmegen: ‘The neck is indented at the underside and its rim has been folded just a bit outwards, then obliquely up and inwards. This type of rim occurs in other jugs (..) and especially in the second half of the irst century and in the second’ (137-40; transl. D.St.). And about the late examples, she writes: ‘The loruit of the barrel jugs falls only in the third and fourth centuries. In that period, they were made in diferent sizes. Many of them carry a stamp of the manufacturer of the glass (or possibly the manufacturer of the contents). The name Frontinus is the most frequent. There are jugs with one handle, but examples with two handles occur in the fourth century. The jugs now have a wide lat mouth, the rim folded inwards (..; 142, transl. D.St.). Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 202-4, 352) dates one example to IIab and seven others to IV. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 285) dates the jug to III-IV. 322 — As for the contents, Isings (1970, 137) writes: ‘Although we (..) may surmise that part served for wine, we cannot prove it, because the contents survived nowhere’ (transl. D.St.). The hard black deposit in OO 252.5 does suggest wine, but it has not been analysed yet. Date: IV. 211 Gellep 213 (= Isings 128, Trier 142): 3 examples Glass double-handled barrel jug. Examples: B 143.1, B 680.3, B 824.1. Discussion: Example B 143.1 has the irm name FRON(tinus) on the underside of the base; the bases of the other two examples have not been preserved. Pirling (1966, 107) dates an example to IVB because of association with a coin of AD 337, and one to IVab. She cites Isings (1957, 158), who dates her corresponding form 128 throughout IV. Pirling (1974, 78) says that Isings dates the shape to IVB and IVcd, and dates two new examples to IVcd because of associated inds. Pirling (1979, 53) dates two examples to IVB or IVcd because of association with a pin and an indented glass bowl. See also discussion of Isings 89, above. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 234-5, 352) dates the jug to IVcd. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 292) dates it to IVBC. Date: IVBC. 212 Isings 61: 2 examples Glass aryballos with four compartments. Examples: B 172.2, OO stray 289. Discussion: Isings (1957, 78-81) dates these aryballoi, which were carried by a small chain to the bathhouse, to Ib-IVab, the latest example being B 172.2. The aryballos OO stray 289, which has dolphin handles, is discussed by Isings/Van Lith (1992, 21, ig. 23, let): “The large aryballos comes from the Late Roman cemetery near Museum Kam (near the Barbarossastraat). It is a peculiar example, not only because it is all but colourless, but also because it consists of four separately blown parts, which were then put together. The parts were probably meant to hold diferent perfumed oils. The four openings may have been closed with four small bronze stoppers. The botle has a foot, a trait mainly found with Late Roman examples. Aryballoi with two or more compartments, made of decoloured glass, were also found in Late Roman cemeteries of Cologne and they were possibly made there (Fremersdorf/PolonyiFremersdorf 1984, 107-8, nos. 238-240). Their date is probably third and maybe the beginning of the fourth century.” (Transl. D.St.) Date: Ib-IVab. 213 Gellep 212 (= Isings 129, Trier 144): 3 examples Glass botle with globular body, cylindrical neck, collar, and three or four handles. Examples: B 59.7, B 674.6, OO 58.2. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 107) dates two examples: one to IVab because of association with a coin of AD 313, the other to IVB because of association with a fragment of terra sigillata with a complicated roulete patern. She cites Isings (1957, 159), who writes of her form 129 that it is commonly called [by archaeologists] diota (Greek for double-handled or rather double-eared; the word, however, occurs only once in Latin literature, in Horace Carmen I,9,8, where it doubtlessly refers to a large amphora from the cellar) and dates it both to IVab and to IVcd. Pirling (1974, 77-78) has an example dated IVab or IVB because of association with a twisted bracelet, and a third one IVcd because of association with a conical glass beaker of type Gellep 185 = Isings 106b1-c2. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 236, 352) dates the jug to IV. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 291) dates it IVa-d. Date: IVa-d. 214 Gellep 538 (= Isings 42b): 1 example Small glass bowl with rim hanging over. Example: B stray 192. Discussion: Pirling (1989, type plate 18) depicts Gellep 538 without discussing it. The shape corresponds to Isings 42b, which Isings (1957, 58) dates to IId/IIIa-IVd. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 291) dates the jug to IVAB. Date: IVAB. 323 — 215 Nijmegen 215: 1 example Splaying glass beaker or bowl on hollow foot. Example: B stray 231. Discussion: No parallels are known to me. Date: ? corresponds to Isings 116a, which Isings (1957, 143-144) dates to IVcd-Va, and to Isings 116b (decorated), dated IIId-IVd. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 295) dates the bowl to IVB. Date: IVB. 216 Gellep 221 (= Isings 117, Trier 28): 2 examples Glass bowl with nine dents. Examples: B 14.2, OO stray 290. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 110) mentions two such bowls, both to be dated to Va because of association with a buckle with animals’ heads, a rosete-shaped belt pendant and a Gellep 192 in one grave; a francisca, a terra nigra footed bowl and a barbaric silver coin in the other. She refers to similarly shaped but colourless bowls from Cologne, where they are dated IVab. Pirling (1979, 53) has two new examples of thick, olivegreen glass, both dated to Va because of associations and of parallels with a grave containing a coin of AD 411. The shape corresponds to Isings 117, which Isings (1957, 147-8) dates to IV, some of them IVd, and one from a cemetery of IVd-Va date. Goethert-Polaschek (1977, 39, 349) dates this bowl to IVcd. Siegmund (1998 ig. 81) puts it into phase Niederrhein 1, AD 400-440. Pirling/ Siepen (2006, 298) dates the bowl to IVd-Vab. However, the association in grave B 14 with two buckles of type Sommer 1Cb1, dated to AD 310360, shows that the bowl already occurred in IVc. Date: IVc-440. 218 Gellep 541 (= Isings 97): 1 example Small glass plate with foot-ring and lip folded downward and inward. Example: B 150.6. Discussion: The Nijmegen example has been completely preserved but has been squashed into a lat disk; it was irst interpreted as a silver mirror by the excavator, and as a bronze mirror by the inventory book. Pirling (1989, type plate 18) depicts Gellep 540 and Gellep 541 without discussing them. The shape corresponds to Isings 97, which Isings (1957, 116-117) dates to IId/IIIa-IVb. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 301) dates a grave in which such a plate was found by a coin of AD 341 and mentions a grave in Brunssum of IIIcd date that contained similar small plates. Date: IIIcd-IVb. 217 Gellep 222 (= Isings 116a/b): 3 examples Almost hemispherical glass bowl. Examples: B 701.5, B 704.8, OO stray 14. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 110-111) discusses a bowl with depiction of Bacchus, engraved on the outside and to be viewed from above, i.e. through the glass, and cites Harden (1960, 45f), who ascribes all bowls of this shape with engravings to a Cologne workshop active AD 320-330 [with a margin of 30-40 years, Pirling/Siepen (2006, 296) adds]. Pirling dates a second example also to IVab. Pirling (1979, 54) dates a new example to IVb because of association with IVab potery and a crossbow ibula. The shape (undecorated) 219 Gellep 224 (= Isings 113): 1 example Glass drinking-horn with knob-like thickened end. Example: OO stray 314 Discussion: Pirling (1966, 112) assigns one Gellep example to Evison’s group II (Evison 1955, 1975), a Belgian product dated IV-Va. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 303) repeats this. Although decoration with glass coil and incised arcs lasts up to Frankish glass of VI, the technique of cracking-of visible on it must be dated to IV. The shape corresponds to Isings 113, about the date of which Isings (1957, 141-2) is uncertain. Date: IV-Va. Glass, no data: 37 examples Examples: B 58.2, B 94.3 (beaker), B 216.7 (botle), B 221.2, B 244.1 (botle), B 345.2 (botle), B 606.2?, B 664.1, B 680.4 (indented), B 686.5, B 704.6 (botle), B 704.7 (beaker), B 705.3 (botle), B 705.4 (small botle), B 706.3 (small botle), B 745.2, B 762.1 (small jug), B 763.3, B 764.9, B 324 — 828.2, OO 9.5, OO 9.6, OO 101.13, OO 103.3, OO 129.1, OO 131.3, OO 145.2, OO 176.12, OO 201.2, OO 250.9, OO 242.4, OO 242.3, OO 339.6, OO 339.7, OO 349.3 (beaker), OO 361.4, OO 467.3 (beaker). Discussion: In all these cases, tiny crumbs of glass is all that remains. Techniques to save the shape in situ did not exist yet at the time of the excavations. Sometimes the shape could be seen in situ and was noted down. FRANKISH POTTERY The presence of Frankish potery in the Grutberg area is tantalizing. Though B stray 146-154 are almost complete pieces that most probably come from graves, not a single grave containing such a jar was found during the careful excavations in area G that did produce B stray 307-315. Alternatively, they may come from one or more votive deposits. Comparing the Nijmegen Frankish potery with Pirling (1966, 128-47, type plates 11-3) has proved diicult. Although some carinated jars look like Gellep 139 and Gellep 140, they can better be described according to Siegmund’s work on Merovingian culture. Siegmund (1998) distinguishes eleven phases of the Merovingian period on the lower Rhine and shows the characteristic types (1998, 204-5, ig. 81). Carinated jars, indicated there with KWT (for Knickwandtöpfe) occur from his phase 3, AD 485530, to his phase 9, AD 640-670. Below, the stray inds from the inner city of Nijmegen, environs of the Gru(i)tberg and Broerstraat, are given according to Siegmund’s periods and types. The shapes not treated in Siegmund 1998 cannot be dated: they are all stray inds. They will be treated ater Siegmund’s types under the heading Uncertain potery. Phase 3, AD 485-530 220 Siegmund KWT 1.11: 1 example Carinated jar with sharp carination and low shoulder. Example: B stray 311 Discussion: The earliest carinated jar with decoration in Siegmund (1998, 204-5, ig. 81, KWT 1.11), is paralleled in our B stray 311 for the low shoulder and the low zone of grooves above the sharp carination; the decoration below the carination, however (ingernail impressions and groups of vertical grooves), is unparalleled in Siegmund. Date: AD 485-530 Phase 4, AD 530-555 221 Siegmund KWT 1.22: 1 example Carinated jar with sot carination and high shoulder. Example: B stray 312 Discussion: Siegmund’s small carinated jar KWT 1.22 has a high slightly everted rim with horizontal grooves as on the Nijmegen sherd B stray 312. Date: AD 530-555 222 Siegmund KWT 2.21: 1 example Carinated jar with oval stamp impressions on the shoulder. Example: B stray 314 Discussion: A carinated jar with oval stamp impressions containing dots, KWT 2.21, also from Siegmund phase 4, is comparable to the Nijmegen sherd B stray 314. Date: AD 530-555 223 Nijmegen 223: 1 example Small double-handled footed bowl. Example: OO stray 291 Discussion: Similar oval stamps containing dots are also reminiscent of the small footed bowl with two vertical handles OO stray 291. Date: AD 530-555 Phase 5, AD 555-570 325 — 224 Siegmund KWT 2.31: 2 examples Carinated jar with incised horizontal lines on the shoulder. Examples: B stray 153, B stray 155 Discussion: Our carinated jars B stray 153, with four horizontal grooves on the shoulder, and B stray 155 with three, ind their best parallel in Siegmund’s KWT 2.31. Date: AD 555-570 228 Siegmund KWT 3.21: 1 example Sharply carinated jar with rouleted decoration on the shoulder. Example: B stray 150 Discussion: The sharply carinated B stray 150 with six horizontal rouleted rows of small impressed squares on the shoulder its best with KWT 3.21. Date: AD 610-640 Phase 6, AD 570-585 229 Siegmund KWT 4.11: 1 example Sotly carinated jar with horizontal grooves on the shoulder. Example: B stray 147 Discussion: The sotly carinated B stray 147 with three horizontal grooves on the shoulder its best with KWT 4.11. Date: AD 610-640 225 Siegmund KWT 3.11-12: 3 examples Carinated jar with rouleted decoration on the shoulder and collar between shoulder and lip. Examples: B stray 146, B stray 154, B stray 309 Discussion: Siegmund’s KWT 3.11 and 3.12 with horizontal rouleting above the carination are parallels for the Nijmegen sherd of B stray 309. Also our B stray 146 and 154, with their collars on the transition to the lip, under which four zones of rouleting, are paralleled in Siegmund’s KWT 3.11-12. Date: AD 570-585 Phase 8, AD 610-640 226 Siegmund KWT 2.22: 1 example Carinated jar with rouleted decoration under a horizontal line on the shoulder. Example: B stray 307 Discussion: Although there is no direct parallel for our B stray 307 on Siegmund’s ig. 81, with its two horizontal grooves under which four zones of rouleting, it its best with Siegmund’s KWT 2.22. Date: AD 610-640 227 Siegmund KWT 2.43: 1 example Carinated jar with high undecorated shoulder. Example: B stray 148 Discussion: The undecorated B stray 148 with its relatively high shoulder is paralleled by KWT 2.43 from the same phase. Date: AD 610-640 230 Siegmund WWT 2.1: 1 example Sagged globular jar with everted lip. Example: B stray 151 Discussion: WWT stands for Wölbwandtopf, globular jar. B stray 151 has the sagged shape and the everted lip of Siegmund’s WWT 2.1. Date: AD 610-640 Phase 9, AD 640-670 231 Siegmund KWT 4.3: 1 example Carinated jar with two cordons and rouleting on the shoulder. Example: B stray 315 Discussion: Sherd B stray 315 with its two cordons and rouleting exactly its Siegmund’s latest carinated jar KWT 4.3. Date: AD 640-670 UNCERTAIN POTTERY Three potery shapes and two shapes of the same ware, all stray inds, are without parallel whatsoever. 326 — 232 Nijmegen 232: 1 example Small globular pot with ridge between shoulder and everted lip. Example: B stray 152 Discussion: No parallel for this small globular pot with ridge between shoulder and everted lip is known to me. Date: ? 233 Nijmegen 233: 1 example Globular pot with groove between shoulder and everted rim. Example: B stray 149 Discussion: No parallel for this globular pot with groove between shoulder and neck and everted rim is known to me. Date: ? 234 Nijmegen 234: 2 examples Coarse botle with high cylindrical neck. Examples: OO stray 230-231. Discussion: No parallel is known to me for these stray inds. In the ind catalogue of Chapter 4, they are listed with Roman coarse potery because of a slight resemblance to the ‘Roman’ handmade botle Gellep 317, dated Va (Pirling/ Siepen 2006, 174), but their status really is unclear. In the museum card catalogue, they are called Frankish. Date: ? 235- ‘Ubbergen potery’: 2 examples 236 Pink coarse ware. Examples: B stray 157, B stray 256. Discussion: B stray 157 is a coarse beaker with careless rouleting; B stray 256 is a coarse botle with tulip-shaped mouth, rouleting and horizontal grooves. No (good) parallels are known to me. This potery ware is shown and discussed in Van Enckevort et al. (2000a, 108-109) and Van Enckevort et al. (2000b, 25). They compare these two pieces plus a third one (a spouted jar with handle of Frankish type Gellep 144) with the waste of an unpublished kiln at Ubbergen (some 1.5 km east of the cemetery of the inner city), which they date c.AD 700. They note that these pieces also come from graves in the environs of the Gru(i)tberg, just like the carinated and globular jars discussed above. This provenance is correct: B stray 256 comes from Korte Nieuwstraat/Grutberg, whereas B stray 157 was found on the Houtmarkt, in the sandstone sarcophagus B stray 156. There is indeed a striking likeness in colour and texture of these three diferent shapes, but whether the quoted suggestion is correct can only be shown by publication of the Ubbergen kiln, including clay analysis of rejects from the kiln and of these three pieces. So far, everything else points to a IVd date in the case of the beaker, and there is a third-century Roman parallel for the botle. B stray 157 was found in the sandstone sarcophagus B stray 156 with high lid (destroyed during the sewerage works that led to its discovery) on the Houtmarkt in 1866. Next to the sarcophagus coins of Valentinian I (364-375), Valens (364378) and Theodosius (385-395) were found (B stray 158-60; Daniëls 1955, 247). The careless rouleting on the beaker is comparable to that on a cooking-pot Gellep 110 from grave OO 463, datable around AD 350, as appears from the presence of OO 463.2, identiied above as the latest example of Künzl 1.4.1. The lost high lid of the sarcophagus of the Houtmarkt, which Daniëls (1955, 247) and Holwerda, quoted there, took for Frankish, is paralleled by the preserved high lid of the Roman sarcophagus of the Grutberg in grave B 620, dated AD 318. The botle B stray 256 with its tulip-shaped mouth is paralleled by a third-century provincial Roman botle from Monte Negro: Germanović et al. (1965, 467-478), inhumation grave 89 at Duklje (Doclea). Frankish parallels (no foot, biconical body): Gellep 285 (Pirling 1974, type plate 7); (no foot, globular body) Siegmund Fla 1.2 in Siegmund’s phase 10, AD 670-705. Date: c.AD 700, or IVd for the beaker, III for the botle. 12 Typology of dress accessories and small objects Atributes and origin Some grave forms and small, mostly metal, objects are not generally Roman, but have a distinct origin within the empire. Tufa sarcofagi and niches in the inhumation graves, as well as bronze miniatures in combination with North Sea shells, interpreted here as Sabazios attributes, point to contact with or even provenance from Cologne: see the present chapter, section Unique pieces from female burials and Chapter 13. Some ibulae even have an ethnic origin: there are so few East Germanic-Sarmatic ibulae in Nijmegen, that they must have shown that the owners were, in Carol van Driel-Murray’s (2003) words, ethnic soldiers. Fith-century long bronze hairpins are of Germanic origin. Such a role, as indicators of Frankish ethnicity, has erroneously been assigned recently to the Roman crossbow ibulae. See Chapter 14, Excursus 1: cemetery OO Frankish?! Gender atributes Most human skeletal material has either completely dissolved (without even leaving outlines) in the acid Nijmegen sandy soil or deteriorated into a state that did not allow of identiication of gender and age. So we have to go by common opinion among archaeologists on male and female atributes. This common opinion will be found per kind of atribute in the discussions of the types. The general division, in the order given below, is as follows. For men: crossbow ibulae, bow knob ibulae, tweezers, axes and a bucket. For women: pins, earrings, necklaces, pendants, beads, all other ibulae, bracelets, most inger-rings, one make-up box, combs, mirrors, cosmetic paletes, wooden chests, shears and sewing-needles; although mirrors and shears are not always female atributes, in Late Roman Nijmegen they are. For both genders: belts, buckles, belt stifeners, knives, shoes and decorative nails. MALE ATTRIBUTES For male belt sets, see the section Atributes for both genders. Hinge ibula with long hinge arms: 1 example Example: B 140.5. Discussion: Van Buchem (1966, 59-63) considers this ibula the earliest crossbow ibula. Sommer (1984, 75) sees it as a forerunner of the crossbow ibulae and dates it IIIab. Haalebos (1986, 58) does not consider it a crossbow ibula and supposes it was worn by soldiers IId-III. Date: IId-III. Crossbow ibulae: 15 examples in several varieties General discussion. Name: Crossbow ibulae, which are hinge ibulae (as opposed to spring ibulae), are known in German as Zwiebelk(n)opibeln; in Dutch irst as kruisboogibulae, but nowadays as drieknoppenibulae; Swit (2000) calls them crossbow brooches; I prefer ibulae instead of brooches, as brooches may be used just for decoration, whereas ibulae are always used to hold two ends of the same piece of cloth together. Use: Van Buchem (1966, 53-55) shows that men (high-ranking soldiers and oicials) used the crossbow ibula in order to fasten the large mantle, known as chlamys, on the right shoulder, in order to leave the right arm free. Of the 158 crossbow ibulae with exact ind circumstances known in the database of Swit, 48% were found on the right shoulder, 10% on the let shoulder and 5% on the breast; 37% were not worn at burial; ‘it is possible that the brooches found on the let shoulder are those of let-handed persons’ (Swit 2000, 4). The foot of the ibula pointed upwards and projected above the shoulder. Positions in the Nijmegen graves: three times (20%) on the right shoulder, two times (13%) on the let shoulder, three times on the coin, three times on the botom of the coin, two times in the middle of the grave, two times unknown. Typology: Crossbow ibulae developed almost organically from AD 290 to AD 500. Typology al- 327 — 328 — ways divides such slow developments into distinct types, meant to be clear-cut but never being so (cf Swit 2000, 13). As a result, competing typologies of the crossbow ibulae have been set up by Van Buchem (1966 and 1973) and by Keller (1971). Neither of these typologies appeared to be satisfactory for identifying the present Nijmegen crossbow ibulae in practice, or for any other crossbow ibulae not taken into account in existing typologies: the same problem was encountered by authors publishing the Lauriacum, Gellep and Lankhills ibulae or cemeteries (Jobst 1975, 92-3; Pirling 1979, 58; Clarke 1979, 257, cited by Swit 2000, 3). In the German literature, Keller is followed. However, Haalebos (1986), the most recent Dutch monograph on ibulae, follows Van Buchem. The unsatisfactory state of afairs is shown by the existence of at least three later typologies: Sommer (1984, 75, based on Van Buchem, Keller, Noll 1974, and Pirling 1979, 56-60) and Prötel 1988, who combined Keller’s types 3 and 4. For the time being, Swit (2000, 13-88) rounds of the typological discussion by partly revising Prötel’s typology (22, Table B), which she concisely compares with that of Keller’s (14, Table A). She takes regional variations into account. The unfortunate result in this study is a mixed typology, using two subtypes of Swit’s (2ii and 2iii) and four subtypes of Prötel’s (3/4A, B, C, D); meanwhile, considerations from other typologies are used below. Bow and foot decoration: Patek (1942) gives two plates of drawings of bow and foot decorations of crossbow ibulae from Pannonia (Pl. XXIX and XXX). Swit (2000, 38-55) enumerates decorations by leters and numbers, but never totally reveals the system behind her numbers; only circle and dot foot decorations are shown systematically on p. 50, ig. 48. Where possible, Swit’s decoration numbers have been given in the ind catalogue. Ethnicity: Since 2005, several Nijmegen archaeologists proclaim the idea that crossbow ibulae are typical of Frankish soldiers and so use them as proof of Frankish presence (Willems et al. 2005, 184, 219; Willems/van Enckevort 2009, 126, 79, 99). Two facts, however, show them to be Roman not Frankish: Swit’s distribution map (2000) shows them along the south side of the entire northern border of the Roman Empire; consular diptychs show them to be proudly worn by the highest oicials in Rome (Buchem 1966). Chronology: The presence in Nijmegen of types Swit/Prötel 2 and 3/4 and the absence of types 1, 5 and 6 makes it clear that the Nijmegen crossbow ibulae play a role only during the fourth century and possibly also in the irst decade of the ith. Beginning and end of their development are absent. Crossbow ibula Swit 2ii (Van Buchem IIIB; Keller 2A; Sommer IIb; Prötel 2): 4 examples Crossbow ibula with hexagonal crossarm on which a decoration piece with undulating upper side, with hexagonal faceted knobs, and a foot in which decoration paterns have been made with a ile (decoration Swit a10). Examples: B 345.3, OO 415.1, OO 461.3 (Keller 2A3A), OO 467.4. Discussion: Sommer dates his IIb to AD 290-363. Van Buchem (1966, 72) dates his types IIIA (with a small undecorated support piece on the crossarm) and IIIB (type Deurne) to AD 280-320, but expects a wider period (AD 250-340). Keller (1971) dates the mass of his type 2A to AD 310350 on the basis of coin inds. Haalebos (1986, 69) writes that type [van Buchem] IIIB seems to originate somewhat later than IIIA and to have been used up the decennium 330-340. I subscribe to Keller’s Bavarian coin dating, AD 310350, however far away Bavaria may seem to be: we are discussing a generally Roman development. Date: AD 310-350. Crossbow ibula Swit 2iii (Van Buchem II or IIIB; Keller 1A or 2A; Sommer IIa; Prötel 2D): 1 example Crossbow ibula with hexagonal crossarm without a decoration piece and with hexagonal faceted knobs, pronounced cuf at base of bow, foot shorter than bow. 329 — Example: OO 161.6 Discussion: The absence of a decoration piece on the crossarm is characteristic of Sommer IIa (corresponding to Van Buchem II and Keller 1A). Keller calls hexagonal faceting rare in his type 1A, and a ixed characteristic of his group 2; Van Buchem does not mention it as a characteristic, but does show it in his group IIIB. So our ibula is a transitory example, and this feature helps to date it. Sommer’s IIa is dated 250-320; Van Buchem dates his group II to AD 240-320, and his IIIB to AD 280-320. Keller dates his 1A to AD 290-320, and his 2A to AD 310-350. The transitory character of our ibula narrows all these possibilities down to AD 310-320. Date: AD 310-320 according to the above considerations; but AD 335-365 according to Prötel. The context of the only example in Nijmegen, with ive pieces of potery, shows a date before the destruction of the potery centres Cologne and Trier (AD 353-355, see Chapter 14, section Two potery periods) to be the right date, and so I adhere to AD 310-320. Crossbow ibulae Prötel 3/4A, B, C, D (Van Buchem V, Keller 3A-3B; 4ABC): 10 examples Knobs are onion-shaped, broader than long. Crossarm has long rectangular or trapezoid cross-section, hexagonal in subtypes 3/4C and D. The bow is shorter than the foot and frequently narrower than it. The foot is longer than the bow, with geometric (3/4A), dot and circle (3/4B), involuted (3/4C) or trapeze decoration (3/4D). Crossbow ibula Van Buchem V (type Vösendorf) has as its main characteristic a crossarm more or less rectangular in section that forms a whole with the decoration; the decoration on them is not an apart piece, but has been made in their tops with a ile. The foot is long and richly decorated, mostly with dot-and-circles and notches. The knobs are onion-shaped. Examples: Prötel 3/4A: B 167.2, B 409.1, OO 248.1, OO 271.4. Prötel 3/4B: OO 283.2 (Keller 3B, entire foot covered with decoration). Prötel 3/4C: OO 426.3 (Keller 4B), OO 437.1 (Keller 4). Prötel 3/4D: B 782.1 (Keller 4C), B stray 181 (Keller 4C). Subtype unknown: B stray 27 (not drawn). Discussion: Van Buchem (1966, 85) calls this his type V and gives AD 340 as a terminus post quem for onion-shaped knobs, and gives coin dates between AD 337 and 380. Keller (1971, 3738) dates the majority of his type 3 to the reign of Constantius II (AD 337-361). Keller (1971, 3841) dates his type 4, with variants depending on the decoration of the foot, to AD 350-380. Haalebos (1986, 69) gives no date for Van Buchem V. Keller ignores his own latest coin date for his type 3 (Valens, AD 364-378). Dates: Prötel 3/4A: AD 325-355 Prötel 3/4B: AD 350-410, but the only example is dated 337-348. Prötel 3/4C: AD 330-410 Prötel 3/4D: AD 330-410 Bow knob ibulae: 2 examples Example: B stray 3a, OO stray 298. Discussion: Van Buchem (1975, 254-255, 262 ig. 15) writes that the bow knob ibula (a spring ibula) owes the shape of its bow and foot to that of the crossbow ibulae (which are hinge ibulae). Böhme (1974, 51-52) remarks the same on support-arm ibulae (German: Stützarmibeln; Dutch: steunarmibulae). The only Nijmegen example of such a support-arm ibula, OO 362.4, comes from a female burial and is treated below under the ibulae for women. The similarity of the Nijmegen bow knob ibula B stray 3a and support-arm ibula OO 362.4, with dot-and-circles on the sides of the bow and faceted foot, is striking. Van Buchem dates our bow knob ibula to IV. Date: IV. Tweezers: 3 or 4 examples Examples: B 59.intr (iron, deviating model), B 61.3 (from one piece of bronze), B 62.1 (idem), OO 144.13 (bronze, no further information: not found in depot). 330 — Discussion: The two preserved bronze tweezers belong to Pirling’s (1966, 210) form A, undecorated tweezers with tapering arms, which she cannot date. Tweezers in Late Roman graves are usually considered male atributes. Pirling does not say so, but the other inds in several Gellep graves with tweezers speak for male burials: a francisca, a long sax, and a spatha found with a belt set. Böhme (1974, 127) remarks that they occur in northwest German cemeteries in male burials, but sometimes also in female ones. Our example B 61.3 comes from a male burial and was hung from a belt with metal belt set, as was the axe found with it. Examples B 62.1 and OO 144.13 come from IVab graves that were not otherwise marked by male or female atributes. The iron tweezers B 59.intr are kept with inds from a IVab female burial (mirror, cosmetic palete, pins) but is of a diferent model for which parallels are known to me only from our own times: the two blades end in a lancet shape and are welded together there. These tweezers possibly are an intrusion from a much later context. Date: IVab. Iron axes: 3 examples Examples: B 61.2, B 143.8, B 353.1 (no data). Discussion: The small curved iron axe B 143.8 with protruding reinforcements around the hole, which give it in side view a semicircular notch at the underside, belongs to the earliest type, put by Siegmund (1998, 204, ig. 81, FBA 2.3) in his period 1, between AD 400 and 440. Böhme (1974, 104-5) calls this axe with its lightly curved top and strongly curved underside his type B, which occurs from III to V, and gives parallels from Belgium and northern France and in cemeteries on the right bank of the Rhine. The curved axe B 61.2, carried above the let leg, with its blade on the wide belt and the edge to the outside, i.e. to the let, is put by Siegmund (1998, 204, ig. 81, FBA 1.1) in his period 2, between AD 440 and 485. Böhme (1974, 106) calls this his shape C, which he does not date. Axe B 353.1 is in the ind list, but could not be found in the depot or the documentation. Iron axes, occurring in Roman and Frankish context between AD 400 and 610 (Siegmund 1998, 204-205, ig. 81) are considered ighting axes, meant to be thrown. They are associated with a passage in Procopius’ Bella, writen between AD 540 and 555. This passage 6,25,3-4 treats the manner of ighting of Frankish intruders under Theudibert/Theodebert in northern Italy in AD 539 and goes: “they had a small body of cavalry about their leader, and these were the only ones armed with spears, while all the rest were foot-soldiers having neither bows nor spears, but each man carried a sword and shield and one axe. Now the iron head of this weapon was thick and exceedingly sharp on both sides, while the wooden handle was very short. And they are accustomed to throw these axes at one signal in the irst charge and thus to shater the shields of the enemy and kill the men.” Now double-edged axes are unknown from Frankish archaeological context. E. Zöllner, cited without source in Engemann/Rüger (1991, 184) has suggested that their qualiication as doubleedged is an ancient topos, i.e. an idea recurring in literature. Dahmlos (1977) treats the archaeological and literary sources for among others these axes. Hübener (1980) treats the axe types from the Merovingian period. For a completely diferent interpretation of axes in Late Roman graves, as symbol of the reclaiming of land by new groups of land owners independent of the patron-client relations connected with the villa system, see Theuws/Alkemade 2000. A third interpretation is given by Brulet (1995, 102-3): for no stated reason, he uses on his map of northern Gaul an icon of an axe like B 143.8 as the indication of a praefectus Laetorum et Sarmatorum, mentioned in the Notitia Dignitatum XLII. The axes of the Nijmegen graves are too few for a choice between these interpretations. Date: B 143.8: AD 400-440; B 61.2: AD 440-485. 331 — Unique pieces from male burials Wooden barrel-shaped bucket: 1 example Example: B 704.9. Discussion: The shape of this small barrel deviates from those of the conical and cylindrical wooden buckets and containers that Böhme discusses (1974, 132-133). He supposes, on the ground of drinking glasses frequently found in them, that they served to scoop beer from a large container and to divide it over the drinking glasses. They mostly occur in male burials, but sometimes also in female ones. He interprets them as atributes of the Germanic social top layer, on the ground of their combination with prestigious table ware: they irst occur in rich graves from Norway to Slovakia, and spread into the area between Elbe and Loire in the fourth century. Auleger (1997) just says that wooden buckets belonged to both genders of the elite in Frankish cemeteries. Neither author dates them. Our grave B 704 was a rich burial, as appears from the plank-built chamber and ive glass vessels found in it. Nothing in it, however, indicates a Germanic origin or the gender of the deceased. The other inds in B 704 date the grave to AD 320-367. Date: AD 320-367. Iron hook: 1 example Example: OO 467.5. Discussion: No parallels are known to me for the lat but thick iron hook from grave OO 467, which the other inds show to be a male burial from IVab. Its function also remains unclear. Most probably it is an intrusion. Date: IVab? FEMALE ATTRIBUTES Short bone pins: 14 examples in two graves Examples: B 298.58-67 (ten examples, lying on the vanished right arm); B 59.14 (four examples, lying to the right of the upper legs; lost). Discussion: Bone pins are not known from Gellep. Neither are they known to Böhme (1974), who discusses the Germanic burials between Elbe and Loire. As the four pins from B 59 were not found upon inspection in the museum depot, only those from B 298 can be discussed here. This grave, which also contained 55 coins, among which nine from the years 313-317, is dated by its latest coin (317-320) to 318. Four pins lack their heads; the lengths of those with head varies between 7 and 9.5 cm. The shape of the heads suggests they were made on a lathe: two are conical, one is disk-shaped, one has a globe on a cone, and two have ive indentations plus a knob (the knob of one of these got partially lost between the moments of inding and drawing). The position, not on the head but on the right half of the body, suggests they were kept in a little bag, possibly in the right hand. As appears from the miniature pair of scales B 298.69, the lady in this grave was a worshipper of Sabazios and kept to the Cologne variant of his cult. There is a striking similarity with the inds from the lady’s burial of Cologne-Lindenthal (Noelke 1984), which contained, apart from many other grave goods, four bone pins, a miniature pair of scales and other Cologne Sabazios miniatures, and a common whelk (Steures 2004ab). So it seems probable that the bone pins too played a role in the Cologne Sabazios cult. They may not be hairpins but so-called divining rods, as used in the divination technique of sortilege, the casting of lots; it that case, they do not ‘lack heads’ but are batons meant like that. The other inds in B 298 date the grave to AD 318; those in B 59, to IVab. Date: IVab. Bronze pins: 9 examples Examples: B 592.3 (latish globular gilt head, in child’s burial), B 663.3 (with polyhedral head), B stray 196 (pin and small ring, no data), B stray 296 (bronze pin from a medieval or later grave), OO 383.4 (fragment of shat), OO 466.1 (broken but complete, l 16.7, with long proiled head), OO stray 47a (l 13.6), OO stray 47b (with pomegranate-shaped head, l 9.8). Discussion: B 663.3 has a head with the polyhedral 332 — model, frequent also in beads: a cube from which the eight corners have been removed, so that a body with fourteen plane faces emerges. B 592.3 has the other frequent model: latishglobular. OO 466.1 and OO stray 47a have a model of which no parallel is known to me: a baluster crowned with a globe. In none of these cases the position in relation to the body is known. The artefact dates of the graves in which they occur are AD 301-400, 341-350, and 301367, respectively. When these dates are compared with those of the silver pins discussed immediately below, their most probable date seems to be IVBC. Date: IVBC. Silver pins: 10 examples Examples: B 122.3 (with axe-shaped head, in a child’s grave), B 293.6 (with polyhedral head, on the right in a wooden chest), B 620.11 (latishglobular head), B 620.12 (with gilt pomegranateshaped head in which crossing curvy lines have been cut), B 690.1, B 690.2 (both with polyhedral head), B 701.10 latish-globular gilt head, found below the skull, so worn on the back of the head, probably to secure a head cloth), B 701.11 (polyhedral head, in wooden chest), B 743.3 (with polyhedral head), OO 252.9 (with polyhedral head). Discussion: Two pairs of silver pins can be identiied: B 620.11 and 12, on top of the head; B 690.1 and 2 next to the right temple. Four instances are known of single pins next to the head: B 122.3 (next to the let temple in a child’s grave), B 743.3, B 701.10 (under the head, i.e. on the back of the head), OO 252.9 (on top of the head, with remains of ?leather, possibly a cap kept in place with the pin; cf. remark of Pirling 1974, 88). The remaining two silver pins, B 293.6 and B 701.11, were each lying in a wooden chest, which, it appears, also functioned as a jewelry box. Pirling (1966, 120-1) dates a silver pin with globular head to IV. Pirling (1974, 88-89) dates pins with polyhedral head IVB-V. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 361) dates pins with polyhedral head throughout IV. Pirling (1979, 64) dates a silver pin with globular head to IVB-cd, one with a polyhedral head to the same period, and one with a pomegranate-shaped head to IVB at the earliest. The pin with axe-shaped head B 122.3 can be dated to IVb, as appears from potery and a coin of Constantinus I from 323-324 found with it; it has parallels in Barrière-Flavy (1901 I, 102, Pl. LXIII, 2-5); Lindenschmit (1880-1889, 386); Pilloy (1886-1912, I Pl. 16,35, II 348, Pl. 19,23). Though the shape of this pin is reminiscent of the axe type Siegmund FBA 4.1, dated 570-585 (Siegmund 1998, 204 ig. 81), it is clear from the pottery and the coin in the grave that the pin must be dated to IVb, and that the head was not meant to look like this axe: the axe type did not exist yet. Date: see discussion. Long pins: 4 examples (in two pairs) of four diferent models Examples: B 465.6 (type Wijster), B 465.7 (type Vermand), B 798.3 (type Fécamp), B 798.4 (type Tongeren). Discussion: Pirling (1966, 182) dates a pin of type Fécamp (see below) at the transition of her phases I and II, in VB. Böhme (1974, 35-39) classes these pins under the name of Haarpfeile (‘hair arrows’); four of his ive types each occur once in Nijmegen, Inner City, in two pairs. B 465.6, found above the skull, head of the pin to the right: bronze pin type Wijster, l 25.5, with mushroom-shaped head on which ive radial grooves, top of shat ribbed, under which three prisma zones. Böhme (1974, 35, Abb. 12) dates type Wijster to Va or Vab on p. 39 and to his phase II, AD 380-420 on p. 155. B 465.7, found next to the right temple, head pointing down: pin type Vermand, l 16.9. Connected to the head by means of two links is a bronze sheet lunula, from which three rhomboid sheet bronze jingles with punched rims are suspended. Böhme (1974, 36-37, 39) dates this type Vermand from Valens (364-378) to Merovingian times. For a possible meaning of this lunula, see the section Pendants below. B 798.3: top part of a bronze pin type Fécamp, 333 — preserved l 5, d 0.9-0.4, entirely decorated with ribs and three faceted zones. Böhme (1974, 35, ig. 12; 38 155) dates type Fécamp to IVd and to his phase II, AD 380-420. B 798.4 Top part of an iron pin, preserved l 4, d 0.4-0.3, with fragment of a wooden head (now mineralized), d 2.3, immediately under which a biconical gilt bronze bead, d 1.5, with crosshatched zone, around the iron shat. Variant of Böhme’s type Tongeren with multiple decorative heads (1974, 36, 39, 155), dated by him to his phase III, AD 400-450 until end of V. Böhme (1974, 39) dates Rhenen grave 356 to VB; in it was a pin of type Tongeren (Böhme 1974, Taf. 60,1). Böhme (1974, 37) remarks that long pins were always worn alone, as opposed to small pins. This does not agree with the facts in both Nijmegen graves, which he does discuss (B 465 on p. 285, Taf. 85 as Nymwegen-Nieuwstraat; B 798 on p. 285, Taf. 86, as Nymwegen-Marienberg). The position of the pins in B 465 is also incorrectly given on his p. 160, ig. 53. He remarks that they were mostly lying next to the right temple of the deceased, and that they were used in order to pin a hair net, coif or head scarf. A large starched coif seems to me the most probable possibility in the case of the spectacular pins in B 465. Below, it is argued that the lady in B 465 was a priestess of a pole-shaped idol shown on three bronze-sheet pendants in her grave (see sections Pendants and Unique pieces from female burials for her pendants and sceptre). I suggest that she was buried in full pontiicals (cf. Steures 2002b). One of these pontiicals might be bent rod B 465.12+21, treated below in the section Shapeless iron. In the case of grave B 798, only the position of the pin of type Fécamp is known: next to the let shoulder, together with a tutulus ibula. The distribution area of the long pins is shown by Böhme (1974, 160 and map 9): Gaul, Belgica and the Lower Rhine area, and on a smaller scale east of the Rhine. He calls them a certain sign of Germanic population (p. 165). He sees them as a sign of long-term contact between the popula- tion east of the Lower Rhine and the Germanic inhabitants of northern Gaul (p. 188). In 1999, he presented a new distribution map of the pins of type Wijster (Böhme 1999, ig. 5). Dates: type Fécamp IVd or AD 380-420; type Tongeren AD 400-500; type Vermand from Valens (364-378) to Merovingian times; type Wijster Va or Vab or AD 380-420. Wire earrings: 3 pairs and single one of gold; two single ones of bronze. Examples: B 204.1 (pair twisted together near let shoulder), B 620.13 (pair in the ears), B 680.5-6 (pair in the ears), OO 250.12 (one gold-wire earring in wooden chest), OO 413.6 (curved round bronze wire). Discussion: The simple gold-wire earrings either have got a real eye by bending back the wire end and soldering it (B 620.13, B 204.1), or have been hooked one end in the other (B 680.5-6, OO 250.12). In all cases the wire end was led through the eye and bent back: the earrings were meant to be worn permanently. There are no real parallels in Gellep (Pirling 1979, 63). Böhme (1974, 3940) can mention only four graves between Elbe and Loire with earrings, one of which is our sarcophagus of the Grutberg (B 620). Only Cortrat grave 6 has comparable earrings and is dated IVd-Va. The other inds in B 204 do not allow to date the grave precisely; those in B 620, to AD 317-318; those in B 680, to IVa-d; those in OO 250, to AD 317-330; those in OO 413, to AD 334350. Date: IVab. Metal-wire necklaces: 5 examples Examples: B 204.4 (necklace of S-shaped links of bronze wire); OO 250.11 (necklace of gold wire links with small precious stones); OO stray 294 (three necklaces of bronze wire links with glass beads). Discussion: No parallels for the metal-wire necklaces from Gaul or Germany are known to me. The Nijmegen necklaces difer considerably one from the other. Scant remains exist of B 204.4: one complete s-shaped link of bronze wire, a 334 — few fragments of other links and three glass beads is all that remains. The technique used for making the links of OO 250.11 had been used earlier for Roman jewelry: the links of gold wire, all identical, l 0.9, were bent into eyelets at both ends, ater which the end was turned once around the wire under the eye. Two parallels for OO 250.11, one with pearls, the other with glass beads, were found in Banassa and are kept in the Archaeological Museum in Rabat, Morocco (Exhibition catalogue Morocco 2004, 201, nos 35 and 36, museum inv.nos PI89.8.9.1 and 99.7.14.2412). Two further parallels for this technique are in the British Museum: the second-century necklace BMCJ 2731 of unknown provenance exists of cut-out paterns alternating with such links with an emerald each; a necklace from Carthage of c.AD 400 completely exists of such links, each link having a sapphire en cabochon (polished without facets), a pearl or an emerald alternately (Dalton 1901, no. 242; colour photograph in Antike Welt 35 (2004) 74, ig. 6a). So three out of four known parallels for OO 250.11 come from Africa; possibly one, in Aalen, from Germania Superior. The position of the four emeralds on our necklace OO 250.11 is conspicuous: all on the same side of the body as the fastening hook, i.e. on the right if the lady who wore it was right-handed. The other precious stones on it are four polyhedral garnets and eight sapphires en cabochon. The unique and conspicuous fastening of eye and hook is described in detail in the ind catalogue. The other inds in B 204 do not allow the grave to be dated precisely; those in OO 250, to AD 317-330. Date: IVa-d. Pendants: 4 examples with a total of 12 pendants Examples: B 154.1 (bronze-wire ringlet from which hangs a link with a bead), B 238.1 (bronze pendant on a rivet), B 465.9 (lunulate pendant and six bronze wire pendants on a bead-and-ibulae pectoral: see remark to B 465), B 465.25 (three identical Preßblech pendants). B 465.25 Discussion: B 154.1, interpreted as an earring by the excavator, deviates from the gold-wire earrings described above, both in material (bronze-wire), way of fastening (one end turned around the other), and in the presence of a bronze-wire pendant with a bead on it. More likely it is to be interpreted as a pendant, probably on a thread of now vanished organic material, put apart in the corner of the coin; the more so, as it was not lying next to the head. The link is made in the same way as those of the gold-wire necklace OO 250.11 and may therefore be dated in Roman times, although the nearest parallels for this pendant are to be dated in Böhner’s phase IV, i.e. the seventh century (Böhner 1958, 116, H; cf. 114, D1). The presence of a rivet in the eye of pendant B 238.1 makes it improbable that it was part of a necklace; it may have been riveted to something made of leather. It was lying near the right shoulder. I know of no parallels for this ind; neither can it be dated, as it was the only artefact. The lunulate pendant on the pectoral from B 465 is the second one in this grave of a woman (l of coin trace 1.70): the other one is on the long pin B 465.7, type Vermand. Lunulae were worn by women and children as amulets of fertility and growth because of their association with waxing moon and menstruation (Der kleine Pauly, s.v. Luna 2; Klumbach 1939; Zadoks-Josephus Jita/ Witeveen 1977). A disadvantage of this 335 — interpretation is, that such an amulet will be of no use, once the person who wore it dies. A possible beter interpretation of the lunula can be found in Schade (2003, 14-15, Pl. 1.6-7.10, Pl. 2.1): some third-century empresses had themselves portrayed on coins in a lunula. She interprets this lunula as the iconographic parallel of the corona radiata of their husbands. The imperial couple thus became the bearers of the lux aeterna, and as Sol and Luna they symbolized the aeternitas domus divinae (the eternity of the divine house). So a lunula in a grave may mean: eternal life ater death. Pirling (1974, 87-88) records three lunulate pendants from Gellep, two of which probably from child inhumations in women’s graves. The three identical pressed bronze-sheet (Preßblech) pendants with horizontal tubular eye B 465.25 bring Nijmegen in contact with the history of the Empire and have for that reason been treated before in Steures 2002b. They show two antithetical male busts with heavy chins and draped shoulders; between them a frontal poleshaped idol with raised arms shaped as leaved branches; legend TV (behind the head on the let), X (behind head on the right) and IIECF or IIECE (below). There is nothing like these pendants in Merovingian Preßblech (Klein-Pfeufer 1993). The inspiration for these pendants comes from a barbaric imitation of a Roman medallion, the only one they really look like: a large gold medallion, known in one example from Zagórzyn, woj. Kaliskie (or Wielkopolski) in Poland, where it was found in 1927 as part of a treasure, since then in the Münzkabinet in Berlin (Regling 1928; Dressel/Regling 1972, 400-402, Taf. XXIX, 265; Seipel 1999, 40 (distribution map), 43 ig. 6, 186-188, cat.no 15; Steures 2002b, 183 ig. 5). It was found together with many fourth-century solidi and many worn denarii of the irst and second centuries AD (showing the same preference for old silver coins as does the denarius of Marcus Aurelius/Faustina in the mouth of the lady in grave B 465; Tacitus already noticed this preference in Germania 5, published AD 98). The medallion is in solid gold, has a diameter of 7,5 cm and weighs, together with a heavy tubular eye soldered on secondarily, 242.49 grams. In the original publication, it is supposed that the medallion itself without the eye weighs 48 solidi = 218.40 grams = two-thirds of a Roman pound. The obverse shows, within a beaded rim, two emperors’ heads opposite each other, with the strange legend R/EZ/ISROMA/NO/R/VM, to be interpreted as REGES ROMANORUM. This strange legend, together with the clumsy style of the obverse, speaks for a barbaric origin of the medallion. The reverse is identical with the reverse of another large golden medallion, of Valens, who was emperor in the east of the otherwise undivided Empire 364-378 (Kubitschek 1909, 39 no. 355, Pl. 20; Seipel 1999, 40 (distribution map), 43 ig. 6, 186-188, cat.no 15; Steures 2002b, 183 ig. 5; Bemman/Quast 2008, 161). One of the emperors on the Berlin medallion must therefore be Valens, the other his brother Valentinian I, emperor in the west 364375. The medallion must date before 24 August 367, the day on which Valentinian’s young son Gratian was given the title of Augustus in the west: its date is narrowed down to the years 364-367. This puts the Berlin medallion just before Valentinian’s fortiication of the Rhine, from its source in the territory of the Raetii up to the ‘Channel-Ocean’ (fretalem Oceanum), in the year 369, as mentioned by Ammianus Marcellinus 28,2,1 and repeated 30,7,6. Byvanck, who irst thought that the North Sea was meant by fretalem Oceanum (Byvanck 1931-1947, I 435), later changed his mind and supposed it was the English Channel. Valentinian, he wrote, fortiied no further down the Rhine than Cologne, and then following the frontier of the territory under direct Roman control, i.e. the road Cologne - Gulik - Heerlen - Maastricht - Tongeren - Bavay - ports on the English Channel (Byvanck 1943, 668-9). Nowadays, however, there is communis opinio among Dutch archaeologists that Valentinian visited Nijmegen on 20 September 368 - with a route of the emperor in the neighbourhood of 336 — Nijmegen and a daring emendation of novo mansione to noviomago in Cod.Theod. 1.6.6 of 20 September 368 as evidence (Seeck 1919, 234; Stolte 1966; De Boone 1954, 103; PRE s.v. Valentinian I, second series 7, 2147; Van Es 1981, 52; Mioulet/ Barthen 1994, 47; in Holleman 1994, Valentinian ‘according to Ammianus Marcellinus’ is in these regions, grumbling over the bad state of the defense works along the frontier). The possibility of his presence is indeed supported by dendrochronologic evidence from the Late Roman bridge on the river Maas between Cuijk and Middelaar, some 11 kilometers south of Nijmegen. This shows a repair phase in winter 368 - spring 369 (Mioulet/Barthen 1994, 47): if Valentinian himself was not in or near Nijmegen, his executives were. This would have meant an opportunity for nearby Germanic leaders to receive the usual Late Roman payment for their neutrality or active support: Roman gold, especially heavy medallions (Bursche 1999). I suggest that another copy of the Berlin medallion was actually handed to a Germanic leader in or near Nijmegen on that occasion. It was then kept in the family for some generations, and led a descendant around AD 440 to have the Preßblech pendants made as a means of tightening the bonds between himself and his followers. It was not the only medallion of Valens to ind barbaric imitation: the Vienna medallion mentioned above was inspiration for a gold pendant from Norway (cf. Kubitschek 1909, pl. 21, 355 with Salin 1935, 217, ig. 505). Nor were the Nijmegen pendants the only Germanic ones inspired by the Berlin medallion. Professor H.W. Böhme kindly drew my atention to the only known Germanic parallel for our Nijmegen Preßblech pendants with antithetical imperial busts. It is a large disk ibula from the earliest inhumation of the small cemetery of Beelen in Westfalen from the middle (Böhme, pers. comm.) or second half of the ith century (Grünewald 1995, 292 and ig. on 290). On the disk ibula there is a gold Preßblech with two antithetical male busts. The hair descending to the neck, indicated by hatching, is exactly like that on the Nijmegen pendants, while the heavy chins on the Beelen ibula must be derived from the Berlin medallion. Grünewald thinks it is something completely diferent: ‘Das Zierblech ist mit einem komplizierten, mehrfach deutbaren Ornament in Preßtechnik versehen. Eine Maskendarstellung wird ihrerseits aus zwei stilisierten Darstellungen von Tiermenschen gebildet.’ This leads him to speculate on the Germanic animal style I. The frontal idol shown on the Nijmegen pendants between the two heads reminds of polelike wooden idols from northwestern Europe in the Iron Age and Roman times (Toorians 1995 has a parallel in Roman times in the Netherlands; further aield: Glob 1969, 182, igs. 74-75; Megaw 1970, nos. 280-282). The maker of the pendants seems to mean the bonding of a Germanic group around an idol. The gold medallion that had served as inspiration showed a dynastic link. The maker of the pendants thus interpreted borrowed Roman iconography in his own Germanic way. The legend on the pendants, TV X IIECF, escapes interpretation for the time being. It is tempting, though, to read awkward Latin into it: TVX HEC F = dux haec fecit: the military leader made this. Unfortunately, only hec as an indeterminate form of the pronoun hic inds a parallel (Schmitz 1991, 77: hec tumulo fecit Hunudrec); TVX for dux and II for h do not. All maters considered, it seems more probable that the text is not awkward Latin but a nonsense inscription of the kind that is frequently found on barbaric imitations of Roman coins, especially on those of the ith and sixth centuries AD (Werner 1935, 108, coins 4 and 7 (V AD); 114-5, coins 46-58 (VI AD)). Whether the family of the deceased woman wrote clumsy Latin or not, it is clear that they emphatically felt like old-fashioned Romans, witness the antique denarius, the interlaced Star of David (see below, in the section Fibulae) borrowed from Roman table silverware, and the Preßblech pendants with their Roman shape and iconography. And it is clear that they were emphatically Germanic, witness the long pins, 337 — B 13.3 OO 413.4 OO stray 294 the composite dish ibula and the idol on the pendants. The pendants, threefold for a reason that escapes us, were lying on a place of honour: on the axis of the coin, just below the feet of the deceased. A last question to be considered is: why put these unique pendants from a men’s world into the grave of a woman? The only reasonable answer seems to be that the deceased lady was intimately linked with that world in a personal way, rather than merely being the wife or daughter of a Germanic leader. It will be argued below that the lady in grave B 465 was a priestess of the pole idol shown on the pendants: she had a sceptre in or near her right hand: see section Unique pieces from female burials: Priestess’ sceptre.

Beads are universally called women’s attributes. Melon beads, however, were also used as soldiers’ amulets and as amulets on horses (Höpken 2003, 353-4). Types. Table 12 gives the types, their incidences and their frequencies. It should be noted that the number ater the name of the most frequently quoted author, Riha, are not her type numbers but her igure numbers. Positions. Strings of beads were worn around the neck, on the breast as part of a pectoral (B 465.8,9,13,14), and at the right wrist; when they were not worn in the grave, they were mostly lying at the let side of the deceased. This appears from the following known positions of beads in relation to the body: once (an amber bead) above the back of the head (B 620.10), nine times near the head, apparently around the neck or, in one case, as part of a spectacular pectoral (B 620.18, B 465.9 (pectoral), B 204.3, B 198.5, B 180.12, OO 273.3, OO 311.2, OO 345.1, OO 304.1), once to the right of the shoulder (OO 99.1), ive times near the right arm (B 298.70, B 204.2, OO 9.9, OO 9.10, OO 382.5), once to the let of the head, put inside a bronze bracelet (B 203.3), once between the thighs, apparently put on the coin and sunken later (OO 12.2), once to the let of the lower legs, apparently put there apart (OO 9.11), once to the let of the feet, apparently put there apart (OO 207.4), twice in a potery vessel (B 196.6, OO 413.4), and once apart outside the coin (B 197.8). Numbers. Strings of more than ten beads were usually mixed (15 examples: B 13.3, B 203.3, B 218.10, B 197.8, B 198.5, OO 9.11, OO 9.9, OO 9.10, OO 9.14, OO 382.5, OO 273.3, OO 311.2, OO 345.1, OO 304.1, OO 413.4). W. van der Sluijs (pers. comm.) comments on the reconstruction of OO 345.1 in the ind catalogue: reconstructing Roman bead strings is risky because, remarkably, they were not always of symmetric design, e.g. a necklace may be half blue, half green. This remark is borne out by the composition of gold-wire necklace OO 250.11, where all four emeralds are on the same side of the body as the fastening hook. Strings of only one kind of beads of the same col- 341 — our and shape occur only four times (B 465.9: dark blue miniature glass beads, gilt or with gold-coloured incrustation, bronze ringlets and a lunulate pendant (see above, Pendants; below, the section Pectoral, and the discussion of the positions of the inds in B 465); OO 12.2: 49 biconical transparent blue glass beads; B 204.2: ive jet or black glass beads each pierced twice, worn as a bracelet; OO 250.10: 49 ring-shaped beads of blue transparent glass. The double occurrence of a 49-bead (= 72) string (OO 12.2, OO 250.11) may not be incidental and recalls number symbolism or even mysticism.) Six times, the number of beads lies between 6 and 10 (B 620.18, B 196.6, OO 207.4, OO 88.1, OO 129.2, OO 396.1). Three times, it lies between 2 and 5 (B 139.2, B 661.1, B 204.2). Seven times, there is only a single bead (B 670.2, B 620.10, B 778.7, B 778.10, B 180.12, OO 99.1 (worn by a man?), OO 339.14). Materials. Most beads are made of glass. Other materials are: amber (B 620.10, B 197.8, B 196.6, OO 413.4), jet (B 204.2-3, B 740.2, OO 207.4), ?rock-crystal (B 197.8), rolled silver sheet (B 196.6), bronze and ivory (OO 413.4), and stone (B stray 139). Glass beads are either transparent or opaque. Transparent glass beads have the following shapes: globular, latish globular, lat-cylindrical, latoval, ring-shaped, tubular, biconical, disk-shaped, barrel-shaped, polyhedral (cubes the corners of which have been removed, so that a body of fourteen planes emerges), irregularly latish, heartshaped, almond-shaped, and hexagonal prisms. The predominant colours of transparent glass beads are green and blue; yellow is rare. Opaque glass beads are of the following shapes: short cylindrical, segmented (i.e. long tubular with transverse ribs and grooves), lat, latish globular, cylindrical with two grooves, lat cylindrical, and hexagonal prisms. The colours are more numerous: white, light green, greyish green, greenish, green, bluish, blue, mixed blue, dark blue, yellow, light brown, brown, dark (no colour distinguishable), black. Both transparent and opque glass beads sometimes have a decoration of glass wire and/or knobs of diferent colours: B 670.2, B 778.10, B 180.12, OO 304.1. Some models. Three melon beads occur (B 140.4, B 203.3, OO 9.12; the irst in faience, the later two of transparent blue glass), possibly reused stray inds from earlier centuries (cf. Pirling 1966, 116, 117 ig. 13, 24; Pirling 1974, 83). B 203 and OO 9 with their bracelets and strings of beads are clearly female burials. Glass melon beads already occur in Celtic contexts and were made until the early Middle Ages. The enigmatic cremation burial B 140 with its melon bead, shears and soldiers’ ibula, however, brings to light a characteristic of melon beads in the irst (from Claudian times: S.M.E. van Lith, BJ 1994, 320) and second centuries AD: as a soldiers’ amulet and around the necks of military horses. The only known workshop for making faience melon beads is in a soldiers’ barracks in Cologne-Alteburg (Höpken 2001; for a melon bead in a horse burial: Theune in Pirling/Siepen (2006, 566). Gilt glass beads are either of transparent colourless glass, originally gilt under an outer layer of glass, type TM 387b (B 203.4, centuries I-X) or opaque dark blue glass with gold-coloured encrustation (B 465.9 and 14; a variant of the black glass type TM 27, mid ith-century). The at least 234 latish globular miniature opaque dark blue glass gilt beads B 465.9 have two unpublished parallels from Aalden-Hoge Hof, municipality of Zweeloo, province Drenthe, NE Netherlands (Assen, Drents Museum 1950/IX 3 and 1950/IX 36): black glass gilt beads with irisation where the gilding is worn of (W. van der Sluijs, pers. comm.; Sluijs 2007, type TM 387b, Goldüberfangperlen = gold-slipped beads). Like grave B 465, the Zweeloo beads are to be dated to Vb (M. Erdrich, pers. comm.). The two barrel-shaped dark blue translucent glass with white glass thread of OO 304.1 have an unpublished, possibly ith-century parallel from Beek in the Liemersmuseum (W. van der Sluijs, pers. comm). The dark blue translucent glass bead of OO 304.1 with six yellow eyes with black have 342 — Late Roman parallels (Riha 1999, no 1177; Guido 1978, Pls. II, IV). The jet beads B 204.2-3 and B 740.2 are known as trilobite beads (Riha 1990, 91: Typ 27, 1345). Riha (1990, 91) quotes Keller, who thinks that imitations in black glass come from Pannonia or Raetia and are fourth-century. OO 207.4 has two jet beads of cylindrical shape. Dates. Riha (1990, 91) writes that Haevernick dates trilobite jet beads like B 204.2-3 and B 740.2 to IIIcd-IVab. Pirling (1966, 118) dates two graves with amber beads in IVab and IVB; she dates a grave with a horn bead, comparable in shape to our bone beads in OO 413.4, to IVB. Pirling (1974, 84) dates beads with a decoration of glass wire to IVB. Pirling (1979, 61) remarks that beads are frequently found in graves without potery or glass vessels, and she supposes that they were mostly given in IVcd. Böhme (1974, 41) dates strings of beads of one colour each mainly to IV, especially to IVcd, and the larger beads with glass wire decoration to V. The presence of segmented beads B 298.70 in a grave dated by its coin series to AD 317-320 shows this model at least to be earlier. The same holds for beads OO 88.1, associated with a coin of AD 317-325. Guido (1978, 92) dates segmented beads from Gallo-Roman examples of I BC to examples in England, beginning in II and frequent IIId-IV. According to Riha (1990, 88) the segmented beads become more numerous IIIdIV; the transparent examples from Augst are accompanied by coins of IVB date. The cylindrical glass bead B 778.10 with zigzag decoration, which looks as if it is incised but probably has lost a glass wire decoration, belongs to a group of opaque cilindrical beads that occur from AD 70-IIab up to V (TempelmannMaczyńska 1985, XXII, types 304-309). Similar beads with glass thread and blob decoration are in OO 304.1. They are exotic beads of the Roman period, without precise date, according to Guido 1978. Late beads. A curious case is grave B 661, where four glass beads were found: two tubular, two barrel-shaped, l 0.4-1.5, green and brick red. From the same grave comes an eighth-century copper sceata. Opaque brick red glass beads occur not earlier than IVd, but they remain en vogue for centuries (Siegmann 1997), and tubular green ones are again popular in VIIIab. So the beads and coin belong together (W. van der Sluijs, pers. comm.) and we have in B 661 one isolated eighth-century grave in cemetery B. Anyway, the presence of two eight-century sceatas B 319.intr and B 661.2 are proof of activities in the eight century on the terrain of cemetery B. The other inds in B 319, where the other eighth-century sceata was found, date that grave unequivocally to IVab. Red brick glass beads like the ones in OO 345.1 do not occur before IVd. The greyish blue transparent beads in the same string of beads OO 345.1 have their best parallels in Liebenau grave P10/A2, which is in Siegmann’s phase 1a, i.e. IVdVa (Siegmann 2002-5, volume 4, s.v. P10/A1). The presence of these greyish blue and brick red glass beads in OO 345 makes it the latest datable grave of cemetery OO, dated here, because of the continuity of cemetery OO, to IVd, i.e. AD 376-400. W. van der Sluijs (pers.comm.) comments: All beads belong to well-known small Late Roman types. The few exceptions are: three ?reused melon beads, the trilobite beads B 204.2-3 and B 740.2, the bluish grey bead or spindle whorl from B 180, the gilt or gold-coloured encrusted beads from the ith-century grave (B 465.9) and grave OO 304 with two beads with molten-on glass wire and the bead with molten-on yellow dots and zigzag wires, to be dated 300-400. Bead complexes from the following graves belong to her early group (Van der Sluijs, 2007): B 13, B 198, B 203, B 218, B 298?, B 740, OO 9 (both early and late), OO 12, OO 88, OO 129, OO 207, OO 311, OO 382, OO 396. Bead complexes from the following graves belong to her late group: B 197 (‘possibly already Frankish’), B 465, B 670 (Van der Sluijs compares it to bead 31 in the girdle of the ‘Zweeloo princess’: Van Es/Ypey 1977, Vons-Comis 1988), OO 9 (both early and late), OO 304, OO 345 (‘possibly 343 — already Frankish’) Date: IVa-Vb, most graves being dated IVab; possibly one case VIIIab. Pectoral The pectoral from grave B 465 has been reconstructed from inds B 465.8,9,13,14. It is described in the ind catalogue of B 465. Böhme (1974, 160-1, ig. 53) shows it in more simple form. The parts of the pectoral are discussed in the sections Beads, Armbrustibulae, Composite dish ibulae with Preßblech decoration, and Pendants. Date: AD 434-450. Fibulae: A Germanic and other ibulae from the time of the cemeteries B Earlier Roman ibulae, deliberately put in the Late Roman graves C Earlier Roman ibulae, from the grave illing (intrusions?) or stray inds A Germanic and other ibulae from the time of the cemeteries Armbrust ibulae with faceted foot as wide as the bow: 6 examples Examples: B 143.4, B 465.8, B 465.11, OO 207.12, OO 362.5, OO 412.2. Discussion: Armbrust ibulae with their wide spring derive their name from their supposed similarity to the medieval crossbow, which is called Armbrust in German. Böhme (1974, 7-8) calls the Armbrust ibulae with faceted foot as wide as the bow the most frequent ibula of the region between Elbe and Loire in the fourth century; in VB one such ibula occurs in Gellep grave 968. The ways of wearing it in Nijmegen are the following: three times they occur as the only ibula in the grave; two graves containing Armbrust ibulae combined them with other ibulae. As the only ibula: B 143.4 was lying at the height of the right shoulder of a small person; apart from this female atribute there was a male one as well: an axe outside the coin, to the right of the hip. OO 207.12 had three ingerrings on its bow and was lying together with other personal ornaments to the let of the feet in the coin. OO 412.1 was lying on the right shoulder as the only artefact in the grave. Combined with other ibulae: B 465.8 was lying together with three small beads on the let next to the lower jaw, the point of its needle pointing upwards. B 465.11 was lying on the middle of the breast, the point of its needle pointing upwards. (To the right of the head was lying composite dish ibula B 465.13.) In the discussion of the positions of the inds in B 465, it is suggested that they were part of a spectacular pectoral. The iron Armbrust ibula OO 362.5 was lying on the middle of the upper body, while on the right shoulder there was lying OO 362.3 and on the let shoulder support arm ibula OO 362.4. Date: IVB-VB. Support-arm ibula with rod-shaped bow and rectangular foot, with axe-support: 1 example Example: OO 362.4. Discussion: The only ibula of this type from Nijmegen was lying on the let shoulder of a person who had tutulus ibula OO 362.3 on the right shoulder and Armbrust ibula OO 362.5 on the middle of the body: so we are dealing with a woman. Böhme (1974, 51-52) classiies this ibula, as a derivate of the crossbow ibula, with the male atributes, but he does know six examples from women’s graves, all east of the river Weser: see his ind list 10, p. 356-7 and map 10. His proposed date of Vab for this type does not it in with the date of AD 334-348 for grave OO 362, derived from potery and a coin of AD 330-340. Date: IVb. Tutulus ibulae: 4 (or 5) examples Examples: B 620.14, B 798.1, B 798.2 (ground plate with spring of a bowl or tutulus ibula), OO 362.3, OO stray 67. Discussion: So far, tutulus ibulae have not been found in pairs in Nijmegen. Fibulae OO 362.3 and B 620.14 are of Böhme’s second type, which he 344 — B 620.14 calls type Nijmegen ater B 620.14 and dates to IVab (Böhme 1974, 19-24). They have been preserved almost completely: in the irst, a conical top piece may be missing; in the later, two layers of organical material are missing. They consist each of a bronze ground plate with bronze spring, and a silver top part (illed with lead in at least one case) alternating with other material, around a stem riveted in the ground plate. B 620.14 was found on the let shoulder of a girl and was the only ibula in this inhumation; OO 362.3 was lying on the right shoulder, while there was a bronze support-arm ibula on the let shoulder, and an Armbrust ibula on the middle of the chest. Part of the ground plate with spring of tutulus ibula B 798.1 is preserved, as is the decorated top piece: the middle part is vanished; together with a pin of type Fécamp they were lying on the let shoulder. The decorative disk with which the top piece closes is not correctly depicted by Böhme (1974, 22, ig. 7 and Pl. 86,3): his drawing was presumably made before the disk was cleaned and restored. This disk looks most like that of Vermand grave 24, which belongs to Böhme’s type Oudenburg, dated to IVC (Böhme 1974, 22, ig. 7; 24, Pl. 138, 1a). The ground plate B 798.2 (position in relation to the body unknown) is smaller than that of B 798.1 and therefore probably belongs not to a tutulus but to a composite dish ibula with a (vanished) Preßblech (cf. Böhme 1974, 285, Pl. 86,6). The lower part of tutulus ibula OO stray 67 is of Böhme type Nijmegen. It is mentioned and depicted by Böhme (1974, 286, Pl. 86,14). The decorative plate of B 798.1 is decorated with four anchors, two cordons and waves. It is tempting to see this as a symbolic image characterizing the lady who wore it: in the eyes of the person who chose the ibula for her, she may have been someone quiet amidst diicult circumstances. The cordons seem to contribute to the symbolism: the cables of the anchors. It reminds the author of the moto of the Dutch founding father, prince William of Orange (15331584): Saevis tranquillus in undis = Quiet amidst the raging waves. Date: Type Nijmegen IVab; type Oudenburg IVC. East Germanic-Sarmatian sheet ibulae (‘Blechibulae’): 4 examples Examples: B 288.1 (silver, lost), B stray 1 (bronze; a complete example and the bow of a second one), OO stray 297 (silver). Discussion: Three out of four Nijmegen sheet ibulae with semicircular head and foot fanning out are stray inds; the only one found during excavations, a silver example, has been lost. Van Buchem mentions B stray 1 and OO stray 297 amongst Frankish ibulae (Van Buchem 1941, 122, nos. 1415 and 1414 respectively, Pl. XIX 7 and 6). They can however be dated in Late Roman times, as the Scotish Traprain silver treasure shows. This treasure is dated by its latest coins of Honorius (west, 395-423; Curle 1923, 5, 84, Pl. XXXII, XXXIII). Its date is further curtailed by the latest coins of the setlement in which the scrap silver treasure was found, of Arcadius (east, 383408; Curle 1923, 110). This ibula type dates therefore not later than Arcadius’ time. The Traprain treasure is also helpful to assign the sheet ibulae to an ethnic group. The sheet ibula in the treasure is one of only two personal ornaments in it; the other one is a Sarmatian hand mirror (Curle 1923, Pl. XXXII, XXXIII; cf. Sulimirski 1970, 153 ig. 55, 169 ig. 63, 195 ig. 345 — 73). A Sarmatian hand mirror was found in Gellep grave 4607, in a part of the cemetery consisting only of IVcd graves (Pirling 1988, 455). This same combination of a Sarmatian hand mirror and such a sheet ibula with a somewhat more pointed foot was found in a woman’s grave near Reims; they are considered proof of the presence of Alano-Sarmatians in Gaul (Pirling 1988, 460 Abb. 6; Kazanski 1986). Pirling calls the ibula East Germanic-Sarmatian. This type of sheet ibula is considered East-Germanic in the Reallexikon der Germanischen Altertumskunde (s.v. Fibel und Fibeltracht, K. Späte Völkerwanderungszeit und Merowingerzeit = Martin 2000, 132 (542), ig. 129, 2); however, all 13 examples depicted there have litle knobs at the edge of the head, which are absent from the Nijmegen and Traprain ibulae. Therefore, the Nijmegen and Traprain ibulae and two examples from the Crimea (Salin 1935, 9 no. 13a, 11 no. 14) seem to be the earliest ones in the type series. Finally, exact parallels for our ibulae are in the Troyes museum, and are considered proof of the presence in Gaul of Alanians, a Sarmatic, i.e. a south Russian ethnic group (Sulimirski 1970, 188, Pl. 57, 58); their capital Orléans was besieged by the Huns AD 451. To round of: these sheet ibulae from both Nijmegen-Inner City and Nijmegen-East are East Germanic-Sarmatian, dating to IVcd-Va, and are especially connected with the Sarmatian ethnic group of the Alans. Alans were mentioned twice as horsemen by Vegetius together with the Huns (Epitoma rei militaris 1,20 ; 3,26). People were coming from southern Russia to Gellep, Nijmegen, Reims, Troyes, Orléans, and their plunder was found as far as Scotland: the Sarmatians were here as Roman auxiliary troups. There were praefecti Laetorum et Sarmatorum in central and northern Gaul (Notitia Dignitatum XLII 65-70; Brulet 1995, 104; see remark on the axes above). Date: IVcd-Va. B 465.13 Composite dish ibulae with Preßblech decoration: 2 or 3 examples Examples: B 365.1, B 465.13, B 798.2? Discussion: The bronze Preßblech decoration was glued to the slightly concave bowl-shaped base with resin. The Preßblech of B 365.1 is lost and four scars can be seen where it was glued. The ground plate B 798.2 (position in relation to the body unknown) is smaller than that of the accompanying tutulus ibula B 798.1 and therefore probably belongs not to a tutulus but to a composite dish ibula with a (vanished) Preßblech (cf. Böhme 1974, 285, Pl. 86,6). Neither ibula can be assigned to a type as deined by Böhme, so their date cannot be more precise than the entire period of this kind of ibula: IVa-Vb (Böhme 1974, 28). Böhme (1974, 26) assigns B 465.13 with the interlaced Star of David to his type Rhenen, thus called ater the two examples found in Rhenen graves 356 and 844 (Böhme 1974, Pls. 60,2 and 67,10). He dates Rhenen grave 356 to the middle of V (Böhme 1974, 39). Rhenen, with its as yet unpublished Late Roman/early medieval cemetery, is some 25 km NW of Nijmegen. Preliminary publication: Van Es/Wagner 2000. Böhme calls the Star of David unthinkable without the IVC Kerbschnit belt sets and dates the type in Vab. And, I might add, it is also unthinkable without the interlaced Stars of David on Roman silver tableware made in several areas of the Ro- 346 — man Empire in the fourth century: the luted bowl of Mildenhall, dated IVc (Brailsford 1947, Pl. 6), and bowl 52 of the Kaiseraugst treasure, put in the ground in 352/352 (Kaufmann-Heinimann/Furger 1984, 10 and 36-37). The later one was probably made in Naissus, present-day Niš in Serbia, as were two other Kaiseraugst pieces with interlaced motives, nos 41 (a luted bowl as well) and 60. Composite dish ibula B 465.13 of type Rhenen was lying to the right of the head and above the vanished right shoulder of the priestess in grave B 465: it may have fastened her dress on the right shoulder. In the discussion of the positions of the inds in B 465, it is suggested that it was part of a spectacular pectoral. Date: IVd-Vb; type Rhenen VB. Gold open-work disk ibula: 1 example Example: B stray 238 Discussion: This gold decorative piece, depicted in colour photograph by Bloemers et al. (1981, frontispiece on p. 4), is assigned by Vierck (1974, 357 and 356, ig. 17,4) to a series of Byzantine and ‘byzantinizing’ jewels from the stylistic group around the goldsmith Eligius (AD 588660), because of its open-work tendrils. Eligius, who was bishop of Noyon from AD 639, worked as a goldsmith in the Paris court of the Merovingian king Dagobert I. (Ater his death he was canonized and is known in English as St. Eloi, patron of goldsmiths.) This makes this stray ind, bought from an art dealer and reportedly found near the Broerkerk, a conspicuously late piece for the Inner City cemetery. The ind report may be false. Date: AD 608-639, assuming Eligius was an accomplished goldsmith at the age of 20 and stopped this work when he became a bishop. Frankish bow ibula: 1 example Example: OO stray 299. Discussion: The Frankish bow ibula depicted by Van Buchem (1941, Pl. XIX 5, p. 122, no. 1413) comes from the Hunerberg, so possibly from cemetery Nijmegen-East. Vallet (19972, 684) calls it the standard female ibula in northern Gaul in VIa: straight foot, semicircular head decorated with ribs and spiral motives, and elongated by ive knobs. The model corresponds to ibula 12.8 in Siegmund (1998, ig. 81), which belongs to his phase 3, AD 485-530. Date: AD 485-530. B Earlier Roman ibulae, deliberately put in the Late Roman graves There are too many earlier Roman ibulae present in the Late Roman graves of Nijmegen to consider their presence accidental, i.e. to think that they happened to get into the illing. We see the same phenomenon with irst- and second-century coins, discussed in Chapter 3. Aucissa ibula: 2 examples Examples: B 132.1 (bronze), OO 48.3 (iron) Discussion: Aucissa ibulae are hinge ibulae, typical of Roman soldiers and made in pre-Flavian times, so in Iab(c) (Haalebos 1986, 43). OO 48.3, of which the position in relation to the body is unknown, may have been dug up unintentionally and thrown into the grave with the illing. B 132.1 was lying to the right of the top of the head and may have been a found example, reused intentionally. Date: Iab(c). Wire ibula: 2 examples Examples: B 204.5, B stray 317. Discussion: B stray 317 comes from a feature earlier than IV near grave B 680; B 204.5 comes from a grave with many female atributes and was lying near the let leg. (Its name in common parlance, soldier’s ibula, is hardly mentioned in the literature, apart from Van de Weerd (1944, 332, no. 13A) and the Reallexikon der Germanischen Altertumskunde (s.v. Fibel und Fibeltracht 516, Abb. 112,1.) The round hole in the foot inds a parallel in a wire ibula from Maurik (Haalebos 1986, 93, ig. 43, 34). Haalebos (1986, 51-52) dates the wire ibulae AD 70 to IIcd. Example B 204.5 may be a found and reused one. Alternatively but less probably, it may have unintention- 347 — ally come into the illing of the grave and sunk to the level of the grave goods aterwards. Date: Ad 70-IId. Knee ibula: 1 example (lost) Example: OO 186.10. Discussion: Knee ibulae, thus called ater the conspicuous bend in their bow, were made in the irst century AD (Haalebos 1986, 30-31). The lost example OO 186.10, which was found on the lower body on the let and was accompanied by seven pieces of potery from IVab, must have been either a found and reused one or an intrusion. Date: I. Hinge ibula with lateral knobs: 1 example Example: B 517.intr. Discussion: There seems to be no exact parallel for B 517.intr. It may be assigned to Van Buchem’s group 20B: strongly proiled bow with lateral knobs (Van Buchem 1941, 96-98, Pl. XI 1-22) and Haalebos’ hinge ibulae C (Haalebos 1986, 46-47, ig. 32, 4-5), dated by him from Claudian times to II. So it may be that B 517.1, found in unknown position in relation to the body, is either an intrusion or something intentionally thrown in the grave as it was being illed. Date: IB-II. C Earlier Roman ibulae, from the grave illing or stray inds (an Aucissa ibula and a wire ibula, discussed above in section B, belong to this category) Eye ibula: 1 or 2 examples Examples: B 231.1, B stray 304. Discussion: Eye ibulae mainly come from Claudian times (Haalebos 1986, 35-41). B 231.1 can therefore be considered either an intrusion from earlier times or something intentionally thrown into the grave as it was being illed. B stray 304, found on the Mariënburg, is called ‘a very big eye ibula’ in the documentation. Date: IB. Rosete ibula: 2 examples Examples: B 227.3 (fragment), B 299.2 (fragment). Discussion: The fragmentary rosete ibulae belong to an early Roman type (Van Buchem 1941, 74-76, Pl. IV), which seems to have been used mainly by indigenous Gallic women (Haalebos 1986, 73; his note 145 refers to B 227.3). For neither example the position in relation to the body is known: one may surmise they are intrusions or intentionally thrown objects in the illing of the grave. Their fragmentary state argues for the irst possibility. Date: IB. OO 101.11 Trumpet ibula Almgren 101: 1 example Example: OO 101.11. Discussion: This conspicuously decorative Germanic silver trumpet ibula comes from an unknown position in the grave, and with its date of Id it will be either an intrusion or something intentionally thrown in the grave as it was being illed in. Date: Id. Other ibulae: 4 examples Examples: B 690.4 (pin of a ibula), B 829.1 (no data), B stray 54, B stray 195. Discussion: No drawing exists of B stray 54. B stray 195 is, according to Van Buchem (1941, p 98, no. 650, Pl X 34), a hinge ibula with strongly proiled bow, found on the Mariënburg; Daniëls (1955, 244, n. 3) contradicts this and thinks that the ibula with inventory number BE.IV.51A is the 348 — one found on the Mariënburg; if so, there is no drawing. B 829.1 is lost and there are no data. Bracelets: A Sapropelite bracelets B Glass bracelets C Bracelets of twisted or twined bronze wire, with a small bell Related with these: small bells with tongue D Undecorated bracelets with expanding fastening E Bronze bracelets: strip, solid penannular and snakeshead bracelets F Hollow bronze sheet bracelets with an iron core G Bone bracelets Combinations of bracelets in our cemeteries usually are a sign of prosperity: they occur in ive rich graves, in two reasonably rich graves, and in two graves with hardly or no other grave goods. The graves concerned are: B 620 (several metal wire bracelets in a rich girl’s grave), B 701 (several examples in a wooden chest in a rich grave), OO 12 (several examples in a reasonably rich grave), OO 9 (several examples in a rich grave), OO 207 (several examples in a reasonably rich grave), OO 252 (diferent materials, same type in rich grave), OO 195 (one at each forearm in a grave with grave goods), OO 382 (several examples in a rich grave), and OO 311 (several examples in grave with one grave good). A Sapropelite bracelets: 3 examples Examples: B 196.7, OO 129.3, OO 252.10. Discussion: The three bracelets discussed here were not found on a wrist. Pirling (1966, 118-119) mentions a bracelet of this sot dull-black material from a grave dated by coins to the years ater AD 298. Under a microscope, the material proved to be cannel coal or sapropelite: a stone formed by the accumulation and compression of dead water-organisms under anaerobic conditions. The material is discussed by M. Teichmüller in Pirling (1974, 227) and in Der Neue Pauly s.v., where its provenance from Bohemia and Moravia is mentioned. Pirling (1974, 87) mentions four sapropelite bracelets to be dated in IVB or IVAB; they were never found on the wrist. Pirling (1979, 62) mentions a sapopelite bracelet, datable to either IVab because of potery or to IVB because of glass beads found with it. Date: IVAB. OO 9.8 B Glass bracelets: 3 examples Examples: B 180.11 (black), OO 9.8 (transparent dark green), OO 252.8 (shining black, opaque). Discussion: Pirling (1974, 86-87) mentions a glass bracelet from a child’s grave in a part of the Gellep cemetery with only IVcd graves. Pirling (1979, 62) dates a new glass bracelet also in IVcd. The Nijmegen graves are to be dated 316-318, 301-350 and 301-350, respectively. Date: IVab. C Bracelets of twisted or twined bronze wire, with a small bell, 6 examples Examples: B 13.2, B 172.3, B 197.7, B 203.3, B 620.7, B 699.1. Discussion: Three out of the four graves mentioned are children’s graves, as appears from their dimensions: the bracelet of twisted metal wire is a litle girl’s atribute. Pirling (1966, 118) mentions a bracelet, twined from three bronze wires with fastening consisting of hook and eye, in a fourth-century grave. Pirling (1966, 180-181) dates them up to Vab. Pirling (1974, 85-86) dates 349 — fourteen new examples to IVB and one around AD 400. Pirling (1979, 61-62) mentions one more example, which she dates ater AD 350 because of its W-E orientation. Swit discusses the bracelets with twisted square section (2000, 128, ig. 151, top right) and the two-strand cable bracelets without (2000, 124; distribution map p. 125, ig. 146) and with wrapped terminals (2000, 123, ig. 144 botom right; distribution map p. 126, ig. 148). Date: IVAB. From B 699.1 hangs a small bell with a tongue. Related to these bracelets are the following inds: Small bells with clapper: 4 examples, two of which hanging from a bracelet Examples: B 185.1, B 683.1, B 699.1, B 740.1. Discussion: Three out of these four graves are children’s graves; the association with twisted bracelets makes it probable that it is a small girls’ atribute. Pirling (1966, 126-127) mentions a small bell from a child’s grave (IIId-IVa), remarking that bells are found more oten in Roman graves (KölnJbVFG 4, 1959, 25), and supposing an apotropaic purpose. Also in the Roman catacombs, twisted bracelets with small bells are interpreted as small girls’ atributes. Willemsen (2003, ig. 52, 79-82) discusses an engraving from Boldeti (1720) on which they are depicted together with dolls. The small bell with concentric circles botom let on this engraving is a striking parallel for the small bell B 185.1 from Nijmegen. Date: IVAB. D Undecorated bracelets with expanding fastening: 8 examples Examples: B 402.1, B 402.2, B 592.2, B 620.9a (iron), B 751.4 (?, iron), OO 207.5, OO 207.6, OO 473.4. Discussion: Undecorated bracelets with expanding fastening consist of metal wire bent in an oval shape whose ends overlap several cm, ater which they are twisted around the wire next to it. They were made to allow for growth or passing over the hand by sliding the ends nearer to one another and thus widening the bracelet. They were probably bought for girls, who kept wearing them into adult age, as appears from the lengths of the coins in which they were found: child’s grave, length unknown - 140 - 160 - 162 - 170 - 194 - 200 - 204 cm (the values above 160 being well over the average length of women of this time). B 620.9, from the sarcophagus of the Grutberg, deviates in three ways from the other examples: it is made of iron wire, it has two metal beads outside the slide fastenings, and 8-shaped iron links hang from it. Remains of three ine bone bracelets, which had been preserved in the iron corrosion, have been let in place at restoration. The iron bracelet B 751.4, which has not been cleaned, has three complete and three broken glass beads on it, and is probably also an iron-wire adjustable bracelet. Pirling (1966, 118) mentions one adjustable bracelet from IVB. Böhme (1974, 45, Taf. 95,11) mentions a variant made of thick wire with thin ends. Swit discusses these bracelets (2000, 127; distribution map p. 125, ig. 146). Date: IVAB. E Bronze bracelets: 28 examples (7 strip bracelets, 8 solid penannular bracelets, 8 snakeshead bracelets, 5 other bracelets) Examples of strip bracelets: B 172.3, OO 12.9, OO 195.1, OO 195.2, OO 341.1, OO 382.6, OO 413.5. Examples of solid penannular bracelets: B stray 29, OO 12.4, OO 12.5, OO 88.2, OO 207.7, OO 473.4, OO stray 295-6. Examples of snakeshead bracelets: B 154.2, B 185.2, OO 12.7, OO 12.8, OO 37.4, OO 311.4, OO 311.5, OO 311.6. Examples of other bronze bracelets: B 701.12, OO 207.8, OO 382.7, OO stray 295-296. Discussion: Swit (2000, 117-185) treats fourthcentury bronze bracelets. As with the crossbow ibulae, she refers to all kinds of decorations by means of numbers, showing drawings without ever deining the decorations or referring to, let alone giving, the complete list from which she 350 — draws. Nevertheless, her decoration numbers are given here. On strip bracelets we have decorations a2 (Swit 2000, 129; distribution map 141 ig. 170), a5 (129; distribution map 140 ig. 169), a14 (129; 132 ig. 156 botom right; distribution map 142 ig. 172) and h3 (145; distribution map 152 ig. 189). On snakeshead bracelets terminals of Swit’s type 1 (153; distribution map 169 ig. 215, something that looks like an abstract version of the naturalistic type 10 (but that is from Raetia and Noricum: 153; distribution maps 170 igs. 217-218), and type 31 (173, distribution map 224). Some decorations found on Nijmegen bracelets are not treated in Swit 2000. The Nijmegen bronze bracelets were never welded fast. There are closed bracelets, bracelets which can be opened and permanently open bracelets. There are two closed bronze bracelets. The ends of the strip bracelet OO 382.6 have been riveted together. OO 311.3 has a double twisted fastening that cannot be expanded (in contrast to the adjustable bracelets discussed under D). Both are strip bracelets with engraved decoration. The other strip bracelets which can be opened derive their rigidity from their fastening. Engraved decoration on the entire exterior surface is found on bracelets of lat-oval section (OO 88.2, OO 195.2, OO stray 296) and on strip bracelets; in four out of these ive, the fastening consisting of hook and eyelet has been preserved (OO 12.9, OO 207.8, OO 195.1, OO 341.1, OO 413.5; eyelet preserved on OO stray 296). B 701.12 possibly has an eyelet. The permanently open bracelets derive their rigidity from their round or square section; they frequently have decorated ends. One has lancetshaped ends (snakesheads?: B 185.2), seven have stylized snakesheads as terminals (B 154.2, OO 37.4, OO 12.6-7, OO 311.4-6). Four permanently open bracelets (called penannular solid bracelets by Swit 2000, 130 ig. 153 top let; distribution maps 131, ig. 154-155) are completely undecorated or almost so: OO 12.4,5,7 and OO stray 295. Also undecorated but lat and band-shaped as well is the permanently open bracelet OO 207.7, which was worn together with three other thin bracelets. An incomplete thin ribbed bracelet is unique: B 172.3. Date: IVAB for all three kinds. F Hollow bronze sheet bracelets (with an iron core?): 3 examples Examples: OO 9.13, OO 29.12, OO 311.7. Discussion: An incomplete hollow bronze sheet bracelet with ingeniously hammered decoration and probably an iron core: OO 9.13; bronze tube OO 29.12 and lat-rectangular iron pieces OO 311.7 possibly also are parts of such bracelets. Pirling (1974, 86) has two such bracelets in one grave, datable to IVB by a coin of AD 337. Cf. Swit (2000, 180 ig. 228). Date: IVcd. G Bone bracelets: 4 examples, 3 of which from one grave Examples: B 620.9b-d (three), B 701.13. Discussion: All four bracelets are in a very fragmentary state. They occur in two rich graves, which both also contain another bracelet. They are very thin and have a round, lat-oval or Dshaped section. As the three examples in B 620 were (partially) preserved by corrosion, other examples elsewhere may have been lost. Date: IVAB. Finger-rings A Gold inger-rings B Silver inger-ring C Bronze inger-rings D Iron inger-ring E Opaque glass inger-rings Only three inger-rings are mentioned for Gellep (Pirling 1966, 119; 1979, 62-63, remarking that inger-rings do not belong to the usual inds). The Nijmegen cemeteries have so far produced twelve rings. Böhme (1974, 120-122) remarks that inger-rings occur both in female and in male graves. There are no parallels for the Nijmegen rings in the studies mentioned. 351 — B 680.5-6, B 680.7 OO 250.13 A Gold inger-rings: 3 examples Examples: B 680.7 (with gold bezel), OO 250.13 (with gem), OO stray 313 (adjustable inger-ring, found on a spoil heap during the excavations near the Margriet pavilion). Discussion: The worn gold inger-ring B 680.7 with gold bezel, on which the upper bodies of a man and a woman are depicted, has the Greek legend OMONOIA = concord. The woman on the let, in proile, raises her right forearm to the breast of her husband on the right, whose body is shown frontally but who turns his head towards her and apparently does not reciprocate her caress. The ring has been discussed by the excavator Brunsting twice: in a newspaper and in an archaeological review (Brunsting 1952a; 1953). He considers it to be a wedding ring that had been worn for a long time. The conspicuous number of seven gold globules with which the bezel is soldered to the hoop, he suggests, might refer to the seven week-gods of the Septizonium, the seven planet-gods, in Roscher’s words Lenker des menschlichen Schicksale: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercurius, Juppiter, Venus, and Saturnus. He does ind parallels but no clue for a date. OMONOIA rings and an OMONOIA gold girdle are discussed by Kathrin Schade and interpreted as wedding atributes; their iconography is compared with that of married couples on sarcophagi (Schade 2003, 124-127, Pl. 15.3-5 (rings), Pl. 17.2 (girdle), Pl. 16.1-2 (sarcophagi)). Her observation that in iconography emotional utering is given to the female half and that the man remains passive, its in very well with the depiction on the Nijmegen ring. But even her study gives us no clue for a date of the Nijmegen ring (other than: earlier than her Theodosian examples), as it has no real parallel. The gold inger-ring with gem OO 250.13 with its special form has no parallel I know of. A comparable human igure on the bevelled glass stone: Gellep grave 740 (Pirling 1966, part 1, 175 ig. 6). Pirling assigns grave 740 to her phase III, to be dated VIbcd (Pirling 1966, part 2, 22, 93, Pl. 65). The other inds in OO 250, however, put the date for the Nijmegen ring no later than IVA. The adjustable gold-wire inger-ring OO stray 313 is unique amongst the inger-rings, but can be compared to the adjustable bronze-wire bracelets of the same structure and is therefore to be dated IVAB. Date: IVAB. B Silver inger-ring: 1 example Example: OO 207.9. Discussion: From the bow of Armbrust ibula OO 207.12 hang two open bronze inger-rings and one closed silver inger-ring. The silver ring, inner d. 1.7, has a hoop w 0.2, which broadens to the shoulders with an engraved triangle each and to a thicker round bezel, d 0.5, with an engraved x. Date: IVab. 352 — E Opaque glass inger-rings: 3 examples Examples: B stray 194 (2x), B stray 199. Discussion: One of these rings has a decoration of three times an O. No further data. Rings of unknown function: 13 examples (18 rings) Examples: B 620.19 (fragment of a small bronze ring, position in sarcophagus unknown), B 670.1 (small bronze ring plus half a second one), B 704.10, B 778.8 (small bronze ring), OO 12.10 (thin bronze ring), OO 49.1 (bronze ringlet, no data), OO 186.9 (bronze ring, no data), OO 195.3-4 (two bronze rings), OO 277.3-4 (two bronze rings), OO 473.5 (iron ring). OO 102.4 C Bronze inger-rings: 5 examples Examples: OO 9.14 (with bezel), OO 29.2c (ingeror belt-ring), OO 102.4 (with gem), OO 207.10-1 (two out of three rings, hanging from a ibula), OO 304.2. Discussion: Grave OO 29, in which not only bronze ring OO 29.2c occurs, but also iron ring OO 29.1, is a male burial, as appears from the belt set. OO 102.4 has a glass gem in which an animal to the let is indicated with a series of drill holes. OO 207.9-11 are three small inger-rings, hanging from the bow of an Armbrust ibula Böhme 37e, i.e. the standard ibula of the Frisia area. One is a silver closed ring, two are bronze open rings, consisting each of a hoop widening from 0.05 to 0.2. The triple bezel of OO 304.2 consists of three oval planes divided from one another by incised lines; on the middle plane there is a semi-globular thickening. Date: IVabc. D Iron inger-ring: 1 example Example: OO 29.1. Discussion: Iron inger-ring OO 29.1 was found in a male inhumation, as appears from a belt set. It has not been cleaned and seems to have a bezel. Date: IVd. Sapropelite (also known as cannel coal or lydite) makeup box: 1 example Example: OO 250.17. Discussion: Make-up or jewelry box OO 250.17 is made of sapropelite, a material discussed above in section A of the bracelets. Its material and dimensions (d 11.4, h when closed 3.9) make it a unique piece. A comparable smaller example made of real lydite (= black lignite, called ater a site near the Lydian city of Gagis) was found in Gellep grave 1223 and dated by Pirling to IVab (Pirling 1966, part 2, 144, Pl. 102:18ab, Pl. 118:4; Pirling/Siepen 2006, 305). In the same study, however, she dates it to IIId-IVa and interprets it as a make-up box because of a lydite spatula lying near it, probably used for applying make-up (Pirling 1966, part 1, 125). Such an indication is missing for the Nijmegen example. The fact that it was empty and that the grave also contained a wooden chest, in which jewelry was usually kept, may mean that this was a make-up box as well. The function of unguent-box, however, is excluded: the intricate incised decoration of the interior botom would be invisible under the unguent and could not be cleaned hygienically. So the most probable function seems to be a box for a powder-puf. When the owner used it, she would see the decoration enhanced by the powder lying in the incised lines. Date: IVA. 353 — Bone combs: 3 examples (one lost) Examples: B 620.16, B 834.7 (lost), OO 400.4. Discussion: Both preserved combs are triangular in shape and consist of three layers of bone, held together with metal pins: B 620.16 had ten bronze pins, of which one is lost; six iron pins are preserved in OO 400.4. Three layers does not mean three plates: comb B 620.16 has seven bone parts; one plate of the middle layer of OO 400.4 is twisted, protrudes and shows a straight side. Some beginnings of the teeth, sawn in the middle layer, are preserved in B 620.16. The outer surfaces of both combs are decorated with dot-and-circles along the sides. Böhme (1974, 122) calls this model form A, to be dated in IVab. According to the documentation there was also a comb B 834.7: if it ever existed, it is now lost. Date: IVab. and Glass Mirror Covers, about whose date and provenance she is silent. The silver-plated bronze mirror OO stray 48, found in the Hugo de Grootstraat, belongs to Lloyd-Morgan’s group Rc (no. 2), Roman Lid Mirrors (Lloyd-Morgan 1981, 74). On p. 69 she seems to imply that this group is irst-century; in that case, the mirror comes not from the fourth-century cemetery OO, but from the irst-century cemetery, which it overlaps. Date: IVab. Cosmetic paletes: 3 instances Examples: B 59.15 (porido verde), B 180.8, B 180.9. Discussion: Cosmetic paletes are not mentioned by Pirling for Gellep, nor by Böhme for the ElbeLoire area. Cosmetic palete B 59.15 is a reused round piece of costly opus sectile, porido verde antico (metamorphic labradorite poririte, provenance: Marathonisi in the southern Peloponnese; determination H. Kars). The two possible cosmetic paletes B 180.8 and B 180.9 are round and of white granular limestone; these too may be reused architectural material. Date: IVab. B 620.17 Mirrors: 3 examples Examples: B 59.13 (lost), B 620.17, B stray 283?, OO stray 48. Discussion: Of those found in the excavation, only mirror B 620.17 with its lead seting is preserved in a heavily restored state (Kempkens 1999, 7). Böhme (1974, 48) writes that mirrors with lead seting are known from Roman graves of the third and fourth centuries, but he mentions this example as the only one between the Elbe and the Loire. Pirling (1966, 1974 and 1979) mentions no mirrors in Gellep. Lloyd-Morgan (1981, 106) assigns this mirror to her group Y, Glass Mirrors B 26.1 Wooden chests: 14 examples plus three loose keys and a ?bolt of a lock Examples: B 26.1, B 207.6, B 293.4, B 320.1, B 701.9, OO 24.2, OO 103.4, OO 144.11?, OO 250.18+14 (decorative nail), OO 250.19? (wood remains with red paint; nails), OO 252.11, OO 301.1, OO 305.1?, OO 339.10 (presumed), OO 354 — 339.11, OO 339.12 (presumed), OO 361.6; B 140.7 (iron keys), B 227.2 (bolt of a lock?), B stray 261 (bronze key). Discussion: The most important literature on these wooden chests is Buschhausen 1971, Gáspár 1986 and Radnóti 1957. Dinkler-von Schubert 1980 points out that these chests were known as arcae not as scrinia, as Buschhausen 1971 calls them. It may be added that the Latin word arcanus (meaning hidden, concealed, secret, private) is connected with arca. Medusa heads on the chests were meant to keep everyone but the owner from looking inside. Measurements of seven chests are known: B 26.1 B 293.4 B 701.9 B 207.6 OO 24.2 OO 339.11 width depth height height lid 38 40 38 38 11 56 ? 6 ? ? ? ? 36 20 24? 35 11 50 28 26 27 ? 11 ≥30 The measurements of B 320.1 (see there) can only be guessed at, but they are of a diferent order: some 10x6 cm. On wood joints and iron corner reinforcements the following remarks may be made. Gáspár (1986, 36), in her book on such chests, refers to Sokolskij, who had remarked that wood joints in antiquity were such that no metal reinforcements were needed. This opinion is not supported by the Nijmegen material presented here: we do ind wood joints three times, but much more often bent lozenge-shaped iron corner reinforcements are used to join side and back. Wood joints are found in B 293.4, B 701.9 and OO 339.11. B 293.4 has dovetails in the front corners of the lid. In B 701.9 two strips on the inside of the front (top right) have been chiselled out, which served to hold two laths that together formed a small compartment for small objects. When the chest was restored (Kempkens 2001), the compartment was made over the entire depth of the chest. OO 339.11 has a dovetail top right between side and front. Moreover, its lid has a hollow proile that closes over the raised inner border of the chest. Iron corner reinforcements are present on four or ive chests: B 26.1, B 293.4, B 207.6(?), OO 250.4 and OO 339.11. Their presence is mysterious, because they are not needed on wood joints. Moreover, they are needed only on heavy chests meant for heavy contents; nothing of the sort has ever been suggested for these chests, nor will it be suggested below. Their coarse character and the sometimes large nails that held them (lat head 1x1 on OO 339.11) excludes that they were meant as decoration. A possible explanation is that they were needed to bear the weight of the lid when it hung completely open. Further nails were found in one possible chest of 56x48, in grave B 6. Remains of iron hinges were found in three chests: B 293.4, B 701.9 and OO 339.11. In B 701.9 one was preserved and restored. In B 293.4 two have been preserved in corroded condition: lat strips of iron that were apparently mounted on the back with two nails each, l 9-13.2, w 2-2.2. At their top is a hole, through which goes the eye of another strip. These strips, broken of in all cases, were apparently mounted vertically on the back of the lid. Two iron hinges of OO 339.11 each consist of two partly folded iron strips, mounted with two iron nails; the vertical one goes with its central part around the hinge pin, the horizontal one does so with two side parts each. Two large bronze decorative nails with rectangular shats and heavy lat-globular heads covered with silver decorative plates held the front holes of each horizontal hinge strip. A discussion of locks is to be found in Gáspár (1986, 40-58). Iron locks, mounted on the inside on the wood have been found in B 26.1, B 701.9 and OO 339.11. The shape of the keyhole in the bronze sheet mounting of B 26.1 and B 701.9, a narrow vertical slit with rounded ends, implies a turning lock in which the key was probably revolved 360o. The iron lock of B 701.9 is preserved, but neither this nor the hinges were included in the 2001 restoration, since they were 355 — only located in the museum depot in 2002. The plate that was part of the lock on the inside of the chest is 10 cm high, and its width tapers from 6.7 at the top and 5 at the botom. The iron lock consists of a strip hanging from the inside of the front of the lid plus this internal lock plate nailed onto the wood and curved in such a way that the iron strip could slide between it and the wood. A square hole in the lock plate has an upstanding bronze pin at the botom right corner, which would snap into a corresponding hole in the strip. The (missing) key conceivably drew the strip towards the wood and away from the bronze pin, thus allowing the chest to open. Chest OO 339.11 has a keyhole of bearded shape. All three belong to Gáspár’s lock type VIII. Keys were found with chests OO 250.18 and OO 252.11. Key OO 250.18a is a turning key with partly hollow shat, that must have ited over the tongue of a lock of Gáspár’s type VIII. OO 252.11e is a slide key and presumably belongs to a lock of Gáspár’s Type III, variant 2. This key is put through the keyhole into the bolt, turned 90o and ited under the tumbling pins that keep the bolt in its place. The key is then lited together with the tumblers, ater which the bolt is slid sidewards together with the key. Turning keys without a lock to which they belonged are the two iron ones B 140.7 and the bronze B stray 261. The small bronze object B 227.2 with rectangular hole and protrusions possibly is the bolt of a lock with a tumbler in the rectangular hole. The bronze sheet mountings were decorative and were ixed with bronze decorative nails, and/or, in the case of loose pieces with igures on them, a white substance; excavator Brunsting in his notes calls it gypsum, whereas restorer Kempkens, in the case of B 701.9, names it lead or tin with lead/tin disease (Kempkens 2001, 1.7). Willer (2000, 366) discusses the alloy used for the bronze sheet of a comparable chest: 86% copper, 7% tin, 7% zinc, no lead. ‘This alloy would be named red brass nowadays, an alloy with good properties for forging, which makes a bloat-free cast possible, a necessary condition for hammering it out to a thin sheet.’ The complete scheme of bronze sheet mountings is known for four chests: B 26.1, B 701.9, OO 339.11 and B 293.4. The irst three mentioned are decorated according to the scheme of Gáspár group VI (1986, 55-56, ig. 44). These groups do not imply a chronology. B 293.4 was decorated in a scheme not depicted by Gáspár: two continuous corner mountings with three protruding and two indented compartments; above them, on the corners of the lid, were mountings corresponding to the protruding compartments. These corner mountings of the lid and the protruding compartments underneath are decorated along their inwardpointing rims by cuting out seven semicircles and piercing two holes behind each semicircle. B 293.4 also has a rectangular keyhole plate and above it, on the lid, a corresponding rectangular plate where the handle must have been. On OO 339.11 the thin undecorated bronze sheet is mounted on the front corners in two groups of three horizontal strips with three small bronze nails each; two narrower corner strips were on the front corners of the lid. In the middle of the top rim is the keyhole plate. Above it, on the front of the lid, is a bronze sheet rectangle with two incised concentric circles between two bronze eyelets in which the handle hangs. The omega-shaped handle has bent proiled ends. On B 26.1, eight bronze sheet corner plates are placed on the front corners in such a way, that square ields with concentric circles and ive decorative nails decorate the front. Also, there are three pentagonal and four round plates decorated in relief. The pentagonal ones have a rosete, which has a frontal human head in its centre, the round ones a winged Amor standing to the right under a tree. B 701.9: Six corner plates connect front and sides: two on the lid, four on the corners. The inside edges are notched with alternating triangles and rectangles; a keyhole-shaped hole is cut behind each triangle. Top and botom edges of the corner plates are punched with small diagonal crosses. On the middle of the top edge is the keyhole plate, decorated in the same way and 356 — B 701.9 mounted with decorative nails showing frontal lions’ heads in relief within a beading. On a loose rectangle to the let is a Christian representation: the chaste Susanna. On the middle, round plate a Medusa head with parted hair and a plait in the middle. Between the top corner plates and the keyhole plate are two vertical rectangular plates with Christian representations: on the let, Daniel in the lions’ den, to the right the raising of Lazarus. These three rectangular plates are the oldest known Christian representations in the Netherlands. They have the common theme ‘God saves from oppression’, a theme discussed by Van Laarhoven (1992, 20-27) as characteristic of the earliest Christian iconography of biblical themes. The Medusa head, from pagan mythology, is conspicuous amidst the Christian representations but can be regarded as apotropaic. (Neuss 1933, 45-47, who also calls the lions’ heads apotropaic; Buschhausen 1971, 9; ClaußThomassen (1991) treats the famous bronze sheets from Mainz-Kastel with - far clearer parallels for the Christian imagery on B 701.9.) Steures (2004a) shows the Nijmegen and MainzKastel parallels together. Of the other chests, the scheme is not completely known; corner and decorative plates were used here too. The following decorative bronze sheets deserve mention. OO 24.2: rectangle with cut-of corners and concave sides, along which oblique punched bows; in concentric circles, a decorative nail with a thin silver plate on an thin bronze plate with Medusa head. A fragment of OO 250.18 shows a fragment of a punched round plate with a Medusa or lion’s head. The facetted green glass plate OO 250.14 was mounted on an iron nail and may have been part of chest OO 250.18. Where contents could be determined, they concern (apart from a coin in OO 339.11) female ornaments, perfumes, dressing accessories, and repair sets. B 320.1: two bronze rings, a bronze buckle with incised tongue, a piece of bronze sheet, a strap end (V-shaped piece of bronze sheet with two rivets on it), a piece of bronze wire or bracelet. B 293.4: sewing-needle, silver pin. B 701.9: glass balsamarium, silver pin, two fragments of a spiral-shaped bracelet, bone bracelet. Two other chests without preserved contents were accompanied by female ornaments: with OO 250.18 necklace, earring, makeup (or jewelry) box and chain of beads; with OO 252.11 bracelets, balsamarium and pin. Pirling (1974, 92) mentions two chests in one grave, one of which, near the head, contained pins, and the other, in the foot end, contained beads, coins, a bracelet and a key. The presence of dress accessories suggests that the chest was used predominantly for the storage of veils and scarves (e.g. OO 250.20 is a piece of textile found in chest OO 250.18). In all cases where the contents told something about the gender of the deceased, ive out of ten chests, this was a woman. Gáspár (1986, 39), who discusses chests in Pannonia, however warns that the idea that chests are purely female is untenable. The position of the chests in the graves was as follows. Once (B 26.1) above and east of the head; once (B 293.4) to the let of the head end; once (OO 339.11) to the right of the head; once (B 701.9) in a large niche to the right of the hip; once, in a child’s grave (B 320.1), ± 25 cm from the foot end on or in the coin; twice (OO 24.1, OO 250.18) in the foot end of the coin, and three times (B 207.6, OO 103.4, OO 252.11) outside the coin on the foot end; so in six out of ten cases near the foot end. 357 — For the distribution of the chests, see Buschhausen (1971) and Böhme (1974, 49-50). About the chronology of the chests the following may be remarked. Chest OO 339.11 contained a coin from AD 332-333 and so was deposited in or ater those years. Pirling (1966, 126) mentions three chests from Gellep, to be dated c.AD 300, IVab and IVB. So they are to be dated to IVAB. Date: IVAB. Iron shears: 2 examples Examples: B 140.2, B 465.23. Discussion: Shears were found in one male (B 140, with a hinge ibula with long hinge arms and a melon bead, both soldiers’ atributes) and one female burial. Pirling (1966, 210) mentions four shears from Gellep: one in a male burial, two in female burials, and one uncertain. Böhme (1974, 126-127) remarks that one-piece shears occur as oten in Germanic male as in female burials, that they are oten near the feet of the deceased, and sometimes near the head or right shoulder. In six instances it is combined with comb and razor within a case, which suggests that at least some of the shears were meant for hair and beard dressing. Finally, he remarks that they only occur in rich burials. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 417-8) points out that shears occur in burials that are diferent from the usual graves, e.g. as they were cremations in the middle of inhumations. This holds for our grave B 140; and the female inhumation B 465 is rich and late, in a time that most graves did not get grave goods anymore. Their inal remark, that shears were probably Germanic rather than Roman, its in with the mixed Roman and Germanic nature of the artefacts in B 465, especially the pectoral suggested in the remark to B 465. Date: IVa-Vb. Ear-pick: 2 examples Example: OO stray 52-3 Discussion: Literature on ear-picks may be found via Cahn/Kaufmann-Heinimann (1984, 122, no. 39). Ear-picks not having been found in regular excavations in cemetery OO, it is doubtful whether these object do come from the Late Roman cemetery. Bronze sewing-needles: 5 examples Examples: B 293.5 (in wooden chest), B 465.19, B stray 196b, B stray 254. OO stray 51. Discussion: The presence of sewing-needle B 293.5 in a wooden chest shows that such chests could contain, apart from personal ornaments, also repair sets for textile. This suggests in its turn that the largest volume of the chests was used for the storage of clothing. (Böhme (1974, 48) mentions needle-cases with iron sewingneedles with threads atached, in the area to the right of the Rhine.) The other inds in B 293 date the grave to IVAB; those in B 465, to AD 434450. Date: IVa-Vb. Glass game counters: 2 examples Examples: OO 12.3, OO 37.5. Both Nijmegen game counters come from female burials. They are of opaque blue or black glass, are round, have a more or less lat underside and a latish convex top. These calculi were used in sets, both in board games (Rieche 1981), and on wooden abaci or calculating boards. Such a playing set is known from Gellep, where 24 decorated playing disks in two colour sets were found, which in view of their number will have been used in the ludus XII scriptorum (Pirling 1966, 125-126, colour plate B opposite p. 124). Giving a single calculus, useless for either calculation or gaming, seems to be a symbolic ritual referring to chance or fate, which play a great role both in games and in (early) death. The theme of board games with this symbolic meaning in graves is discussed by Vermeule (1979, 80-2) and Junker (2003, 11 and 36 n. 41). Both graves OO 12 and OO 37 are dated IVAB by many other inds. Date: IVAB. 358 — Unique pieces in female burials Bronze spatula: 1 example Example: OO 9.15 Discussion: Only one drop-shaped end of a spatula was found. Iron stilus: 1 example Example: OO 252.12 Discussion: The complete iron stilus with point and erasing blade OO 252.12 was found in the top illing of a lady’s grave. It may be an intrusion, or it may have been thrown in intentionally as the grave was being illed in. If so, it was a symbol of the literacy of the lady. Date: AD 350. B 620.15 Tambourine sticks: 4 examples from one grave Example: B 620.15 Discussion: Van Buchem (1958b) already noticed parallels for our four tambourine sticks from the sarcophagus of the Grutberg: at Heßloch and Kaiseraugst. Since then, eight more examples in the northwestern part of the Empire (between northern Italy and Nijmegen) from the third and fourth centuries have become known, all found in rich graves of girls or young women. They are discussed by Martin (1991, 51-57) as parallels for the tambourine sticks of Kaiseraugst grave 814. These ten examples are: Nijmegen B 620 (this study; Fasti Arch. 12, 1957, no. 8280; Van Buchem 1958ab; Böhme 1974, 285, Taf. 84,10; Swinkels/ Deckers-Hageman 1997, 31-34; Steures 2003), Samson grave 9 (Dasnoy 1968, 291), Eprave- Croix-Rouge (Dasnoy 1968, 300), Vermand’Calvaire’ (Viollier 1911), Villers-sous-Erquerie (Baudon 1910), Gellep 552 (Pirling 1966, 127-128, Pl. 52, 1-4), Heßloch grave of 1934 (Biehn 1936), Koenigshofen (Hat/Thevenin 1968; Hat 1970, 324-6; exhibition catalogue Besançon 1993, 25), Kaiseraugst 814 (Martin 1991, 51-57, Taf. 52, 1-24) and San Pietro Incariano (Beschi 1974/75). An eleventh example was found in Brunssum, some 100 km south of Nijmegen (Bogaers 1966). The Nijmegen tambourine sticks come from the grave of a young girl (8-10 years old, or even younger, dentists say who have seen her teeth in the museum). The sticks are made from pear or apple wood, still favourite materials for making musical instruments such as recorders, because these materials are easily worked. The following description is based on the reconstruction drawing by the late J. Ypey; its correctness appeared from observations by the author on the surviving fragments before two tambourine sticks were restored by Jo Kempkens in 1998-1999 (Kempkens 1999, 20-20.2). Length 37.3 cm, diameter 3.5 cm. A symmetrically proiled middle part serves as a handle. Two rectangular apertures, 1.9 x 8.4 cm, have been cut out on both sides of this handle. Somewhat beyond the middle of each aperture, at 6.3 cm from each end of the stick, are two heavy bronze bowl-shaped ratles, their downturned rims directed away from each other (d 4.2-4.7 cm, h 0.75-0.9 cm) on a transverse iron rod (l 3.9, d. 0.4 cm) whose ends have been latened into disks in order to keep the rod in its place. On both ends of each aperture are bronze sheet bands, ends overlapping 1 cm, each kept in place by one bronze nail; width near the handle 1.2 cm, near the ends 1.7 cm. So there are four bands per tambourine stick. There are 13 fragments of wood preserving the complete diameter and bound by or showing impressions of the bronze sheet bands, plus two fragments showing impressions. So the (minimum) number of tambourine sticks from the sarcophagus of the Grutberg is four. The number of preserved ratles, six, i.e. three pairs, is strange, as there must have been eight pairs to four 359 — tambourine sticks. Thickness and weight of the jingles (100 grams per pair: Rimmer 1981, 240) preclude that the missing ones would have corroded away completely: the tambourine sticks appear to have been destroyed before their remains were put in the foot end of the sarcophagus. This was conirmed by the position of broken pieces of the sticks, and the position of one of the bronze sheet bands: near the knees. There are no indications that the four tambourine sticks would have been connected to one another; a small piece of textile clings to one of the bronze bands. Rimmer (1981, 240) remarks that the Nijmegen tambourine sticks are heavy and un-childish. It may be added that they weigh at least 300 grams apiece (100 grams per pair of ratles), so at least 1200 grams for the four sticks, and that they can only be handled with ease with one stick in each hand. The middle part is evidently meant as the grip. Holding two in one hand crossways is impractical even for the hand of an adult. The conclusion seems to be, that two adults played the instruments at the burial ceremony. The junction into pairs with a short chain in the case of tambourine sticks found at Heßloch and Kaiseraugst points in the same direction (and shows how they were handled: vertically or diagonally in two ists, some 10 cm apart). In view of this, the suggestion of Martin (1991, 56) that the instruments were put in these graves because each of the deceased girls liked to play them accompanying herself during a dance, may be rejected. Scipio Aemilianus writes in fragment Malcovati 30: vidi (..) puerum bullatum (..) cum crotalis saltare, quam saltationem impudicus servulus honeste saltare non posset. (‘I saw a boy with a bulla [i.e. son of Roman citizens] dance with percussion instruments, a dance an impudent slave boy could not do with decency.’) In view of Scipio’s words it also is to be excluded that her parents or other family members from this elite would have handled them. The Copa, a poem in the Appendix Vergiliana, shows us a female dancer of low esteem playing these tambourine sticks ad cubitum = to make people lie down in her brothel-like inn (Steures 2003). Looking at the Copa vs 3 (lasciva) and vs 33 (with an ofer of sex) and Scipio Aemilianus’ fragment, we may well understand what the sound of tambourine sticks alluded to: sex. In the Nijmegen case, the instruments were destroyed on purpose before being put in the grave. So they seem to have been made especially for the burial ceremony: hired dancers would not have allowed them to be destroyed if they were their own instruments. All maters considered, the other suggestion of Martin (1991, 56) seems to be more probable: that this kind of instrument played a role at a wedding feast, and that they would have been put in the graves of the deceased girls to make good for the wedding they would never have. This was common practice in antiquity, as with the statue of Phrasikleia (Boardman 1978, 73), with loutrophoroi (In ‘t Veld 1991, pace Kurtz/ Boardman 1971, 152), and, in Late Roman cemeteries, possibly diadems (Martin 1991, 23-28). The subject of the ‘non-atained wedding’ is further discussed by Stefanie Martin-Kilcher (2000). I do not subscribe to her view (2000, 71) that such a tambourine stick is meant in Anthologia Palatina 280, where Timareta dedicates her ball, her dolls and τύμπαvα to Artemis. A τύμπαvov is a round instrument, either an all-metal ketledrum or a tambourine with a drum-skin. Moreover, the τύμπαvα in the poem, like the ball and the doll, are atributes of Timareta’s girl’s age and therefore dedicated the virgin goddess Artemis. Date: AD 317-318. Boar’s tusk: 1 example Example: B 298.68. Discussion: NB This and the following paragraphs on miniature pair of scales and North Sea shells have been published separately as Steures (2004b). B 298 is a female inhumation, as appears from ten bone pins and a chain of glass beads. It also contained two ine dark coloured beakers, a miniature pair of scales, a series of 55 coins and 360 — a series of North Sea shells. Böhme (1974, 116-7) enumerates a number of boars’ tusks from graves between the river Elbe and the Loire as well as in England without interpreting them. He does remark that boars’ tusk amulets probably had the same meaning as boar’s tusks on helmets. The same criticism can be made of Arends (1978, 149, 152-3, 163), who studied a number of amulet categories in the Alamannic area between AD 450 and 700. His only conclusions are: boar’s tusks igure in medium to poor graves in the sixth and seventh centuries, as frequent in male as in female graves, and more oten in pockets of the clothing than as pendants. Three other authors do interpret boar insignia. Beck opens the irst chapter of his monograph Das Ebersignum im Germanischen (Beck 1965, 4) by remarking that boar insignia are related to weapons both in literary tradition and in pre- and protohistoric inds; that, however, belts, buckles and ibulae refer to the chthonic-vegetative aspect of the boar insignia. However, he ignores boar’s tusk amulets to the point of not even mentioning the word Amulet in his index. Pauli (1975, 129) points in the same two directions, by stating that boar’s tusks in Celtic weapon graves refer to power and prowess, and by adding that their more general meaning appears from their presence in children’s and women’s graves. That meaning might be growth and fertility: Fingerlin (1981) shows that lunate amulets made from two boar’s tusks belong to horse gear of Germanic tribes in both Early and Late Roman Imperial times. The same use has been found in the cases of a Roman and a modern amulet (Hansmann/Kriss-Retenbeck 1977, 133, 245-6, igs. 522 and 542); this use of the amulets has been related to their lunate form with its associations of growth (waxing moon) and fertility (menstruation). A disadvantage of this interpretation is, that such an amulet will be of no use, once the person who wore it dies. A possible beter interpretation of the lunula can be found in Schade (2003, 14-15, Pl. 1.6-7.10, Pl. 2.1): some third-century empresses had themselves portrayed on coins in a lunula. She interprets this lunula as the iconographic parallel of the corona radiata of their husbands. The imperial couple thus became the bearers of the lux aeterna, and as Sol and Luna they symbolized the aeternitas domus divinae (the eternity of the divine house). So a lunula or a boar’s tusk in a grave possibly means eternal life ater death. And, of course, a boar’s tusk is a good symbol for aggression, or, puting it more positively, for energetic activity. It is argued below that the mollusks in the shells from the same grave were eaten at the initiation dinner of Sabazios worshippers. Boar’s meat is delicious and Apicius (8,1; 1,1-9; 7,7-8) gives many recipes. Like the shells and the chestnuts discussed below, the tusk may be a memento of this highly symbolic dinner. Date: AD 317-318. Miniature bronze pair of scales: 1 example Example: B 298.69 Discussion: Miniature bronze pair of scales: arm 6.5 cm with central suspension eye, and two eyes in disks of 0.8 cm at the ends (the central hole being higher than the side ones); upper side of arm serrated on one side; the scales, d 2.1 cm, each have three holes, in one of which a small leather thong; remains of a leather purse and a thread on the underside of one of the pans. The shortness of the arm of the pair of scales excludes the possibility that it is a precision balance: the longer the arm, the more precise the balance. Moreover, the central suspension hole must be on the same level as the side holes from which the scales are hung if the pair of scales is to be precise. Steuer (1987, 424) describes the Roman pairs of scales, of which our example is a rude miniature, as follows: “Otmals weisen die Balken auf einer Armhälte, selten auf beiden, eine skalenartige Einteilung durch Kerben oder Bohrungen auf, die zum Verschieben eines zusätzlichen Diferentialgewichtes gedacht ist. Eichmöglichkeit und Koppelung der gleicharmigen Waage mit den Vorteilen der Schnellwaage werden die Ursache für diese 361 — zusätzliche Ausrüstung sein. (...) Aus der ganzen Zeitspanne der Römischen Kaiserzeit werden Waagen in Kastellen und Siedlungen gefunden. Als Grabbeigabe sind sie aüßerst selten und gehören dann in die spätrömische Zeit.” The imitation of the serration excludes the possibility that this miniature pair of scales is meant as a coin balance, even though a series of ityive coins from periods with diferent denominations is present in the same grave. Steuer (1987, 425) writes about the group to which our miniature pair of scales belongs, as follows: “In der Gegend von Köln und Bonn konzentriert, mit wenigen Parallellen aus anderen Gebieten, so in Südengland [and now also in Nijmegen] indet sich aber als Grabbeigabe während des 3. und 4. Jahrhunderts eine Art Miniaturwaage. Sie kommt meist zusammen vor mit Miniaturausführungen von Tieren und Werkzeugen. Diese Waagen und Werkzeuge als Grabbeigaben sind mit dem Mithras-Kult in Zusammenhang gebracht worden.” These groups of so-called Mithraic symbols from rich female inhumations in Cologne and Bonn comprise three kinds of objects; in the classiication of Manning (1966, 50): 1. miniature agricultural tools; 2. animals (lizards, crested snakes, toads or frogs, once a tortoise, once a pair of oxen); 3. ‘symbols’ (oxen’s yokes, ladders, pairs of scales, keys). Cumont (1896, II 525-6) had already pointed out that these miniatures have nothing to do with Mithras: only the snake and the ladder belong to his iconography. Lehner (1915, 51) agreed. Still, the name ‘Mithraic symbols’ (in parentheses) has stuck (Haberey 1949; Linfert-Reich 1974; Wamser et al. 2000, 358-9, cat.no. 87; Kiernan 2009, 195-210). Steuer (1987, 425-6) continues about the miniature pairs of scales: “Sie gehören als Grabbeigabe ausschließlich zu Frauengräbern, so daß u.U. auch die wenigen Frauengräber mit regulären Feinwaagen in diesem Zusammenhang gesehen werden müssen. Bei den Miniaturwaagen handelt es sich um bewußt nachgeahmte Feinwaagen, da bei einigen von Ihnen auch die Kerbenleiste für das ver- schiebbare Tariergewicht vergröbert mit abgeformt ist. Aufällig ist zudem, daß die Gräber mit Miniaturgerät, darunter die Waage, meist auch Münzen enthalten. (...) Die Deutung dieses lokalen, auf die Kölner Gegend beschränkten Kultbrauches ist ofen und hilt vorerst für die Bewertung der Münzwaagen nicht weiter.” Manning (1966, 53), who publishes the only group known then of these miniatures with alleged provenance outside Germania Secunda (‘a tumulus in Sussex’), interprets these miniatures as objects from the cult of Sabazios, on the basis of comparison with symbols on a bronze Sabazios hand in London (= Vermaseren 1983, no. 75). Although Manning is not the irst to call the Cologne miniatures Sabazios symbols, he is the irst to argue their connection to Sabazios. Haberey (1934, 277), writing on inds in the Late Roman cemetery near the Severinstraße in Cologne, calls them in passing ‘(Sabazios?-) Symbole’. However, Haberey did not repeat his suggestion in several publications in which he reported the ind of such miniatures (Haberey 1949, 1960, 1962) and even once expressly refused to name a god (Haberey 1949, 104). Sabazios is a Thraco-Phrygian god, known since the ith century BC, but whose mystery cult became popular in Roman Imperial times. His cult is mainly known from bronze hands with many symbols on them. Agricultural tools are all but absent from the Sabazios hands (apart from a pruning knife and a shovel: Vermaseren 1983, nos 3, 15, 69?, 72). Manning’s interpretation of the agricultural tools is based on two passages in Diodorus Siculus, 4,4,1 and 3,64,2. Sabazios is called a second Dionysos there, he has yoked oxen for the irst time, and he has invented many useful agricultural tools. Manning atributes the symbolic meaning of soul scales to the miniature pairs of scales. In this, he is in agreement with Lane (1989, 33), who discusses the pair of scales as a Sabazios symbol: “Another frequent symbol, occurring on 27 hands and three plaques, is the pair of scales. Here it would seem that the obvious 362 — Table 13: Combinations of pairs of scales with representations of animals, ladders and agricultural tools (oxen’s yokes included) Scales +toad +lizard +snake +ladder +tools Sabazios hands 27 18 16 20 2 - Cologne miniatures 16 3 10 4 14 12 interpretation is that of weighing the worshipper’s merits, or conversely his sins. Perhaps a large and obvious pair of scales was kept in every Sabazius-sanctuary and used at some point in the ritual.” The authors of the corpus of Sabazios monuments (Lane 1980; Vermaseren 1983; Lane 1985; Lane 1989) refer to neither Manning’s article nor the Cologne miniatures. But a statistical base for Manning’s interpretation can be given with the help of the index to the corpus of the Sabazios hands (Vermaseren 1983). There are 96 Sabazios hands in the corpus; 27 of these have on their backs a representation of a pair of scales and of animals. Table 13 gives the combination of representations of pairs of scales with those of animals on Sabazios-hands, in comparison with combinations of miniature pairs of scales with miniature animals, ladders and agricultural tools in the Cologne female inhumations (the later on the basis of the table in Manning 1966, 56; stray inds in the Cologne Niessen Collection have not been counted (Loeschcke/Willers 1911); loose balance arms and pans have been counted as one pair of scales per grave). Linfert-Reich (1973) discusses the groups of Cologne miniatures as if they consist of agricultural tools only (and reptiles mentioned in passing). She suggests that they were meant for working the Elysean ields in the hereater, and ends with the sweeping statement: ‘Spekulationen mit dem Mithras- oder Sabazioskult, oder gar unbekannten Kölnischen Sekten brauchen also für unsere Geräte nicht bemüht zu werden.’ However, Linfert-Reich ignores much of the evidence and, furthermore, the Elysium has always been a paradise of meadows where work was out of the question, whatever the changes in the ideas on the hereater. Manning is right in suggesting a connection between the Cologne groups of miniature scales, ladders, agricultural tools and animals and the Sabazios cult. That Sabazios was worshipped in Cologne appears from the ind of a Sabazios hand there (Vermaseren 1983, no. 50). It seems to be obvious to think of a Cologne variant of the Sabazios cult, because the agricultural tools are lacking on the Sabazios hands. On the other hand, it seems to be exaggerated to call it a sect, because everything in it can be tracked down to the iconography of and literature on Sabazios. I subscribe to the interpretation put forward independently by Manning and Lane: the Nijmegen miniature pair of scales is to be interpreted as an instrument to weigh the soul of the deceased lady and comes from the Cologne variant of the Sabazios cult. Ater the above had been writen, Mr L. Swinkels of Museum Het Valkhof, where the inds are kept, drew my atention to Verhoeven/Ector (1984). They publish two miniatures, a balance arm and a yoke, from Veldhoven (some 60 km southwest of Nijmegen), reach similar conclusions and also speak of a local Cologne variant of the Sabazios cult. They suggest a link between the date around 270-280 for many Cologne miniature groups and the court of the Gallic emperor Postumus at Cologne (258/9-260), apparently leaning on Haberey (1962, 402). This relation seems improbable, for the following reasons. The balances are found also in graves of the irst half of the fourth century (see Table 14 in the section on North Sea shells below). From their own Table on p. 147 it appears that the largest and most famous group of miniatures, from Roden- 363 — kirchen, dates from the time of Gratian, AD 367383. Moreover, at least two of the graves with pairs of scales have been brought in relation with large villae rusticae outside Cologne, not with an urban elite (Cologne-Lindenthal: Noelke 1984; Rodenkirchen: Haberey 1949, 102). The miniature agricultural tools are beter understandable in the context of a villa rustica than in that of an urban court elite. But above all: nothing in Postumus’ propaganda par excellence, the coins, points in the direction of Sabazios, whereas he honours many other gods, amongst whom another god with a mystery cult, Serapis (RIC V II, 328-368, esp. 331). Mr Maarten Dolmans kindly drew my atention to the presence of Sabazios miniatures in the Municipal Museum of Roermond, some 75 km due south of Nijmegen. They come from a Roman cemetery near Roermond. Nijmegen and Roermond may now be added to the distribution map of Sabazios miniatures in Verhoeven/ Ector (1984, 140). Their table on p. 147 shows the date of these miniatures: from Probus (coin of AD 276-282) to Gratian (coin of AD 370-380). Kiernan (2009, 195-210) discusses the Cologne miniatures under the name of the so-called “Mithrassymbole” and sums up the interpretations put forward: as symbols of Mithras; as weights; as symbols of Sabazios (“This theory has most recently been adopted by Steures (2004b) in his discussion of the Nijmegen grave, and is currently the most popular interpretation of the Mithrassymbole.”); a Germanic tradition as magical amulets and jewellery; as symbols of fertility and wealth; and some new ideas. In his conclusions on the Mithrassymbole he writes (p. 210): “These models are a very speciic and localised type grave good, not votive oferings. The Mithassymbole themselves have been something of an archaeological puzzle for well over a century, and there is still no deinitive explanation for them.” Date: AD 317-318. North Sea shells: 1 example (several species in one grave) Example: B 298.71-73 Pullet carpet-shell (Venerupis pullastra Montagu, 1803; Dutch tapijtschelp; perhaps best known under its Italian name of vongola), 1 fragment of right valve; cockle (Cerastoderma (Cardium) edule Linnaeus, 1758; Dutch kokkel), 6 fr of let valve, 5 fr of right valve, 3 fr undeterminable; 1 common whelk, incomplete (Buccinum undatum Linnaeus, 1758; German Wellhornschnecke, Dutch wulk). Discussion: The common whelk, the largest shell (4-10 cm) to be found on the North Sea beach, has been found in four or ive female inhumations from Cologne to Nijmegen from the second half of the third century and the irst half of the fourth. It is always accompanied by a coin series, in three cases by a miniature pair of scales, in one case by other miniatures, and in three cases by bivalve shells: see Table 14. The Cologne and Gellep graves are richly provided with grave goods.

Gellep, grave 533: the whelk (not a mediterranean Turitella, as Pirling writes (1966, 70, Pl. 48, 26)) was lying in the middle of the grave; the other ive shells under which a scallop (Pecten maximum or Jacobaeum) in the middle of the grave, next to the cremation remains. Nijmegen, B 298 = Lange Nieuwstraat grave 88: with bone pins, boar’s tusk, miniature pair of scales, sweet chestnuts, necklace and coin series on the right upper or lower arm. Though the whelk and the molluscs are edible and as such discussed in many cookery-books and lists of mollusc merchants, it is never found as food on a plate. The position in a bag near the right hand in Cologne, Von Werthstraße grave 6, and in Nijmegen on the right arm suggests that the shells were empty when they were put into the graves and that they were very important to the deceased ladies. The only practical use whelk shells ever had for man is their function of horn, the predecessor of the fog-horn on the North Sea. This practical use is excluded here as the whelks still have their apex and therefore no mouthpiece to blow on (Von Werthstraße, Lindenthal, Gellep). In view of their appearing together with miniature pairs of scales and coin series a symbolic meaning seems to be the most probable. Three studies on amulets, one general and two archaeological, give no speciic clues for North Sea shells (Hansmann/Kriss-Retenbeck 1977, 136; Pauli 1975, 128; Arends 1978 discusses cowri shells in Alamannic graves). As the miniature pair of scales in the same Nijmegen grave has above been tentatively interpreted as a soul balance from the mystery cult of Sabazios in its Cologne variant, a symbolic interpretation of the whelk and the bivalve shells in the same sphere seems to be the most atractive. The aim of mystery cults was to approach the divine as near as possible via diferent levels of initiation (Klot 1999, 8). Every horn-shaped snail shell with its clearly visible whorls one on top of the other can be used as a symbol for these levels of initiation, and most of all the largest one to be found in this region: the common whelk. In the same vain it is writen on the website of the Jabikspaad (a Frisian connection to the pilgrim’s route to Santiago de Compostela, with a common whelk as logo): ‘In the kabbalah (the Jewish secret doctrine) the horn-shaped shell is the image of the diferent levels in reality that are connected in the way of a snail shell. This symbolism can be applied to the pilgrim as follows: the lowest whorl is the bodily level. (...) The middle whorl is the moral level. (...) The topmost whorl is the spiritual level. (...)’ (Translation D.St.) And the bivalve shells? Mystery cults knew the obligation for the initiates to keep silent to the uninitiated. I suggest that the bivalve shells are a symbol of this clamming up. (Klot 1999, 7. The 365 — usual etymology of mystery given by Klot, ibid., from μύω = to close the eyes, is wrong. If anything, mystery cults opened the eyes of the initiates, the highest level of initiation in Eleusis being έπoπτεία = watching. The associated verb is μυέω = to initiate.) As all the molluscs concerned are edible and Sabazios-worshippers held ritual dinners (Klot 1999, 38 and igure on 39), it seems to be obvious that these molluscs were eaten at the initiation dinner. Mystery cults ofered their initiates the prospect of a happy hereater, to the exclusion of the non-initiated (Klot 1999, 30). In Aristophanes’ Frogs, Dionysos descends into the underworld; in verses 454-6 a choir of initiates in the underworld sings: ‘for us alone who have been initiated the sun, the holy light shines’. Gluck’s immensely popular Dance of the blessed spirits from his Orfeo, another (mythical) descent into the underworld, perpetuates this idea. People who believe in this provide their deceased loved ones with a proof of initiation in order to guarantee their happiness in the hereater. Both from Dionysiac and Orphic mystery contexts we know of graves containing gold tablets with texts inscribed that were to serve as initiation certiicate, and as such as a passport giving entry to the realm of the happy few in the underworld (Klot 1999, 30-31; Maddoli 1996, 497-8). Applied to the graves in Cologne, Gellep and Nijmegen: the position of the shells together with a coin series near the right hand or arm, and in Gellep next to the cremation remains, suggests that each lady believed she needed the shells in her hand luggage on the journey to the underworld. The shells, I suggest, as a passport that proved her initiation, the coins for a long journey or for another purpose not understood yet. Date: AD 317-318. Sweet chestnuts: 1 example Example: B 298.69b Discussion: The above interpretations of the miniature scales, the shells and the coins in B 298 were already expounded in Steures (2004ab). Nothing was known then about a ind of plant remains in the same grave: the three documentations on which the present ind catalogue of cemetery B is based do not mention them. As a small leather thong was mentioned (and drawn with pencil) in the miniature scales B 298.69, Mr Ronny Meijers of Museum Het Valkhof had been asked in September 2002 to have a look at the scales. He answered that there was no thong remaining, but that he saw impressions of plant remains and a twined thread on the underside of one of the scales. It was not until August 2007, that Prof. C.C. Bakels in a chance meeting told me that the excavator, Prof. Brunsting, had given her plant remains from B 298; she did not know for sure what they were but thought of chestnuts. The same aternoon, she handed me a (cigar) box containing a slip of paper in the handwriting of the late Prof. Brunsting. The slip contained a list of inds of grave LN 88 = B 298, ending with the words: ‘1 bronze pair of scales. By the proximity of the bronze, plant remains were preserved’ (transl. D.St.). Two days later, Prof. Bakels had writen the present Chapter 9, Plant remains in B 298. The chestnuts were lying against the miniature pair of scales in its leather purse, so just like the shells they were not placed onto a plate or dish, and were most probably not meant as food for the deceased lady. Anyway, sweet chestnuts were not popular as food. Apicius (5,2,2) has no more than one recipe, in which they seem less important than the lentils they go with, and Athenaios’ Deipnosphistai (2,54c-d) even contest their edibility. So what do chestnuts mean in this symbolical context? Chestnut wood (always sweet chestnut or Castanea sativa Mill.: the horse-chestnut or Aesculus hippcastaneum L. entered southern Europe not before the 16th century) was known as weather, water and soil resistant (Theophrastos, Historia Plantarum 5,4,2; 5,4,4; 5,7,7) and therefore popular as material for props in vineyards (Columella 4,33,1-5). Their charcoal was used for smelting iron ore (Theophr. o.c. 7,9,2). Enough 366 — B 298 The miniature set of scales, the shells and the ornaments in grave B 298 show the deceased to be an eccentric lady from Cologne, who worshipped Sabazios. material for symbolism around endurance and the four elements of air, water, earth and ire. Conclusion of the last four sections: The miniature pair of scales is to be interpreted as a soul balance from the mystery cult of Sabazios in its Cologne variant. I suggest that the shells were put in the grave as a memento of the initiation dinner and as a passport giving access to the happy part of the hereater. As both scales and shells have parallels mainly in Cologne, I assume that the lady in the Nijmegen grave was a Sabaziosworshipper from Cologne, and that the same holds for the Gellep lady. As opposed to the rich graves of her fellow worshippers in Cologne and Gellep, the Nijmegen grave is not conspicuously richly furnished. The boar’s tusk, without a parallel in this context, is possibly to be interpreted as a symbol of life ater death and/or energetic activity. Priestess’ sceptre: 1 example Example: B 465.16 (a triple ring) and B 465.18 (bronze-sheet knob with mineralized wood in it). Discussion: The section on the three identical bronze-sheet pendants with pole idol (see above, section Pendants, B 465.25) ended with a question and its answer: ‘A last question to be considered is: why put these unique pendants from a men’s world into the grave of a woman? The only reasonable answer seems to be that the deceased lady was intimately linked with that world in a personal way, rather than merely being the wife or daughter of a Germanic leader.’ One more object from her grave has to be mentioned here in order to suggest her position in that men’s world. Near the vanished right hand a bronze sheet knob illed with wood remains was found, consisting of a conical upper part closed with a disk at the top, and a cylindrical lower part (h 2.2 cm, d top 1.9-2.7 cm, d tube 1.8-2.0 cm; cf. Böhme 1974, Taf. 85, 5). It clearly is the 367 — decoration of the knob of a staf. The shape of the small knob with its sharp edge excludes the possibility that it was a walking stick. It seems probable that the staf was held not at the knob, but in the middle part of the shat. Staves are signs of dignity for priests, high oicials and rulers. As the later two possibilities may be safely excluded, I suggest that the deceased lady was a priestess of the idol shown on the pendants. The triple ring B 465.16 with its inner diameter of 1.9 cm seems large for a lady’s inger. It may have been around the sceptre. The only parallels of wooden sceptres with end knobs and with metal parts around the middle known to me come from Britannia, especially sceptres known in the Gallo-Roman temple in Wanborough, Surrey: apparently priests’ atributes (O’Connell/Bird 1994, 94-6, Pl. 11, 107-121; cf. Henig 1984, 136-141, Pl. 62). The only (male) priest of such a pole idol we know of is that of the goddess Nerthus = Mother Earth, mentioned in Tacitus’ Germania 40. This priest sometimes drove the goddess in a chariot drawn by cows through many tribal territories. Something similar happened as late as AD 369372, when the Visigoth king Athanaric had an idol carried around through the setlements of the Christianized Goths (Sozomenos hist. eccl. 6,37): such a priestess seems to be possible in the ith century. Date: AD 440-450. Silver agrafe with four hooks and christogram: 1 example Example: B 690.3. Discussion: Squarish silver plate, reconstructed l 2.3 cm, with originally four hooks bent downwards and inwards extending from its four corners. The two hooks on the right were partly (top) or completely (botom) broken of. Its top surface (h 1.6, w 1.4) has an incised decoration of a christogram (ligature of X and P) in a rectangle, in such a position that the christogram stands when the hooks are on the let and right. It was found on top of the head, while next to the right temple there were two silver pins with polyhe- B 690.3 dral heads. The object has oten been depicted because of the christogram and got diferent names: Brunsting 1969, 24 (‘hair ornament’), Van Es 1972, 202 ig. 47 (‘small bronze plate’), Noviomagus 1979, 68 ig. 80 (‘silver pin’), Bloemers et al. 1981, 120 (idem), Van Es 1981, 261 ig. 203 (‘small silver plate’), Willems 1990, 84 (‘silver pin’: new photograph, which clearly shows the hooks on the let). The object itself got no atention, and the authors did not ask how this staple-like object could be fastened in the hair. The problem is treated in Steures 2004a and in the present section of this study. Four parallels are known: one with a christogram, one whose shape and decoration are similar to B 690.3 but without a christogram, and two that correspond only in shape. The parallel with christogram is an unpublished tin-plated bronze agrafe with four hooks from Collection C.S. in Munich, which was shown at the exhibition on Constantine the Great at Trier in 2007 (Schmidt 2007). It probably comes from Spain and its date is given as IVA, probably for typological reasons, because it is compared to the labarum: double punched square, double punched circle, christogram in the centre (standing when the hooks are above and below), and dot-and-circles in the four corners. The later would then be rudimentary imperial portraits 368 — (imagines clipeatae), and the double circle a stylized laurel wreath, according to the reconstruction of the labarum by W. Hahn (1999). The best parallel up to the year 2007 was found as ind no. 6462 on the botom of a funerary pit, a closed ind to be dated around AD 350, near the Roman villa at Montmaurin (Haute-Garonne, between Toulouse and the Pyrenees). The excavator, G. Fouet, discusses this silver agrafe à quatre crochets (‘agrafe with four hooks’) three times (Fouet 1958, 168 ig. 28; 1963, 285 ig. 5, 289-291; 1969, 184, Pl. XLIX, LVIII). No parallels are known to him. The decoration on its square middle part is partly punched, partly incised: in a cadre of four triangular pairs of horns there is a circle (d 0.9 cm) divided by a cross. The quadrants have stylized symbols: crescents, possibly an axe, possibly a star. Fouet shows the striking similarity of this decoration and that on the reverse of coins of the Volcae Tectosages, who lived between Toulouse and Narbonne; and that of a circle divided by a cross on textless altars in the Pyrenees for a Jupiter-like god, one of which was found in the same villa (Fouet 1963, 285 ig. 5,6, 290). Fouet (1963, 292, note 51) considers his agrafe 6462 to be a particular form of the staple-like dress-hook known as agrafes à double crochet (double-hooked agrafes), the origin of which goes back to La Tène III in the irst century BC. These occurred in the Gallo-Roman culture, e.g. four times in the same Montmaurin villa. The double-hooked agrafes have their most frequent appearance in Merovingian times, esp. in the 7th century, in an area Fouet describes as ‘from Belgium to Lyon and from Normandy to the Rhine areas’ (Fouet 1963, 277). Martin (1991, 78), however, thinks that the four-hooked agrafes are the forerunners of the double-hooked ones. Schulze-Dörlamm (2002, 137) writes that agrafes of Late Roman time were only worn by the provincial Roman population of Gaul, and that they were used in the early middle ages exclusively by the Romanesque population of the Merovingian empire. Her opinion is untenable, as we also know of ex- amples from the Netherlands, three of which of unknown date and provenance in Nijmegen (Roes 1954a, Pl. XIX, 81 and 84 (84 should be 82); Roes 1954b, 331 ig. 140 botom: Friesland; 332 ig. 141: Domburg). Audin (1955, 158) describes the distribution area ‘from Frisia to Switzerland and the area around Lyon’. Gellep grave 1121 contains a brooch mounted on such an agrafe à double crochet, accompanied by a twined bracelet, datable IVc - Vab (Pirling 1966, 132, Taf. 91, 23abc). Audin (1955, 158-9) and Jeannet (1957, 151) made the objection that textile and hook of the agrafe à double crochet would have ruined each other if someone would have worn it. On the basis of his excavations in Lyon where he found ten agrafes, Audin (1955, 159) is convinced that they were used in order to close shrouds. The two other parallels for the Nijmegen agrafe with four hooks, from Abbeville female burial 52 and from Yverdon ‘Pré-de-la-Cure’, are depicted by Schulze-Dörlamm (2002, 139, Abb. 3) ater the original publications. In view of the Montmaurin parallel, which is irmly rooted in southern France, it seems probable that our Nijmegen example has the same date and provenance. Southern France was christianized much earlier than the Netherlands: the Nijmegen lady may have come from that area. As the christogram was a decoration on an ornament, it was meant to be seen: the lady proclaimed that she was a Christian. That cannot have been a problem in the fourth century, in which all emperors were Christians (originally even Julian, who got his nickname the Apostate not for nothing). It is striking that the Nijmegen and the Montmaurin four-hooked agrafes both carry religious symbols, but from two very different religions. In view of the likeness of the Nijmegen agrafe and its four parallels to the present-day bandage hooks of thin metal and elastic with which rollerbandages are ixed, it seems likely that they were applied in order to ix two layers of the same piece of textile that had been drawn irmly one over the other: the textile itself ixes the hook and one will not easily loose it. It is not 369 — necessary to suppose with Fouet (1963, 278; 1969, 184) that the agrafe was sewn to the edge of the textile: in that case two hooks would have been beter replaced by sewing-holes. In view of the horizontal position of the Nijmegen agrafe three textile objects seem to be possible: bandage, head-shawl and headband. Bandage can be excluded: one does not leave pins under a bandage if they have angular heads, as there were two on the right temple. For the same reason a head-shawl may be excluded: the heads of the pins were meant to be seen as ornaments. Remains that the agrafe was used in order to ix the two ends of a headband on the front top side of the head (cf. Fouet 1963, 278). We know of more instances of headbands being closed there (e.g. Bianchi Bandinelli 1970, 33 ig. 38: Demeter/Kore from Ariccia). So the lady wore a head dress that was kept in its place with the two pins, a headband and the agrafe. The position of the Nijmegen agrafe on the top front of the head its in with Schulze-Dörlamm’s supposition that a ith-century example (of completely diferent shape and decoration) from Mainz was used in order to close a diadem on the forehead (2002, 138-140, Abb. 4). The Abbeville agrafe was found on the middle of the breast: it closed clothes or a shroud. The Munich agrafe with four hooks and a christogram in vertical position cannot have been meant for a horizontal headband and must have closed a garment in vertical direction, though it is not clear what kind of garment that was if not a bandage on the arm. Date: c.AD 350. Small textile bag with handle: 1 example Example: B 185.4-6. Discussion: The small handbag with a handle B 185.4 was found in a girl’s grave, as appears from the dimensions of the coin (140x55 cm) and the presence of bronze bell B 185.1. Three round links of an iron chain are visible, d 1 cm, on a heap of two textiles, now carbonized. Textile 1 is folded, c.5x5 cm, and textile 2 consists of two card-wet bands, l 13 cm and 3.2 cm. It may have been a small bag with a band handle, hanging from a chain around the waist. The presence of textile bags or sacks, now completely vanished, has been supposed in view of the position of shells, coins and bone pins in B 298. Also in B 298 there were remains of the leather case of miniature pair of scales B 298.69. Miniature pantomime mask: 1 example Example: B 197.6. Discussion: The main text of the description in Van Boekel (1987, 798-9) is copied below; notes and detail description are let out. “Miniature mask of a woman with high onkos. The woman has an oval face, a rounded chin, a prominent curved nose, and full lips. The small mouth is closed. Eight thick curls frame the face and a thick curl (or ear-ring?) is visible on either side of the face near the cheeks. The relief on the woman’s skull is not sharp. Horizontal bands are rendered by two rounded cavities encircled by ribbons above the hair-roll. The onkos is devided into two oblong parts with concave fronts and rounded tops, reminiscent of animal ears. Two small suspension holes are pierced in the skull behind the smooth back of the onkos. The mask’s back is concave. The mask is completely covered with white slip on which many small traces of elaborate painting remain. Green paint is visible on the front of the onkos. Traces of blue-brown and redbrown paint are found in the concave front of the let part of the onkos, the let cavity in the head-dress, and on the lips. The head-dress preserves traces of brown and brown-red paint (PCC Brown C and Brown/Red B5, respectively. Yellow-brown paint (near PCC Yellow/Brown A3) is visible on the forehead and on the face along the let eye. Traces of brown paint (slightly darker than PCC Brown C6) are seen on the let part of the hair and head-dress, and on the let protruding lock (or ear-ring). The mask can be ascribed to the Trier-Süd ceramic centre (...) and is dated to AD IVA by the ind-circumstances (...). Type I, A.” Van Boekel (1987, 790) interprets it as the depic- 370 — tion of a pantomime actor because of the closed mouth. About its function in the grave she writes (1987, 790): “The masks are a Dionysiac-Bacchic symbol and therefore have an eschatological signiicance, namely, the guarantee that the deceased will be accepted in the Bacchic thiasos in the Underworld to lead a new, happy existence.” In 1996, she is more cautious and writes the following caution before the same interpretation: ‘Perhaps a religious meaning may be connected with these grave inds.’ (Van Boekel 1996, 26). Her interpretation is supported by a similar one of the many miniature theatre masks from the Greek necropolis of the island of Lipari, north of Sicily, from the fourth and third centuries BC (Bernabò Brea 1981, 21-5; Bernabò Brea/Cavalier 2001, 19-22). Date: IVab. Distaf?: 1 example Example: OO 12.11. Discussion: The thin round iron rod with wooden handle, preserved length 12.8, d 1 cm, from a female burial possibly is a distaf, the stick on which wool was wound for spinning by hand, and that was held in the let hand by a righthanded spinner. There are two usual interpretations for the symbolic deposition of distafs in female inhumations. The irst interpretation, of social standing, is discussed comprehensively by Elisabeth Trinkl (2000) and succinctly by Van Es (1981, 212). Trinkl’s most important sentence goes: “Vor allem im Sepulkralbereich werden die Geräte der Wollverarbeitung ein Synonym für die domina, die zeitlebens ihren Plichten nachkam und alle Agenden im und um das Haus organisierte.” Van Es discusses an amber distaf in an inhumation at Esch (some 60 km west of Nijmegen) as an atribute of women of the propertied class: “Perhaps they managed not only the kitchen and the larder, but also they supervised textile production by the female staf. The amber distaf from a Cologne workshop could point in that direction. It does not look like a real tool, but rather like a symbol of the dignity of the mistress, just like the rank of the sergeant-major is underlined by his baton.” (Transl. D.St.) This use of a wand as the atribute of the matron as head of the household is indeed mentioned by Ammianus Marcellinus (14,6,17), who ridicules the habit of parading the entire household through the streets of Rome behind the matron holding a virga, as if she were at the head of an army. Generally, no spindle-whorls are found in graves with distafs: indeed a sign that the distaf is an atribute of the highest rank within the household. The second interpretation, a transcendental one, is expressed by Renate Pirling (1976 = 1994, 85-89) in an article with the signiicant title Klothos Kunkel (Clotho’s distaf): gagate and amber distafs would be an allusion to the Parcae, the three godesses of destiny. Clotho is the one who spins our life’s thread. Two examples of a terracota statuete of a woman with distaf are known from the Netherlands. Van Boekel (1987, 578584) treats them under the heading Women with distaf/Parcae. The one in the Gallo-Roman temple of Aardenburg atests to use in religious rites; the other in the Roman villa of Hoogeloon probably had a role in private domestic worship (Van Boekel 1987, 580). These two interpretations do not exclude one another and so may be applied at the same time. Date: IVAB. ATTRIBUTES FOR BOTH GENDERS Coins: 70 graves, 14 stray, 209 coins Examples: see coin lists ater Chapter 14. Discussion: Coins play an important role in dating the graves and the interpretation of the two cemeteries. As there are many diferent aspects, they are discussed in diferent chapters of this study. In Chapter 3, Explanatory notes to the ind catalogue, in the section titled First and second-century coins and ibulae: intrusions? (p. 12), it is argued 371 — that early coins (and ibulae) were put into the graves intentionally; in the section titled Assessing the dates of the graves in real years (p. 12-15), the way the coin periods were used for fairly exact dates is discussed. In Chapter 12, Typology of dress accessories, the two eighth-century sceatas are discussed in the section on Beads because of the association of one of them with eighth-century beads in grave B 661 (p. 307). Finally, coin periods and mints are discussed in Chapter 14, Interpretation, in the section titled Chronology - The beginning. Ater the inal chapter, there are three coin lists: Coin list 1: per grave in the order of the grave numbers; Coin list 2: per grave in the order of their latest coins; Coin list 3: per coin ater its latest minting date. Metal belt sets in diferent variants: 43 examples Examples: listed below with each variant. General discussion: In his monograph on belts and their metal mountings of the fourth and ith century AD in the Roman Empire, Sommer (1984, 4) presents a classiication in two series. In series 1, buckle and strap end are the outmost ends of the belt. In series 2, independent metal mountings form the outmost ends: small ribbed tubes (Astragaltüllen) and/or endplates; in that series, the buckle is mounted separately at some distance or made part of the endplate, while the strap end is mounted on a narrower elongation belt, which is riveted onto the main belt. The terminology used below is: buckle frame (the curved part of the buckle, through which the belt is led), tongue (the movable pin that goes through a hole in the belt) and plate (the metal piece riveted to the belt; it may be connected to the buckle frame by means of a hinge, or may be ixed, i.e. cast in one piece with the buckle frame). If, on the other hand, the belt is riveted back to itself, it passes around a rod. First-century soldier’s buckle: 1 example Example: OO 66.2. Discussion: The shape of the fragmentary buckle OO 66.2, which consists of a rod and a peltashaped bow, is known from irst-century fortress contexts (Bishop/Coulston 1993, 97, ig. 59,15; Bishop/Coulston 2006, 108, ig. 62). It also occurs, however, in fourth-century Spain (Sommer 1984, Pl. 14,7), so it cannot be dated with certainty. Date: I-IV. Buckle Sommer 1A with bag-shaped plate in variants a and c: 7 examples Examples: Sommer 1Aa (with round D-shaped or oval bow): B 654.2, OO 242.5, OO 283.3 (silver), OO 368.1. Sommer 1Ac (with two animal heads biting inwards on the bow): OO 373.2a (1Ac3, dolphins’ or ducks’ heads), OO 402.1 (1Ac1, lion’s head, degenerated here to ribs). Deviating: OO 29.2a with two rudimentary animals’ heads biting outwards. Discussion: Sommer (1984) discusses the buckles with bag-shaped plate on p. 18-21 and depicts them on Pl. 1, nos 1, 4 and 7. He classiies them with his chronological group 1 (Sommer 1984, 59), which he dates, for northern Gaul and the Rhine area, between AD 310 and the ities of the fourth century (Sommer 1984, 76, 79). The variant represented by OO 29.2a, with bag-shaped plate combined with two rudimentary animals’ heads on the buckle frame biting outwards, does not occur in Sommer’s group 1, and inds a parallel for the heads in Sommer’s series 2, variant 1c, dated AD 407-450. The coins found in grave OO 29 show that it indeed comes from the years in between: the latest coin is of Valentinian II (378-383). OO 29.2a is therefore to be dated to IVd. Date: Sommer 1Aa and 1Ac: AD 310-360; OO 29.2a: IVd. Buckle Sommer 1Cb, with rectangular plate and saddleshaped to oval bow: 6 examples Examples: 1Cb1 with smooth buckle frame ends: B 14.3, B 14.4, B 132.2, B 167.1, OO 271.5; 1Cb4 with richly decorated plate: OO 366.1. Discussion: Sommer (1984) discusses these buckles on p. 22-23 and depicts them on Pl. 2,6 and 372 — Pl. 3,4-6, repsectively. He classiies 1Cb1 with his chronological group 1 (Sommer 1984, 59), which he dates, for northern Gaul and the Rhine area, between AD 310 and the ities of the fourth century (Sommer 1984, 76, 79). On p. 62 he classiies 1Cb4 with his chronological group 2, dated AD 364/70-407/8 for northern Gaul and the Rhine area. Date: Sommer 1Cb1: AD 310-360; Sommer 1Cb4: AD 364-408. Buckle Sommer 2B, with open-work fence-like plate: 1 example Example: B 723.6. Discussion: Sommer (1984, 34) classiies these buckles in variants a-f, characterized by decorations; these are not present on B 723.6. He puts three of these in his chronological group 1 (Sommer 1984, 59), which he dates, for northern Gaul and the Rhine area, between AD 310 and the ifties of the fourth century (Sommer 1984, 76, 79). Date: AD 310-360. Belt set Sommer series 2, variant 1, shape c: 1 example. Example: B 61.1. Discussion: This belt set, corresponding to Ypey’s BB1 (Ypey 1969, 113-114, ig. 18), is described in detail in the ind catalogue. Ypey remarks on his distribution map (ig. 21), that his series B with loose buckle (as opposed to his series A, in which the buckle is part of the endplate) does not occur in the Danube area (cf. Sommer 1984, 110, map 7). Ypey (1969, 94) connects his type A with the campaigns against the Quadi beyond the Danube of the years 373-380, in which many Frankish soldiers from northern Gaul took part. He concludes (Ypey 1969, 114) that belts of his series B did not yet exist at the time of those campaigns and therefore date ater 375. Both his types A and B, he supposes, originated in northern Gaul and the Rhine area. Böhme 1974 (61-62, 285-286, 361; Pl. 84, 11-18) classiies this belt set with his type Vieuxville, which sometimes has three but usually two end plates with ribbed tubes (Astragalröhre) slipped onto them. On p. 155, he classiies his type Vieuxville with his phase II, c.AD 380-420. In a discussion on the problem, which Germanic groups (laeti established in the Empire or foederati crossing the border) had decisive inluence on the material culture of the Roman area north of the Loire, Böhme (1974, 205) rejects the laeti on the grounds of chronology and status, and considers among others the Nijmegen grave with this belt set that of a Roman oicer of Germanic origin. He suggests calling them foederati. In 1997, Böhme retracted this opinion: see below. Sommer (1984, 7-9) classiies belts with narrow end plates, on which ribbed tubes (Astragalröhre) have been slipped, with his series 2, variant 1, shape c, which his distribution map 7 (Sommer 1984, 110) shows to occur in northern Gaul, the Rhine area, and the north-west of Germania Libera. He does not date this series of belts as a whole (apart from the caption of his distribution map: chronological group 3); instead, he discusses buckle and strap end separately, and puts them in chronological groups, which he subsequently dates. The endplates with Astragaltüllen are, curiously enough, not further discussed. The buckle with animals’ heads biting outward (rudimentarily present on our buckle) and the short ixed plate is Sommer’s shape 3, type f, apparently variant Haillot (although the characteristic punched decoration is absent here; Sommer 1984, 39-40, 132, Pl. 17, 3-5). This kind of buckle is in his chronological group 3, which Sommer dates AD 407-450 (Sommer 1984, 65, 78-79). The strap end belongs to Sommer’s shape B, type c, variant 2 (Sommer 1984, 49-53, Pl. 21, 1-6): amphorashaped, no indication of handles, no end decoration; this is also in his chronological group 3, dated 407-450 (Sommer 1984, 65, 78-79). A more precise date for the Nijmegen belt set can be derived from the reuse of two pieces, which show cut-out (Kerbschnit) decoration on their back sides, which were invisible when the belt was worn: one of the endplates and one of the middle-sized belt stifeners. Ypey (1969, 114) remarks, that both pieces apparently were part of earlier belt sets and used as repair pieces in a time when Kerbschnit was no longer in fashion. I 373 — therefore propose to date the Nijmegen belt set to Vb. On the use of belt sets of his series 2, variant 1, Sommer’s conclusion on p. 86 is negative: it cannot be assigned to a formal uniform corresponding to an oicial Roman dress code. So it is not possible to identify it with the cingulum militiae known from ancient literature. Nevertheless, four tables of sites (e.g. Table 3 on p. 90: series 2, variant 1c) lead him to the conclusion that these belts were worn by frontier soldiers; which kind, is again impossible to say. But also barbarians wore this kind of belts: in 12 graves (=34%) with such belts barbarian atributes like comb, shears, tweezers and lint-and-steel were found; 43 graves between Elbe and Rhine, apparently of Germanic soldiers returned home ater Roman service, contain this belt set (Sommer 1984, 101, notes 108 and 114). On the place of manufacture, inally, Sommer (1984, 103) remarks that his map 7 on p. 110 shows that they were made in the provinces Germania II and Gallia II. Böhme (1997, 101) retracts his 1974 opinion: he now rejects the name of foederati, and says that ‘most such grave inds’ in northern Gaul can be explained by the presence of Germanic peoples connected with military contingents and by groups of followers of headmen from the right bank of the Rhine, which came into Roman service and were completely integrated in the imperial army. ‘So these new troups were oicial Roman soldiers known as auxilia, not independent free groups of warriors acting independently.’ Date: Vab. Belt stifeners: 3 examples Examples: B 180.4 (buterly-shaped), B 714.1 (propellor-shaped), OO 29.2ef (iron strips). Discussion: Belt stifeners, both propellor-shaped and strips, belong to Sommer’s belts of series 1, variant 3 (Sommer 1984, 5-6). Sommer gives no date, apart from a depiction on the Arch of Constantine (AD 315) and a grave in Russia (c.AD 340). Grave B 180 is a female inhumation, as appears from a bracelet and a bead, and to be dat- ed AD 316-318, as appears from two coins of the years 303-305 and 316-317. Iron belt sets like the strips OO 29.2ef are of barbaric origin, according to Sommer (1984, 101). Fingerlin (2002) discusses many propellor-shaped belt stifeners. Date: IVab. Strap ends of diferent shapes: 3 or 4 examples Examples: B 143.6?, B 320.5, OO 29.2b (Sommer shape D type a), OO 248.2. Discussion: B 143.6 (bronze sheet with 2 rivets; small tube), found at the height of the waist, may be a belt stifener and a strap end; no parallels known. B 320.5 is a bent strip of bronze with two rivets, found, together with a buckle whose plate is not preserved, in a girl’s grave, which also contained a wooden chest. OO 248.2 is a smooth lancet-shaped thin piece of bronze without rivets or holes, vaguely resembling amphora-shaped strap ends. Only OO 29.2b belongs to a well-deined type: Sommer shape D type a (Sommer 1984, 55, Pl. 23,2-3), a strap end folded from bronze sheet with a tube-shaped fold, richly decorated with niello-illed engravings. Sommer (1984, 63) puts it in his chronological group 2, dated AD 364/70-407/8 for northern Gaul and the Rhine area. The strap end was found with a large iron buckle and two iron belt stifeners, showing the grave to be Germanic (cf. Sommer 1984, 101). The latest coin in grave OO 29 is of Valentinian II (378-383). Date: IVC. Two rings against each other (belt fastening?): 2 or 4 examples Examples: B 180.7, B 320.2?, B 465.22, B 687.5?. Discussion: Three inds come from female inhumations. B 465.22 consists of a bronze and an iron ring against each other and was lying to the right of the hip. B 180.7 was lying in an unknown position and consists of a larger iron and a smaller bronze ring. These are possibly fastenings for textile belts (belt end passed through both rings and passed back between the two rings). Parallels from late antiquity are, however, unknown to me. 374 — Another possible belt fastening of this type is B 320.2: two rings in a wooden chest that contained other clothing accessories. The same may hold for the two rings B 687.5, found near the feet; they might be the fastening of a belt lying at the feet. Alternatively, these may have been rings that connected the straps of a leather belt. Date: IVa-Vb. Iron buckles: 6 examples Examples: B 140.3 (female, barbarian), B 180.5 (female), OO 29.2d (male), OO 60.2 (unknown), OO 338.1 (unknown), OO 361.5 (unknown). Discussion: Sommer (1984, 101) calls iron belt sets barbarian. This is true for female grave B 140, in which shears were also found. There are, however, no other barbarian atributes in female inhumation B 180, with coins of AD 303-5 and 316-7. The IVC belt set from grave OO 29 has been discussed above, in the section Strap ends. The large oval buckle from grave OO 60 is dated to IVAB by the presence of a beaker Symonds 61. The D-shaped buckle from grave OO 338 is accompanied by coins dated AD 330-ater 340. The buckle from OO 361 dates to IVab, as appears from the potery found with it. Date: IVabc. gether with a small iron axe (Siegmund 1999 type FBA 2.3, AD 400-440). B 54.6 is a bronze ring, which had an iron tongue before it was restored; it was lying in a niche to the let of the waist and is dated IVab by potery. B 320.3, the shape of whose plate cannot be reconstructed, was in a wooden chest in a girl’s grave and was dated IVab by potery. Bronze buckle B 465.17 with oval plate was lying to the right of the waist in the grave of a priestess dated AD 434-450. It is to be dated to mid V (M. Erdrich, pers.comm.; parallel in Rhenen grave 356, dated to VB: Böhme 1974, 39, 268, Taf. 60). B 704.10 is a fragmentary buckle, lying to the right of the head outside the coin together with seven bronze rings; the high status of this grave appears from the plank-built chamber and a wooden bucket. OO 30.4 is a bronze (buckle?) mounting: strip, ends riveted together; it is dated by potery to IVab. OO 26.6 is lost; it was a bronze buckle, to the let of the feet; the grave, containing coins from AD 260-70, is dated by IVab potery. Finally, OO 347.1 is a D-shaped buckle frame with carelessly incised decoration and an iron tongue, found in the middle of a grave otherwise without artefacts. Small rectangular bronze buckles: 2 examples Examples: OO 287.2 (to the right of the feet, in the coin), OO 371.1 (to the let of the waist). Discussion: The buckle near the right foot in OO 287 may belong to a separately deposited belt; it is dated by a Gellep 105 (IIId-IVB). The belt in OO 371 was accompanied by coins dating AD 330-341 and is therefore to be dated to IVB. There are no good parallels in Sommer (1984): those on Pls. 13-15 are clearly larger. Date: IVB. Belt pendant: 1 example Example: OO 373.2b. Discussion: No exact parallel is known to me for this folded strip-shaped strap end with dot-andcircles, one of which camoulages a rivet. Shape and decoration are reminiscent of two pendants from Liebenau grave II/230 (Böhme 1974, Pl. 29, 5-6), discussed at length by Werner (1964) as Donar amulets. It is dated by an accompanying buckle of type Sommer 1Ac3 with ducks’ heads and a Gellep 109 dated IVab. Date: AD 310-360. Remaining buckles: 9 examples Examples: B 54.6, B 143.5, B 180.6, B 320.3, B 465.17, B 704.10, OO 26.6, OO 30.4, OO 347.1. Discussion: B 143.5 is a D-shaped buckle of which no plate is preserved; it was lying to the right of the waist outside the coin in a boy’s grave to- Iron knives: 17 examples Examples: B 59.8, B 140.1, B 143.7, B 180.10?, B 465.20, B 481.4, B 659.1, B 687.4, OO 101.9, OO 101.10, OO 144.9, OO 200.9, OO 271.6, OO 290.8, OO 366.2, OO 433.4, OO 478.5. Discussion: Pirling (1966, 123-4) lists iteen iron 375 — knives from Gellep (three in male, three in female burials, the rest not to be determined), most of them with short and wide triangular blades, to be considered miniature models of butchers’ knives or sacriicial knives. She dates them throughout IV. Pirling (1974, 91) adds nine new examples (one in a male, one in a female burial). Again, triangular blades are predominant, with long handles, she now adds. She dates three knives to IVB, and one to IVcd. Pirling (1979, 67-8) has two new knives, one dated IVab, one IVB. Böhme (1974, 128-30) mentions many diferent types of iron knives between Elbe and Loire. The Nijmegen types with lancet-shaped blades occur mainly in northwest Germany and northern France (the later in female burials). The distribution according to gender in Nijmegen is: three male burials (B 143, OO 271, OO 366), four female (B 59, B 140, B 465, B 180), eight not to be determined. It is diicult to recognize a patern in the positions of the iron knives in the Nijmegen graves. Two were lying near the let hand: B 465.20 (priestess), B 687.4. Near the upper legs: OO 366.2. In the middle of the grave: OO 433.4. In the foot end: B 481.4, OO 271.6 (male). Apart from other inds in a cremation: B 140.1. To the right outside the coin: B 143.7. In a niche: OO 101.9 (at the hight of the waist, not known right or let, in a terra sigillata bowl which also contained bone remains). To the let of the head: OO 290.8. In an unknown position: B 659.1, B 59.8, B 180.10, OO 478.5. The patern seems to be: hanging from a belt or with a burial meal. The shapes of the knives are as follows. All blades end in a point; 16 out of 17 have two convex sides, asymmetrical in four cases, symmetrical in eight (and one unknown: B 180.10 possibly is the point of a blade). They cluster in three widths: wide, medium and narrow. A wide blade (ratio length:width = 1.9-2.4) have OO 290.8, OO 271.6, OO 433.4 and B 687.4. A medium blade (ratio l:w = 2.8-3.1) have B 481.4, B 143.7, B 659.1 and OO 366.2. A narrow blade (ratio length:width = 3.8-4.6) have B 140.1, B 59.8, B 465.20 and OO 101.9. OO 478.5 has a completely diferent shape, with a convex cuting edge and a concave back. No correlation can be found between position in the grave, (a)symmetry and width of blade. The question whether the four forms served diferent purposes must remain open. Date: IVa-Vb. Shoes: 14 examples (sometimes more than one ind number per grave) Examples: B 59.11 (sole), B 59.12 (sole), B 183.7 (hobnailed sole), B 198.3 (hobnailed sole), B 316.1 (sole), OO 3.1 (c.30 hobnails), OO 63.5 (hobnails), OO 206.1 (c.40 strips of 3-5 heads of hobnails), OO 207.14 (hobnails), OO 283.5 (hobnails), OO 290.9a (leather remains) and 9b (hobnails), OO 323.1, OO 339.9, OO 371.5 (leather remains near the let foot), OO 382.9 (leather remains with small iron hobnails). Discussion: In the fourth century, shoes with hobnails form a minority, so the absence of hobnails does not necessarily imply absence of shoes (Dr C. van Driel-Murray, pers. comm.). One male burial (OO 283) and ive female ones (B 59, B 198, OO 217, OO 339, OO 382) have shoes; the gender in the eight other graves could not be determined. During the excavations, the patern of the hobnails was never ixed by means of plaster or synthetic material. The pattern has been preserved in B 316.1: according to Groenman-Van Waateringe a marginal row along the entire sole, under the forefoot a second marginal row, a lozenge and three straight rows, under the heel two long rows and a short one. The positions in which the shoe remains were found are as follows. We do not know it in four cases (B 198.3, OO 3.1, OO 206.1, OO 283.5). The deceased may have had the shoes on in two cases, although both are uncertain: B 183.7 (near the feet, in the coin) and B 59.11 and 10 (B 59.11 near let foot, B 59.12 near right foot). In two cases they were lying between the feet (OO 207.14 and OO 290.9a-b). In one case there were leather remains near the let foot (OO 371.5). In the last three cases the shoes were not near the 376 — feet: in or on a wooden chest (OO 339.9), in a large coarse pot Gellep 105 (OO 63.5) and under the coin (B 316.1). So we know that the deceased did not have his shoes on in ive out of eight known cases, and it may be six out of seven. Philpot (1991, 167) remarks that in Britannia there are few graves with hobnails in the civitas capitals and many in the country, where apparently the rite concerned occurred more oten. Further, that it appears from a large series of inhumations in Lankhills in the period AD 310410, that the shoes were not put near the feet in the beginning of IV, and that they were usually worn or put near the feet later on. On p. 173 he remarks that some have interpreted the presence of shoes that were not worn by the deceased as an expression of the belief that the deceased needed the shoes in the hereater, probably even for the journey to the underworld (Cf. Driel-Murray 1999, 2001 and 2002). Philpot himself prefers the idea that the grave was seen as a room the deceased lived in. Date: IVab. Decorative nails and rivets: 9 examples Examples: B 198.2 (two bronze rivets), B 364.2 (bronze decorative nail), B 496.1 (bronze rivet), OO 9.17 (bronze decorative nail), OO 144.10 (iron rivet with Medusa head), OO 168.12 (bronze split pin), OO 207.13 (small bronze rivet with shat), OO 302.2 (bronze rivet). Discussion: There is considerable variation in decorative nails and rivets not associated with wooden chests: iron nails about which nothing is known (OO 339.9); simple decorative bronze nails with lat-convex head (B 496.1) or convexconcave head (OO 9.17); a bronze rivet with hollow proiled plate and square shat (OO 302.2); a bronze ring with a split pin on it (OO 168.12, function unknown). Of three decorated nails, B 364.2 has a round proiled head and a square shat, and the other two have a lat head with igurative decoration in a diferent metal. The bronze OO 207.13 with gold foil on it has a rosete within a proiled rim. The iron OO 144.2 has a bronze plate with raised rim and in the centre a Medusa head with globules to represent the hair (there is also a Medusa head on wooden chest in B 701). Date: IVAB. Unique pieces Bronze heart-shaped pendant: 1 example Example: OO 19.2. Discussion: The pendant, w 5.7, h 5.3 cm, with a proiled knob at its lower end and at its top a suspension strip that curves back to a hole in the middle where it forms a fastening by means of a rivet with curled end. This is a piece of horse gear. Pendants of this type occur on the same terrain of the Hunerberg in Flavian pits in the canabae (cf. e.g. Bishop/Coulston 1993, 106, ig. 65,2). It must be remarked that this grave only contained unique pieces: a crucible-shaped beaker further unknown in Nijmegen but present in Gellep (Gellep 496); and a small lead disk, possibly a spindle-whorl. So the pendant may have been put intentionally in the grave rather than being intrusive in the illing. Date: IC. Bronze basin: 1 example Small hemispherical basin with rounded base, h 4.3-4.7; d 15.5. The rim is thickened and rounded on the inside of the vessel. The basin has concentric grooves from spinning on the lathe inside and out. Only the inside of the vessel is tinned. Soldered on the outside, 1.5 cm below the rim, is a lozenge-shaped escutcheon with an eye on the top, on which a ring ( 2) is hanging. Example: B 181.4. Discussion: Photograph by J. Cloosterman, 21 March 1978; Daalen et al. 2005, 31) in the right hand of its inder J.R.A.M. Thijssen. A silver bowl of about the same shape and dimensions occurs in Gellep grave 932 (Pirling 1966, catalogue 112 and Pl. 77, 2ab). Pirling (1966, 127) suggests it was meant for cult use. Pirling (1974, 80) mentions a bronze plate, fashioned from the base of 377 — a larger vessel and dates it IVB. The other inds in B 181 date that grave to IVAB. Barate et al. (1984, 119-122, with further literature) publishes a silvered pewter basin of similar form and somewhat larger dimensions in Chalon-sur-Saône, bearing a Christian inscription, and points out the popularity of the shape in potery, glass and metal in IV and Va. Decorations on the shape may be pagan, secular or Christian, and a secular use of the Chalon basin, despite its Christian inscription, is quite possible. Date: IVAB. Stone spindle whorl: 1 example, lost Example: B stray 255. Discussion: No data. Cameo: 1 example Example: B stray 144. Discussion: Female head with diadem. Daniëls (1955, 252) refers to Verslag 1922, 10, no. 34c. No further data. Lamps: 3 examples Examples: B stray 55, B stray 241, OO stray 38. Discussion: B stray 55 is a lamp with two spouts and one handle of white potery with a brownish black coating, h 5, w 7. Cf. Menzel 1969, nos. 485-7. B stray 241 is a lamp Loeschcke IV with volutes on the sides of the spout. Anchor and dolphins on its mirror could be interpreted in a Christian sense, but this is improbable. OO stray 38 is an open lamp Loeschcke XIB, dated by to I-III. Pirling/Siepen (2006, 407-8) mentions ive such lamps from Gellep, dated to II. They were used to burn tallow or wax. Lead lamp: 1 example Example: B stray 259. Discussion: Lead open lamp. No further data. Bronze statuete: 1 example Statuete of Hercules mingens Example: OO stray 46 Discussion: The statuete was published in Zadoks/Peters/Witeveen 1973, 10, no. 10. Organic Wooden plank: 2 examples Example: B 410.4, B 829.2. Discussion: No data. Textile remains: 15 examples (plus textile handbag B 185.4 treated above) Examples: on B 61.2, on B 162.1, B 185.3, many scraps in B 465 and B 620, OO 26.9, OO 29.11, OO 242.8, OO 250.20 (not analysed), OO 271.10 (on buckle), OO 362.7, OO 366.3, OO 366.4 (on knife), OO 371.5, OO 400.5, OO 402.2, OO 433.5. Discussion: The condition of the textiles is poor. The fragments are very britle and are semi-carbonized. The objects are of interest because they represent various types of weaves and give an indication of the type of textile technology to be found in the region at this time. There is no indication that these textiles were imported pieces (type of ibre, spin, weave, and so forth). Based on the inds from other contemporary and near-contemporary Roman sites, it is clear that these pieces are representative parts of the textile horizon of this area and date. The oldest ind, B 620 (the sarcophagus of the Grutberg), was studied at the ROB in the sixties, most probably by J. Ypey. That description comes irst. Three have been studied by G.M. Vogelsang-Eastwood; her report follows ater that on B 620. The other ones have not been studied. B 620 One textile remain clings to bracelet B 620.7, three to bracelet B 620.9, called here B 620.9a-c; one to tutulus ibula B 620.14; one to a bronze sheet band of one of the tambourine sticks B 620.15. B 620.7: Fibre: vegetable (lax?). Size: not noted down; very small. Spin: z/z. Twist: not noted down. Count: c.16 in the presumed warp, c.11 in the presumed wet. Weave: tabby. Use: no indication. B 620.9a: Fibre: unknown. Size: not noted down; very small. Spin: z/z? Twist: not noted down. 378 — Count: c.20 in the presumed warp, c.25 in the presumed wet. Weave: tabby. Use: no indication. B 620.9bc: Presumably the same length of cloth. Fibre: unknown. Size: not noted down, very small. Spin: z/z. Twist: not noted down. Count: c.11 in the presumed warp, c.13 in the presumed wet. Weave: tabby. Use: no indication. B 620.14: Three layers of presumably the same length of cloth. Fibre: vegetable, presumably lax. Size: not noted down, very small. Spin: s/s. Twist: unknown. Count: c.24 in the presumed warp, 26-30 in the presumed wet; one of the fragments has c.16 thicker threads in the presumed warp, c.24 iner threads in the presumed wet. Weave: tabby; one of the fragments shows doubling of the presumed warp and was presumably part of the selvedge. Use: no indication. B 620.15: Fibre: unknown. Size: not noted down, very small. Spin: s/s. Twist: not noted down. Count: c.10 in the presumed warp, c.8 in the presumed wet. Weave: tabby. Use: no indication. B 185.3 The only facts noted down are as follows. Size: pieces of 0.4-0.6 cm. Weave: twill. OO 366.3 The ind is made up of two textiles, the irst textile (a) is a large fragment made up of several layers of cloth. The second textile (b) is somewhat smaller and was apparently resting on the irst piece. It would appear that they are from the same length of cloth. The cloth is now carbonized. There are areas of green on the material which would appear to be a copper deposit from another object, rather than indicating the use of a dye or pigment. Fibre: animal?. Size: (a) 7.7 x 3.5 (b) 3.8 x 2.3 cm. Spin: z/z (some paired threads, this may relect a weaving fault rather than the deliberate use of paired threads). Twist: medium/medium. Count: 24 in the presumed warp; 16 in the presumed wet. Weave: 1/2 twill (it should be noted that no selvedges are present so it is not clear whether it is actually a 1/2 or a 2/1 twill. Nevertheless, the presence of plied threads in one direction indicates that this was the wet, and thus a 1/2 twill form. In one area of the web there is evidence of the use of thicker thread (S,3?z) which appears to turn back on itself. However, due to the poor condition of the cloth at this point, this detail is not clear. Use: There is no indication of how this cloth may have originally been used. OO 366.4 This ind is made up of a single textile which is now a light brown in colour. There is no indication of any colour or decoration. The size of the object makes it very diicult to draw any conclusions about the nature of this ind. Fibre: animal? Size: 2.0 x 1.8 cm. Spin: z/z. Twist: loose. Count: c.12 in the presumed warp; 22 in the presumed wet. Weave: wet(?)-faced tabby weave. Use: There is no indication of how this cloth may have originally been used. Animal bones, not on plates: 2 examples Examples: B 182.9 (two bones, chicken?), B 497. intr. (bone frgms, cow?); B 497.intr. (sheep/goat). Discussion: B 182 is a cremation grave, in which there is a demonstrable earlier intrusion: B 182. intr. is a wall fragment of a irst-century Belgian beaker. The animal bones B 182.9 may therefore be an intrusion as well. The bones in B 497 were in unknown position, so probably they too are an intrusion in the illing of the grave. Cow’s molar: 3 examples Examples: B 504.intr., B 505.1, OO 319.2. Discussion: The only interpretation in ancient literature of teeth as amulets is found in Pliny NH 28, 257/8 and Julian Or. 7, 206. They tell that teeth of horse and wolf were used as an amulet for small children in order to alleviate the eruption of their teeth (RAC sv Amulet A VII). This seems a strange meaning for an amulet in a grave. Moreover, grave B 505 measures 200 cm, B 504 155 cm. Their interpretation must remain open, if they are not intrusions. Deteriorated organic remains: 2 examples Examples: OO 242.5a, OO 373.2. Discussion: OO 242.5a is made up of four larger and several small lumps of carbonized organic 379 — material. On one piece there are traces of what appears to be a weave, but under a microscope, it would appear that it is an organic material which has deteriorated in narrow strips (leather?). Leather remains: 4 examples Examples: OO 12.12, OO 271.9, OO 366.1a, OO 381.1?. Discussion: No data. Shapeless metal Shapeless lead: 8 examples Examples: OO 19.3 (small lat round lead disk), OO 122.2 (lead, no data), OO 195.5 (lead, lat piece), OO 223.2 (puddle of lead), OO 249.4 (folded lead strip), OO 249.5 (strip), OO 271.8+11 (fragments of lead sheet), OO 359.1 (drop of lead). Discussion: All lead was found in cemetery Nijmegen-East (OO). The puddle of lead OO 223.1 (outside the coin, to the let of the head) and the drop of lead OO 359.1 (to the let of the head, no trace of a coin), if they are not simply intrusions, suggest that lead was molten during both inhumation ceremonies, but the reason remains unknown. Disk OO 19.3, d 2.4, th 0.2, may have had a central hole: spindle whorl or amulet? OO 122.2 was outside the coin, to the right of the head, but its shape and function are unknown. The torn piece of lead OO 195.5 was lying on the middle of the upper body and may have been put there intentionally. OO 223.1 (outside the coin) and 2 (on the waist) were folded pieces of lead sheet. They were folded open in the laboratory of Museum Het Valkhof in order to look for graiti. There were none; hammer traces are visible. That lead may be intrusive in the (top) illing of the graves is proven by OO 249.5, where it is wrapped around the lint of a modern rile or pistol. For the ancient use of lead, cf. Der Neue Pauly s.v. Deixio. The special use of lead for curse tablets, sometimes put into graves with the implicit request to the deceased to hand them to the underworld deities (Gager 1992), was reason for opening the folded lead sheet OO 223.1-2; there was no text. A rolled strip of lead with punched text and symbols, reportedly found in a Marienburg grave in 1998 and depicted in Van Enckevort et al. (2002a, 106: drawing; 2002b, 24: photographs) is called a curse tablet there. It turned out to be a forgery, ater the present author had writen an unpublished paper in 2002 to voice his mistrust of this and other christograms reportedly found in and near Nijmegen in the years 1995-1999 (Toebosch 2005, Horssen 2006). All the others appeared to be forgeries as well (Holleman 2000 presents them as genuine inds in a Dutch newspaper; Meijers et al. 2005 technically proves them to be forgeries; Horssen 2006 combines the arguments of the present author with the scientiic proof). Shapeless bronze: 27 examples Examples: B 139.3 (bronze remains), B 143.6 (bronze sheet with 2 rivets; small tube), B 180. coin (two irregular strips of bronze), B 196.8 (pieces of bronze sheet), B 198.4 (tube: spring tube of a ibula?), B 205.intr. (bronze slag), B 256. intr. (folded strip of bronze sheet), B 312.1 (bronze wire), B 320.4 (bronze sheet with rivet), B 320.6 (piece of proiled bronze wire or bracelet, bent out of shape), B 486.1 (piece of bronze), B 620.20 (bronze knob), B 706.5 (small bronze tube in a split pin), B 778.9 (bronze tube, possibly a bead), OO 9.16 (bronze plate, no data), OO 49.2, OO 101.12 (scrap of bronze mounting), OO 107.1 (shapeless piece of bronze sheet), OO 144.11 (curved lid or corner reinforcement of bronze sheet), OO 144.14 (drop of bronze), OO 176.14 (fragment of bronze), OO 208.1 (piece of bronze), OO 229.1, OO 247.1 (scrap of bronze sheet), OO 366.5, OO 404.1 (shapeless piece of bronze), OO 473.6 (bronze sheet folded double). Discussion: Further comment is relevant for the following. B 143.6 (bronze sheet with 2 rivets; small tube), found at the height of the waist, may be a belt stifener and a strap end. B 620.20 is a knob found at the neck of the young girl in 380 — the sarcophagus of the Grutberg. B 320.4 was in a wooden chest with a strap end: a clothing accessory? B 320.6 is a piece of bronze wire, possibly a bracelet. The mysterious small tube B 706.5 in a split pin was the only metal object in a niche and had been put there intentionally. The tube B 778.9 was lying in a botle together with beads and pendants and probably is a bead. B 180.coin are mountings for a wooden object. OO 144.11, a curved lid or corner reinforcement of bronze sheet, is, apart from the sapropelite box discussed above, the only indication we have for a round box of perishable material. Shapeless iron: 13 examples Examples: B 465.12 (two halves of a bent iron rod with textile bands around it in two places), B 465.21 (bent iron rod), B 741.7, OO 71.4 (lat disk d 7.0), OO 88.5, OO 90.2, OO 94.3, OO 223.1, OO 250.16, OO 271.12, OO 283.6-8, OO 307.1, OO 339.13, OO 352.1 (link?), OO 415.2, OO 428.1, OO 469.3 (scrap of iron sheet). Discussion: Further comment is only necessary for the following. In the case of B 465.12 and B 465.21 one should take into account that this grave with its many unique pieces has been identiied as that of a priestess. The two iron objects may be part of her pontiicals, but cannot be identiied with certainty. B 465.21 might be the broken-of bend of bent rod B 465.12, which was kept in a bent position by textile bands wrapped around it in two places. The symbolic meaning might be: sot powers overcome hard power. The breaking-of must have taken place when the textile bands were already being mineralized. OO 311.7 possibly is a bracelet. OO 415.2 is an iron object, bent and with a square nail hole, found on or above the lower body of a person who wore a crossbow ibula on the right shoulder. 13 Typology of the graves Niches: a minimum of 137 graves and a maximum of 146 had a niche (9 graves uncertain), 8 of which, all in cemetery B, certainly with an empty one, indicated below with (e). Italics: graves with certain orientation and one niche with certain relation to the body; these data have been used in drawing up Tables 15 and 16. The details of each grave may be looked up in the ind catalogue in Chapters 5 and 6; the age and gender of the deceased (wherever known), in Chapter 7. Examples: 92 graves with one niche, on the N: B 7 (e), B 13, B 67, B 85, B 86, B 150, B 151, B 176, B 177, B 186, B 189, B 191, B 207, B 211, B 216, B 217, B 218, B 219, B 221, B 234, B 241, B 248, B 292, B 319, B 381, B 383, B 387, B 395, B 410, B 421, B 423, B 435, B 451, B 470, B 471, B 564 (e), B 619 (e), B 643 (e), B 676, B 681, B 686, B 687, B 701, B 702, B 705, B 706, B 726, B 728, B 734, B 742, B 746 (e), B 760, B 764, B 766, B 803, B 809, B 812, B 818, B 820, OO 13, OO 20, OO 22, OO 30, OO 44, OO 99 (e?), OO 102, OO 135, OO 161, OO 164, OO 181, OO 196, OO 200, OO 248, OO 287, OO 316, OO 317, OO 319, OO 322, OO 340, OO 349, OO 351, OO 354, OO 356, OO 361, OO 362, OO 382, OO 383, OO 395 (e?), OO 400, OO 413, OO 440 (e?), OO 472; 30 graves with one niche, on the S: B 54, B 69 (e), B 122, B 181, B 512, B 581 (e), B 677, B 741, B 743, B 763, B 810, B 814, B 815, B 821, B 827, OO 26, OO 37, OO 59, OO 78, OO 98, OO 101, OO 106, OO 143 (e?), OO 152, OO 153, OO 176, OO 232, OO 250, OO 290, OO 473; 4 graves with one niche, on the W: B 708, OO 19, OO 109, OO 186; 3 graves with one niche, on the E: B 183, B 236, OO 348; 5 graves with two niches: B 723 (2xN), B 819 (1 N, 1 S, one empty), OO 144 (1 N, 1 S), OO 243 (2xN, one empty?), OO 323 (1 N, 1 S, both empty?); 3 graves where the niche was the only part of the grave found and its orientation therefore unknown: B 817, OO 168, OO 188; 9 graves where the presence of a niche is uncertain: B 184, B 358, B 566, B 805, OO 162, OO 278, OO 393, OO 447, OO 482. Discussion: A niche is a hole dug horizontally from the side of the grave trench. It usually is some 50 cm higher than the loor of the grave (varying from 10 cm lower than the grave loor up to 88 cm above it). Many Nijmegen niches seem to be level with the grave loor; seem, because they are not well documented. Most niches contained grave goods, i.e. drinks and/or meals. An old article on niches in Late Roman inhumation graves is Haberey (1934). He reports that many niches in the Severinstraße Late Roman cemetery in Cologne were subdivided by wooden planks into diferent levels (not a trace of that custom in Nijmegen); that 31 out of 210 graves had niches (i.e. 15%; the percentage in Nijmegen is 10-11%); that they usually measure some 40x50 cm (25x35 up to 70x70); that they were also found in Cologne graves in clay and in gravel soils; and that their distribution area includes Worms, Ehrang and Bregenz. We may conclude that this area is the Roman northwest on the continent. Haberey considers graves with niches to be miniature chamber tombs. There is a striking diference here between Cologne and Nijmegen on the one hand and Gellep on the other. In Nijmegen, 137 out of 1323 graves have niches, i.e. 10.3%; at the time of Haberey’s article, Cologne had 15%. In Gellep, no more than 39 graves out of 1258 inhumations had niches, i.e. 3.1% (Pirling/Siepen (2006, 13-4). The ratio behind the Nijmegen niches comes out best when they are sorted according to three criteria: 1. is the head of the deceased to the east (an E-W grave) or to the west (a W-E grave)?; 2. is the niche to the let or the right of the body?; 3. at the height of which body part is the niche? Table 15 shows, e.g., that the niche is to the right of the head in 17 E-W graves, i.e. in 28% of the total of 61 E-W graves with one niche each; and that one E-W grave, i.e. 2%, has a niche to the let of the head. Tables 15 and 16 show that the preferred side of the grave is the north (81% in E-W graves, 70% in W-E graves). This means that the niches were mostly made where the gravedigger could see what he was doing, the daylight falling in from the south; and that the 381 — 382 — Table 15: Positions of niches in relation to the body in E-W graves with one niche each (N=61) N = right W 3x 1x 2x 2x 11x 9x 4x 17x 5% 2% 3% 3% 18% 15% 7% 28% feet shins legs thighs waist torso shoulders head 1x - 2x - 4x 3x - 1x 2% - 3% - 7% 5% - 2% E S = let Table 16: Positions of niches in relation to the body in W-E graves with one niche each (N=13) N = let W - - - 4x 1x 1x - 3x - - - 31% 8% 8% - 23% head shoulders torso waist thighs legs shins feet 1x - - - - 2x - 1x 8% - - - - 15% - 8% E S = right position to the right or let of the deceased was less important. As to the dates, no Nijmegen niche is later than AD 367 or more probably AD 355: they all fall within the irst potery period, deined in Chapter 14. This irst potery period is characterized by abundance, and the niches were meant to stow away this abundance. The second potery period is characterized by scarcity, so niches were no longer needed.

Discussion: Nails with square shat and latish head occur so oten that their presence was taken for granted by the excavators. They were generally not counted by the excavators, but 32 graves got the remark ‘no nails’. This is surprising, as 407 out of 834 graves in cemetery B contained nails, i.e. 49%, and 221 out of 489 graves in cemetery OO, i.e. 45%. What was considered the normal amount of nails appears from remarks on deviations, mentioned above in parentheses: six times 1 nail, twice 2, once ‘some’, twice ‘many’, once 38): the unconscious norm is an unspeciied number between 2 and ‘many’; 38 is clearly noted as an exceptional case. Ater having excavated 190 graves in cemetery OO, the excavators decided to study the number and positions of the nails in the remaining graves and started, from trench 211 in 1981, making excavation drawings with special atention to nails. Counts on these drawings and bar diagrams (not shown here) of these counts show two main and two sub-groups. Main group 1: twenty-ive graves have 1-11 nails, the mean in that group being 2-6. Main group 2: eleven graves have 13-17 nails, with a mean of 13. Subgroup 1: two graves with 19-20 nails. Sub-group 2: two graves with 23-24 nails. In many cases, the presence of nails is the only indication of a coin. The remark ‘no trace of coin, but nails are present’ occurs 28 times out of 162 graves without coin trace. The models of the coins reconstructed from the nail paterns are discussed in the next paragraph but one. Remaining iron parts of coins: 7 examples Examples: B 138.1 (iron mountings), B 670.coin (large nail), OO 273.4 (iron mounting strip), OO 273.5 (nail with square shat, l 7.5), OO 278.1 (long iron nail), OO 305.1 (two iron cramps). Discussion: There are two enormous nails: B 670. coin and OO 278.1 OO 278.1 resembles a ship’s nail in the Romano-Celtic shipbuilding tradition: bent twice into the model of the hooked nail (Marsden 1994, 13 ig. 3). Could part of a ship have been in grave OO 278? At Oosterbeintum in Frisia and on many places in Scandinavia, ship’s nails were found in early medieval cremations: parts of demolished ships were apparently used in pyres there (Oosterbeintum graves 335, 393, 433: Knol et al. 1996, 44; Scandinavia: pers. comm. Dr R. Bockius). This possibility can safely be excluded for inhumation grave OO 278 with its clear coin trace. The only possibility remaining is that someone familiar with shipbuilding made this coin: no surprise in a city on a river. Coins: 864 examples by P.A.M. Zoetbrood General discussion: In 583 graves of cemetery B and in 281 of cemetery OO, coins were recognized. The following text on coin types focuses 384 — on cemetery OO, where in 136 graves the coin construction has been studied (see Chapter 2, Introduction to cemetery Nijmegen-East (cemetery OO), section Ways of excavating). Although the wood of the coins had completely decayed, apart from very few fragments near iron objects, a clear outline could be recognized in most cases. The presence of nails, in most cases in clear relation to coin traces, airmed the use of coins. In the other graves of cemetery OO there is not a trace of a coin, be it discoloration or nails. Relation to the grave. Generally, the grave is not much larger than the space needed for the cofin. In 82% of the graves originally recognized, the trench was 10-70 cm longer than the coin. Also 82% of the graves originally recognized have a width between 20 and 75 cm more than that of the coin. In almost all graves, the coin, if any, was placed in the middle of the grave, also in the larger graves. In six graves only, the coin was put against the long side of the grave (OO 148: in N half; OO 57: against SE side; OO 90: against the N side; OO 288: against the E side). It appears that the grave diggers sometimes did not know the size of the coin to be expected: a sign that grave digging was a cratsman’s work. Graves without a trace of a coin were smaller and shallower than those with coin. Shape. The information in 64 graves was too incomplete to determine the shape of the coin. Most of these were incompletely excavated or disturbed. Some of those 64 did have nails. For 266 graves two coin shapes can be distinguished: rectangular (75%) and tapering (6%); 18% had no trace of a coin. In seven graves, there were clear coin traces but no nails (OO 36, OO 100, OO 130, OO 306, OO 310, OO 311, OO 418). A relation between the shape of the grave and that of the coin could not be established. Length, width, height: Table 17 puts the data of length and width together. Table 17: Lengths and widths of coins in cemetery OO Length (N=193) Width (N=214) Domain 56-240 cm 33-55 cm Most are between 160-220 cm - Peak between 180-210 cm 40-50 cm There is of course a relation between length and width of the coins. Coins shorter than 160 cm usually have a width under 45 cm and mostly near 30 cm. In the majority of the coins, the length of 160/165 up to 220 cm corresponds to a width between 40 and 55 cm. As against length and width of coins, which can be measured fairly precisely from the discolorations caused by the perished wood, the original height of the coins cannot be taken with any conidence. The remaining heights of the discolorations lies between 5 and 55 cm. Construction. There were traces of wooden coins in 281 graves of cemetery OO. The wood itself has perished completely, apart from fragments in direct contact with metal objects. As a rule, a fairly clear outline was recognized. In the majority iron nails were found, varying from a few up to dozens, found in clear relation to the line of the coin. As opposed to the discolorations, their positions do give some information about the construction of the coins. Firstly we must conclude that wood junctions were used, as we have coin traces without any nail (OO 100, OO 125, OO 229, OO 288, OO 306, OO 311, OO 379, OO 418). In a number of graves, no nails were used for sides and botom, but some were found at a higher altitude: for the lid? (at both ends: OO 75 and OO 277; at one end: OO 275, OO 309 and OO 312). The small number of nails in many graves shows that there too wood junctions must have been used, and nails only where needed. Only in the graves with excavation numbers 192327 (see Appendix 1b for their numbers in the present catalogue), the positions of the nails 385 — were noted in three dimensions. Only for 50 of these graves ive types of junctions (types 1-5) between botom and sides can be distinguished; the other 86 graves contained no coin traces or no nails, or did not permit a reconstruction even though both were present. For the other graves, with excavation numbers 1-189 and 901-919, there is no certainty, as the altitude of the nails is unknown. Still, paterns can be recognized in the distribution of the nails, which either suggest or exclude that a grave belongs to the ive types of construction: the uncertain examples treated with each type. Coin type 1: 19 examples + 8 uncertain ones Examples: OO 24, OO 74, OO 128, OO 132, OO 156, OO 186, OO 196, OO 216, OO 222, OO 223, OO 240, OO 241, OO 242, OO 246, OO 274, OO 279, OO 335, OO 341, OO 360. Uncertain examples: OO 3, OO 5, OO 96, OO 101, OO 255, OO 314, OO 345, OO 400. Discussion: Coins whose sides are nailed against the botom board with single nails in the long sides roughly opposite each other. In a majority of these cases, the corner is formed by nailing the long sides to the end side of the short side boards. In some cases, also the short side board is nailed against the botom board. Oblique horizontal nails in corners are a slipshod (sometimes extra) way of joining long and short sides. No vertical nails were found in the lower half of the grave. Discussion of the uncertain examples: The single nails in the long sides are roughly opposite each other; nails in the short sides also in the cases of OO 3, OO 5, OO 101, and OO 314. This group looks like coin type 1, but it does not contain coins where nails were found at all corners. Anyway, they do not belong to types 2-5. Coin type 2: 14 examples + 13 uncertain ones Examples: OO 72, OO 122, OO 164, OO 194, OO 232, OO 243, OO 244, OO 248, OO 278, OO 283, OO 287, OO 340, OO 363, OO 387. Uncertain examples: OO 4, OO 31, OO 325, OO 326, OO 333, OO 346, OO 349, OO 371, OO 381, OO Table 18: Certain coins of type 1 Long Short Oblique against against horizontal short botom in corner OO 24 2 sides 2 sides - OO 74 2 sides - x OO 128 - - - OO 132 1 side - - OO 156 - - - OO 186 1 side 1 side - OO 196 - - x OO 216 - - - OO 222 - 1 side - OO 223 2 sides 2 sides x OO 240 - - - OO 241 1 side - x OO 242 2 sides - x OO 246 2 sides 1 side x OO 274 - - - OO 279 2 sides - x OO 335 2 sides - x OO 341 2 sides - - OO 360 2 sides - - 383, OO 401, OO 423, OO 434. Discussion: Coins whose long sides are nailed against the botom board in one, two or three pairs opposite each other. This distribution in pairs suggests that the botom board was carried by clamps. In cemetery OO, there is no certain evidence for such clamps, but graves B 318, B 331, B 481, B 595 and possibly B 397 do have them. Like in group 1, in a majority the corner is formed by nailing the long sides to the end side of the short side boards. In some cases, also the short side board is nailed against the botom 386 — Table 19: Certain coins of type 2 Long Short Oblique against against horizontal short botom in corner OO 72 2 sides - - OO 164 2 sides - x OO 194 - - - OO 244 2 sides - - OO 278 2 sides - - OO 287 - 1 side x OO 122 2 sides - x?

No vertical nails were found in the lower half of the grave. Discussion of the uncertain examples: Nails in four corners and one, two or three pairs of nails in the long sides; nails in the short sides hardly occur: one pair in OO 4, OO 31, OO 326, OO 333, OO 346, OO 371, OO 383, and OO 401; two pairs in OO 349, OO 381, and OO 423; three pairs in OO 325 and OO 434. OO 326 and OO 346 have one nail in a short side each. This group of coins looks like type 2 and anyway not like types 1 or 3-5. But, as the altitude of the nails is not known, the ‘pairs’ may not be pairs at all. Coin type 3: 9 examples + 8 uncertain ones Examples: OO 89, OO 90, OO 94, OO 112, OO 161, OO 210, OO 338, OO 361, OO 362. Uncertain examples: OO 26, OO 53, OO 98, OO 104, OO 107, OO 208, OO 318, OO 347. Discussion: Coins whose botom board is nailed onto longitudinal beams from the top down. Vertical nails with their points down show that the botom board is nailed onto the beams on both sides and sometimes also in between. In the majority of these coins, the long sides are nailed against the beam and/or the beams; in half the cases, the short side is also nailed against botom board or beam. In one case only the long side is nailed in the corner against the short one. Discussion of the uncertain examples: Nails are found in the four corners and in the long sides. Nails in the short sides hardly occur; a nail in a short side at OO 26, OO 53, and OO 104. This group cannot belong to types 2-5; similarity to type 1 is possible only if no corner nails were used near the botom board. Coin type 4: 6 examples + 7 uncertain ones Examples: OO 71, OO 231, OO 249, OO 272, OO 339, OO 386. Uncertain examples: OO 30, OO 58, OO 63, OO 102, OO 148, OO 153, OO 198. Discussion: Coins whose botom board is nailed from below onto the long and short sides: vertical nails pointing upwards. In this group of six coins there are two pairs of similar construction: OO 272 and OO 249 as against OO 339 and OO 386. The outline of the coin of OO 231 is uncertain, but there are four nails pointing upwards. OO 71 has two such nails. Discussion of the uncertain examples: Only in the four corners there were nails that joined the long sides against the short ones. Coin type 5: 2 examples Examples: OO 131, OO 280. Discussion: Two small coins have one nail pointing upwards in each corner. 387 — Table 20: Certain coins of type 3 Table 21: Certain coins of type 4 Long Short Long Oblique Long Short Long Oblique against against against horizontal against against against horizontal short botom botom- in corner short botom botom- in corner beam beam OO 89 - x x - OO 71 - - - x?

(limestone fragment 16x10x4.5 with ridge), B 699.0 (slate-stone slab), B 701.7, B 702.7, OO 186.8, OO 232.4. Discussion: It should be remarked that stone, apart from the ine layers of gravel in the icepushed ridge, does not naturally occur in or near Nijmegen, so all stone was brought here by man. B 48.2, B 43.2, B 395.4-5, B 701.7 and B 702.7 are lat pieces of stone that covered potery vessels (to the existence of B 43.2 has been concluded because beaker B 43.1 was empty; it was not noticed for itself). B 421.2 is a lat piece of stone that was lying next to cooking-pot B 421.1, which it had apparently covered originally. In grave B 94 a ield stone together with two tile fragments covered all grave goods. B 402.5 was a ‘rather large oblong piece of stone’ against the foot end, counterpart of complete tile B 402.4 against the head end. B 699.0 is a unique piece: a slatestone slab 101x73x10 cm, on which the coin (84x35 cm) of a girl stood. B 504.1 and 2 are large blocks of white limestone and grey so-called stinking limestone, which were found along the long south edge of the grave, together with a tegula fragment with cement on it: reused building-materials. The same holds for B 537.1 and B 536.2. Brick: 24 examples Examples: B 20, B 29.1-2 (two complete imbrices), B 57.2a (fragment of imbrex), B 57.4 (two tegula fragments), B 94, B 233 (two tiles), B 402.4 (complete tegula), B 409.2 (imbrex fragments), B 504.3 (tegula fragment), B 547.intr. (imbrex fragment), B 622, B 650, B 663, B 681.3-4, B 689, B 702.6 (complete imbrex), B 759.intr., B 794.intr., B 795.2-6 (imbrices), OO 62.4-5 (eight iting imbrex fragments and one non-iting), OO 150.1, OO 203.3, OO 366.6, OO 431.1 (tile fragment), OO stray 16 (an apparently complete tegula with stamp LXG; not found in museum store). Discussion: Brick can have four functions in the graves: covering a group of grave goods, covering individual grave goods, covering the grave or the inhumation, and lateral limit of the grave. Covering a group of grave goods: In B 94 two iting 388 — fragments of an imbrex and two tegula fragments together with a ield stone covered all grave goods in the western (foot) end. The complete imbrex B 702.6 covered four out of ive grave goods in a niche (in the northwest, to the let of the feet). Covering individual grave goods: Individual grave goods were covered by imbrex fragments in the case of OO 62.4-5 and OO 203.2. In B 681 three tegula fragments each covered an individual grave good in a niche on the north side. One of these has a fragmentary brick stamp: (branch) G. This must be a stamp of Legio X Gemina, which occupied Nijmegen AD 71-104; to be precise: one of the stamps 68, 69, 70 and 74, in Brunsting/ Steures 1995 and 1997, all of which have a branch before the G. Covering the grave or the inhumation: Complete imbrices B 29.1-2 covered a very small grave of 70x20 cm. They possibly did not serve as grave marker above the ground, as they were still complete; see also the ind circumstance of B 795.2-6 below. A marker underground, in case one would like to dig a new grave in the same plot? In the case of B 795.2-6 three complete and several fragmentary imbrices were lying on the longitudinal axis of the coin. As a beaker was found on a higher level, they cannot have served as grave marker above ground. The three iting imbrex fragments B 409.2, whose position in the grave was not clear, will have covered something in the grave but it remains unclear what. Lateral limit of the grave: Grave B stray f consisted completely of tegulae. Complete tegula B 402.4 was standing against the head end of the grave, and was a counterpart of a rather large oblong stone against the foot end. OO 431.1 was a tegula fragment at the head end. Two identical tiles had been placed against the long north side of B 233. There was cement on B 504.3: reused building material, just like the two stone fragments B 504.1-2, put against the long south side of the grave. Unclear remains the function of the brick fragments in B 20, B 663, B 650, B 622, B 689, B 759 (in grave illing, so probably intrusions), B 794, and B 547. The most probable solution is that these are all intrusions, which got accidentally into the graves when they were being illed in. Stone sarcophagi: 8 examples Examples: B 458.1, B 536.1, B 580.1, B 601.1, B 620.0, B 627.1, B stray 156, B stray 280, Remainder stray 17. (NB B stray 280 and Remainder stray 17 are earlier sarcophagi, as appears from their grave goods.) Discussion: Table 22 summarizes what we know about the sarcophagi from the documentation. In the second longest sarcophagus found during the excavations, the one from the Grutberg, a young girl (8-10 years or younger) was laid to rest. All other sarcophagi were (as good as) empty when found. We may safely assume that all ive smaller sarcophagi were also meant for children. The largest one, only 10 cm longer than that of the Grutberg, was probably also meant for a child. All sarcophagi are rectangular and undecorated inside and out. Two sarcophagi have notches at their tops for a lever that would have helped to put the lid in its place: B 580.1 two notches on a long side, B 620.0 one on a short side. There are three types of sarcophagus lids. For B 580.1 a lat slab is certain; B 620 has a high roof model with four oblique curved planes; B stray 131 had a similar lid, which got lost when it was lited before it could have dried. The lid of B 458, which was apparently lost when it was tried to lit it, had a lat underside, side planes h 10 (at corners) and 15 (under the rib), two slightly concave top planes along the rib. It is shown on a photograph but was not drawn in the object drawing. (Two other drawings have its shape wrong: the detailed drawing of B 456-8 and the overall drawing of Brunsting’s excavation in area LN.) The sarcophagus of the Grutberg (= B 620.0) is dated by its grave goods and coins to AD 317318; B stray 156, to VI. As to the distribution of these simple sarcophagi, they are all but absent from Gellep (a single sarcophagus: Pirling/Siepen 2006, 13) but 389 — Table 22: stone sarcophagi number drawn l w h lid stone age artefacts B 458.1 yes 100 45 30 low tufa child no B 536.1 no 105 63 ? ? ? <7 no B 580.1 yes 107 61 41 slab ? ? no B 601.1 yes 120 50 60 lost limestone ? no B 620.0 yes 160 66 58 high tufa f <8 yes B 627.1 yes 126 37 52 lost tufa ? no OO 338 - - - - OO 361 2 sides - - x OO 362 - - - x There is a marked diference in measurements with the stray inds of sarcophagi, dated ?, IIIa and AD 270-280, respectively. The sarcophagi found in the excavations were all meant for children; the stray sarcophagi of earlier date, for adults: B stray 156 no 170 59 46 high sandstone ? yes B stray 280 no 232 85 40 ? tufa ? yes Rem.str. 17 no 280 80 62 ? tufa <40 yes present in Cologne (Haberey 1934) and Worms (Grünewald 1990, 21). Both in Cologne and in Worms a bed of chalk in the sarcophagi was atested (Haberey 1934, 276-7; Grünewald 1990, 38), probably put there to accelerate the decomposition of the body. Nothing like it was atested in the two Nijmegen intact sarcophagi, which were both emptied in the Nijmegen Museum G.M. Kam, i.e. under ideal circumstances (Oude Graafseweg and Grutberg: Buchem 1951 and 1958a; in the present study: Remainder stray 17-21 and grave B 620). The report, writen by Brunsting on the day the Grutberg sarcophagus was opened, 14 October 1957, does not mention such a chalk layer, nor do the ive photographs of the contents show a white layer (two of them published in Swinkels/Deckers-Hageman 1997, 32). The only white substance Brunsting mentions was on the forehead, tentatively interpreted by him as an unction: see remark to grave B 620. Date: IVa-VI. 390 — 14 Interpretation Time Before: was there a ‘gap of Nijmegen’ AD 270313? The present-day city of Nijmegen, on a bend of the river Waal, partly on an ice-pushed ridge in the SE and partly on the low bank of the river in the NW, has a long range of Roman sites. From E to W: on the ice-pushed ridge Kops Plateau, Hunerberg and Valkhof; and on the low S bank of the river the Roman town of Ulpia Noviomagus. The town of Ulpia Noviomagus is usually dated with the help of coins and potery in its cemetery (Brunsting 1937) to AD 70-270. The latest coin in the tiny excavated part of its town-moat is an antoninianus of Gallienus and dates from AD 259-260 (RIC V/1, 44 (C); Bogaers/Haalebos 1986, 3, 10 n. 12). Though the causes are guessed at in the literature, it is not clear how its end came (Brunsting 1937, 210; Noviomagus 1979, 62; Van Es 1981, 156; Willems 1990, 72; Van Enckevort et al. 2000a, 84; Haalebos/Willems in: Willems et al. 2005, 52; Willems/Van Enckevort 2009, 27-8, 74 (‘The end of the urban setlement, as a result of the Germanic raids, may be dated to c.260/270’), 79). Even less clear is, what happened to the population between the end of Ulpia Noviomagus and the beginning of the setlement on the Valkhof and its Late Roman cemeteries, which are subject of the present study. Also around 260/270, communis opinio has it, the auxiliary fortresses of the limes in the Dutch part of Germania Inferior were abandoned and the frontier collapsed (Van Es 1981, 47; Bechert/Willems 1995, 26-7). The Franks had newly formed (Panegyrici Latini 11.5.4; 7.2) from the Germanic tribes on the right border of the Rhine (Amsivarii, Bructeri, Chamavi, Chatuarii, possibly the Chati) and from AD 260 onward they invaded the Roman Empire many times, as far as southern Gaul and Hispania. Trier fell AD 275/6. Bechert/Willems (1995, 26-7) writes: ‘Earlier on, it was supposed that with the invasions of the Franks in the second half of the third century, part of the fortresses on the limes of lower Germany, especially those west of Ni- jmegen, were demolished and given up. Nowadays, however, we have come to the conclusion that this was perhaps an oversimpliication. In principle, it seems to be correct that the fortresses on the lower Rhine, between the bifurcation of the river Waal and the coast, were abandoned, at the latest during the fall of the Gallic Empire (274) and the invasion of the Franks c.275. On the other hand, the evidence is accumulating that at least some of the fortresses, such as Meinerswijk, Utrecht and Valkenburg, were again put into use in the fourth century.’ (Transl. D.St.) The authors are silent on what happened in Nijmegen, just behind the limes, between AD 270 and 313, when the Late Roman cemeteries began. Such reticence is not present in the more recent literature. Van Enckevort et al. (2000a, 9) shows a blank between AD 270 and 300 in a graph of the occupation history of Nijmegen and writes on the town of Ulpia Noviomagus, to the west of the Valkhof (84): ‘.. activities of cratsmen. Around the middle of the third century, they came to a (temporary) end. In the fourth century, Frankish colonists seem to have been squating in the ruins of the town.’ (Transl. D.St.). In 2003, Van Enckevort and Thijssen write: ‘Just ater the middle of the 3rd century these activities came to an end. Nijmegen, like other parts of the Lower Rhine area, was abandoned around AD 260/270’ (in: Wilson (ed.) 2003, 70-1). It should be noted that this later quotation is about entire present-day Nijmegen with its long range of Roman sites, not only about its town of Ulpia Noviomagus. Willems et al. (2005, 111) repeats the message of Van Enckevort et al. (2000a, 9). Driessen’s (2007, 167, 170) thesis on the topography, setlement continuity and monumentality of Roman Nijmegen is again silent on the end of Ulpia Noviomagus and so glosses over the two problems of setlement continuity: before and ater the Late Roman cemeteries. Willems/van Enckevort 2009, the redrated English version of the study in Dutch Willems et al. 2005, is unclear about a gap of Nijmegen, as the following three 391 — quotes show: ‘At the start of the 4th c., Constantine succeeded in re-establishing Roman control of the Lower Rhine ater some decades of chaos.’ (27) ‘However, the shit of the centre of habitation to the Valkhof and surroundings does not mean that Ulpia Noviomagus was entirely deserted in this period. There are various indications now that there was some habitation in the Late Roman period.’ (28) ‘Like other places in the Lower Rhine area, Nijmegen was largely abandoned around 270 under the pressure of recurring atacks by Germanic tribes. Under Constantine the Great Nijmegen became a signiicant setlement once again, but Ulpia Noviomagus was not rebuilt, although there are indications that Frankish colonists lived amidst the ruins.’ (79) The same study (99) and Koster (2010, 4) sum up the evidence: some crossbow ibulae, terra sigillata with roller stamp decoration and some fourth-century coins. So, if indeed these fourth-century inhabitants of Ulpia Noviomagus were Frankish, they exclusively used things Roman and cannot be recognised as Frankish; a motif we shall see recurring below, in the section Excursus 1: Cemetery OO Frankish?! There is enough evidence to show that this ‘gap of Nijmegen’, even for Ulpia Noviomagus itself, does not exist: coins, potery, literary evidence, and, to be discussed below, the population size of Ulpia Noviomagus and the Valkhof setlement. Coins Firstly, our own cemeteries do have coins from the period (see Coin list 3): two antoniniani from AD 270, one from 272-280, one from 276-282, and one follis from 295; moreover, the ten coins from the irst fourth-century coin period (AD 298-307) all fall within the time of this supposed gap of Nijmegen. Secondly, a recent study of the coins from the Kops Plateau has twelve coins dating to AD 270300, eleven of which barbaric imitations (Van der Vin 2002, 200, nos. 4348-59): 4x Divus Claudius II, AD 270-290; 3x Tetricus I, AD 270-273 (one of which an oicial coin, RIC 82-84); 2x Tetricus I, AD 270-280, 1x Victorinus/Tetricus c.270-290; 1x late third century, c.270-290; 1x late third century, c.290-300. They must have been used and lost on the Kops Plateau during the supposed ‘gap of Nijmegen’. A similar situation in Cuijk on the river Maas, a few kilometers south of Nijmegen, prompts Van der Vin to write (in: Van Enckevort/Thijssen 2002, 78): ‘Very recent numismatic research has shown that the (numerous) barbaric imitations of the antoniniani of the Gallic Empire in Northern Gaul (the S of the Netherlands, Belgium and the N of France) remained in circulation until the early fourth century. With that, we reach a linkup with the earliest emissions of Constantine the Great (between AD 306 and 310), and that way the hypothesis of continuity in the occupation gains more and more probability. The absence of ‘oicial’ coins in those years remains however remarkable.’ (Transl. D.St.) The absence of oicial coins is not remarkable: it is the cause of the presence of these barbaric imitations. The so-called barbaric imitations of the late third century have nothing to do with barbarians. They are emergency money, especially small change, issued by inventive private and semi-oicial Roman workshops in times when oicial emissions did not reach these regions (Brulet 1990, 14-5; Lamarcq/Rogge 1996, 82; Kropf/Van der Vin 2003, 58; Gilles in: Grüßinger 2007, I.3.7,31,33,34). In other words: they represent a courageous atempt of local people to keep the economy going in hard times. Kropf/ Van der Vin (2003), the article Van der Vin alludes to in the above quotation, speaks of local copies instead of barbaric imitations. The abstract of this article is as follows (p. 55): ‘The coin series from sites in the Dutch River area show a break during the last decades of the third century and the irst decade of the fourth century AD. Coins minted for Aurelian and his successors to the throne up to Constantine I are very scarce for all sites. The break has been interpreted to indicate the end of occupation of castella and setlements 392 — around AD 275. When the site inds from the Dutch River area are presented in the form of an adapted histogram however, the coin series show a striking similarity to site inds from Roman Britain, where, on the whole, continuity was safeguarded during the third century. The article argues that this gap in the coin series - detectable all over the western part of the Roman Empire - is caused by the special character of coin circulation during this period in the west and does not indicate the end of activities on the site that provided the coins. Coin inds even seem to suggest continuity during this period for a number of sites in the Dutch River area.’ The special character of coin circulation during this period in the west is explained as follows (p. 59): ‘The coins of the Gallic Empire [AD 260-274] (...) The coins minted for Tetricus I (whose rule started in November 271) and Tetricus II (coruler with his father from the beginning of 273 on) formed the most important component of Gallic circulation. An enormous number of late third-century hoards in the west close with a coin of one of the Tetrici. These coins and their local copies dominated circulation in the west for a long period (Schulzki 1989, 60).’ One particular feature of coin circulation in the west the article discusses (p. 58-9) concerns the coins of Gallienus (emperor AD 253-268), whose coin minted AD 259-260 was the latest datable one in the town moat of Ulpia Noviomagus: ‘The hoards show that relatively few coins minted for Gallienus (produced before AD 268) and Claudius II (AD 270) penetrated coin circulation in the Gallic Empire before AD 274 (Mattingly 1951, 282-3; Schulzki 1989, 51). Large scale inlux started only ater the end of the Gallic Empire in that year. The coins of Gallienus and Claudius II reached their zenith in the coin circulation of the former Gallic Empire in the second half of the seventies and in the eighties of the third century (Van Heesch 1998, 139) and dominated circulation in that area up to AD 294 (Schulzki 1989, 51).’ So the the chances are that our Gallienus coin, minted AD 259-60, only landed in the town moat of Ulpia Noviomagus between AD 276 and 294. The conclusion for Nijmegen and other places is (p. 79): ‘.. the histograms of, notably, Grave, Cuijk, Maurik, Nijmegen and also Heerlen and Maastricht strongly indicate continuity of coin circulation during the last three decades of the third century and the irst decades of the fourth century.’ Also in other recent publications we ind signs of continuity in the Dutch river area. Aarts (2007) writes about the site of Tiel-Paasewaaij that it is clear that all emission periods from Augustus up to the beginning of the fourth century are represented. Potery The other cause that made it diicult to detect activities in Nijmegen or rather Ulpia Noviomagus in this period is stated as follows (Kropf/Van der Vin 2003, 56): ‘Dating inds from this period proves to be a problem. In the west, a lot of ceramics and other artifacts from the late third and the early fourth century cannot be dated exactly (Curnow 1988, 61; Willems 1989, 36).’ That may be as it is, but irstly we do have a Trier beaker dating to AD 270-280 in the Oude Graafseweg sarcophagus. The sarcophagus (ind catalogue: Remainder stray 17-21) was found well within the built-up area of present-day Nijmegen. It is dated to AD 270-280 by the presence of a beautiful ine dark coloured beaker from Trier, of Künzl’s chronological group IIIc (photo: Steures 2009, 200, ig. 5). The ind report contains the suggestion ‘the grave of a magistrate of Ulpia Noviomagus near his suburban villa?’ (Van Buchem 1951, 8). The lines of commerce with Trier (for the beaker) and the Eifel (for the sarcophagus) were open for people with money. Secondly, in his 1937 study of the cemetery of Ulpia Noviomagus, Brunsting himself mentions no less than 18 pieces of fourth-century potery 393 — and then explains them away, so it is worthwile to look at these pieces and at his explanation. First the potery. Numbers 1-5: colour-coated Trier beakers of Brunsting’s type 8c belong to the fourth-century types Symonds 61 and Künzl 1.4.1 (Brunsting 1937, 202, 80-1, Pl. 3, 8c1-2; ind numbers WW 74, KL 140-1, WW 133, Leiden e 1909/4.24). Numbers 6-8 are fourth-century smooth jugs with painted brown bands (202, 83 no 16). Number 9 is a fourth-century terra sigillata bowl with roller stamp decoration (202, 35, WW 17). Number 10: a terra sigillata bowl is compared to a IIId shape (202, 51 no d, WW 4). Numbers 11-12: two coarseware cooking pots without handle may be fourth-century (202, 144 no 3b, WW 21 & 92, ‘probably to be dated c.AD 300’). Numbers 13-16: four coarse cooking pots with handle are fourth-century (202, 150 no 12b, WW 57 & 90 and two unnamed ones). Numbers 1718: two coarse dented beakers are even of the late fourth century (202, 157-8 no 28, WW 5 & 6). Then the explaining away, with which Brunsting safeguards his early end date of AD 260 for the cemetery (Brunsting 1937, 202). We must keep in mind that hardly any archaeological excavations had taken place in the Ulpia Noviomagus cemetery: both there and in cemetery OO, pothunters had been active in the beginning of the twentiest century, who daily sold their inds to the collector G.M. Kam. Brunsting tells that most of the pieces concerned belong to the less reliable ind groups WW and Leiden B, which comprise both irst-century and fourth-century pieces (1937, 8, 202). Now there is a terrain in cemetery OO, its easternmost point, where it overlaps with the irst-century grave group O, which is part of cemetery CC-E-O-S (see ig. 2 in the present study). The origin of the unreliable ind groups, according to Brunsting, must have been mistaken: what the pothunters reported as inds from the Ulpia Noviomagus cemetery must really have been found in OO. This supposition can however not be reconciled with Brunsting’s own remark, that the harvest of the day was immediately sold to Mr Kam (1937, 6). The pothunters could not have forgoten where the pots came from and had nothing to win from not telling the truth. Brunsting himself sees that something is wrong with his end date of AD 260: his own ind 21 is dated by himself to AD 280 (1937, 182-3); two of his fourth-century Trier beakers come from his ind group KL, which he does ind reliable. For that reason, he publishes drawings of them, as opposed to most other fourth-century potery (1937, Pl. 3, 8c1-2). Literary evidence There even is contemporary literary evidence, admitedly an argumentum e silentio, that a Roman setlement of some acceptable sort was in existence in the Nijmegen area AD 293, when Constantius Chlorus campaigned in Batavia, and AD 306, when his son Constantine held the irst of his two expeditions against the Franks. The literary evidence of these expeditions is found in the Panegyrici Latini (Pan.; all translations from Nixon/Rodgers 1994) and Eusebius’ Life of Constantine (translation Cameron/Hall 1999). Constantius Chlorus’ campaign AD 293 About Constantius Chlorus’ expedition AD 293 we have the following texts, among which a striking description of the sot Dutch soil: ‘He cleared Batavia and expelled the foreign enemy’ (Pan. 12.25.2); ‘he rid of every enemy the land of Batavia, which was occupied by diverse tribes of Franks under the leadership of a former native of the place [Carausius]’ (Pan. 6.5.3); ‘Many thousands of Franks who had invaded Batavia and other lands on this side of the Rhine he slaughtered, drove out, captured or deported.’ (Pan. 7.4.2); ‘During the whole of this period, however, you [Constantius Chlorus] never ceased to destroy those enemies whom terra irma permited you to approach, although that region which was liberated and purged of the enemy by your divine campaigns, Caesar, through which the Scaldis [Scheldt] lows with its meandering channels and which the Rhine embraces with its two arms [the south one being the river Waal], is hardly land at all, if I may hazard the expression. It is so thoroughly soaked and drenched with 394 — waters that not only where it is obviously marshy does it yield to the pressure and engulf the foot which treads it, but even where it seems a litle irmer it shakes when subjected to the tramp of feet and atests by its movement that it feels the weight from afar. Thus the fact that this land swims on what underlies it and, suspended there, trembles so extensively that one might claim with justiication that such terrain existed to give soldiers practice in naval warfare.’ (Pan. 8.7.4-8.3). Kropf/Van der Vin (2003, 82-3) comments on this passage as follows: ‘Reading the panegyric in detail, one gets the impression the soldiers were troubled more by the high water level than by hostilities in the River area, about which the text is not so explicit. This seems strange, for it is in the nature of the Panegyrici Latini to give a detailed description of even relatively insigniicant military victories. The author does mention however, that while preparing for the campaign against the British usurpers, the River delta was cleared of enemies (7.4, 8.1). (...) All this seems to allude to a rather mild kind of paciication, not to a dificult campaign to restore a collapsed border.’ So, Kropf/Van der Vin argues that the border in the Dutch River area was indeed not collapsed under inroads of the Franks (p. 80-1): ‘Taking into account the fact that the Dutch river area does not give quick access to the heart of Gaul and considering that this area did not show a fully developed urbanization or an accumulation of rich villas, it does not seem probable that the River area sufered from inroads of the magnitude seen in Gaul. The main atacks seem to have been aimed at the middle and upper Rhine (Ziegler 1983, 83-4; Cüppers 1990, 125), not at the lower Rhine. (...) With some caution, the conclusion may be drawn that large-scale devastation and disruption as a result of inroads of the Franks around AD 275 is not to be expected on the lower Rhine. There is no compelling reason to assume a signiicant break in continuity as a di- rect result of inroads around this time.’ Constantine’s irst Frankish campaign AD 306 The evidence for Constantine’s own expedition against the Franks AD 306 is the following. ‘Moreover, from the very beginning you followed your father’s brave example’ (Pan. 7.4.2); ‘And so, son of an Emperor (and a very great one at that), and one who has so felicitously obtained command, how have you begun to defend the State? You have visited with punishment for their rashness, I believe, some contemptible band of barbarians who tested the very beginnings of your reign with a sudden attack and unexpected brigandage. You did not hesitate to punish with the ultimate penalty the kings of Francia themselves, who took the opportunity of your father’s absence to violate the peace, and were not at all afraid of the perpetual hatred of that race and their implacable fury’ (Pan. 6.10.1-2); ‘Once he was established in imperial power, he irst atended to the needs of his father’s portion, supervising with loving care all the provinces which had previously been alloted to his father’s government; if any barbarian tribes living beside the River Rhine and the Western Ocean dared to rebel, he subdued them all and turned their savagery to gentleness, while others he repulsed and chased of his territory like wild beasts, when he saw that they were incurably resistant to change to a gentle life’ (Eusebius, Life of Constantine 1.25.1). The orator who held Panegyricus Latinus 12 in Trier AD 313 tells that Constantine, ater beating the Franks AD 306, let three quarters of his army in defence of the entire Rhine (Pan. 12.2.6; 12.3.3). The orator calls it the Praetorian Guard, which since then kept watch over Rhine and Danube (Pan. 12.21.3). Below, it will be made clear that the Nijmegen cemeteries began AD 313 ater Constantine’s second Frankish campaign of that year. Constantine, who took care of the entire Rhine zone, apparently had seen no reason to leave troops in Nijmegen AD 306. The cause must be that Ulpia Noviomagus still existed. 395 — Conclusion To round of: people lived on in Ulpia Noviomagus up to AD 313, certainly bought potery from Trier and probably from the Eifel, and as yet did not need military assistance. There is no ‘gap of Nijmegen’ between AD 270 and AD 313, when the people got a new haven in the fortiied Valkhof setlement, doubtlessly also called Noviomagus (Brunsting 1937, 210-1), and the Late Roman cemeteries began. We shall see below how the irst generation of the Valkhof setlement showed their atachment to their former city in the west. The beginning: AD 313 Still, the relief must have been enormous, also in the sense of money coming in from London and Trier, as was the increase in living standard. Some of the earliest graves are particularly rich and one of the most expensive kinds of potery, that from Trier, helps us to pinpoint the beginning. There are two indications that both Nijmegen Late Roman cemeteries were irst used just before AD 315: irstly, one kind of potery, and secondly, their coin statistics. Firstly, the use of white and some yellow barbotine on only six pieces out of hundreds of ine dark coloured potery from Trier: botle B stray 128, beaker B stray 240, beaker OO stray 181, jug OO 4.1, beaker OO 78.1, beaker OO 130.1. These belong to Künzl’s chronological group IV, dated AD 280-315: see Künzl (1997, 53-77) and the section on chronology of the Trier beakers in Chapter 11 of the present study. Not only cemetery OO had graves with this early potery: the presence of the two intact stray pieces in cemetery B, both found during works on diferent places near the town hall, shows that at least two graves there would have been dated just as early, had they been excavated properly. Secondly, the coin statistics. Table 23, which I owe to Dr Fleur Kemmers and her sharp eyes, shows the distribution of fourth-century coins according to mint and the eight coin periods into which the fourth century has been subdivided ever since the basic study of Carson, Hill and Kent (1960). She drew up this table in 2005. It has been adapted to R.W. Reijnen’s revision and update of the coin identiications of 2011, but her comments remain valid. In an email of 31st March 2005, Fleur Kemmers wrote as a comment on her table: ‘For fourth-century coins, there is the rule of thumb that they were in circulation for a short time. As there are so many periods, it is likely that coins of a period were delivered in Nijmegen in that same period. London appears to have a strong presence in the years 307-318 (fair enough: ater that its mint was closed). (…) In the periods ater that, Trier is absolutely dominant, except in period 7, when Arles takes over. That too was to be expected, as it is the trend in the whole of northwestern Europe. That trend has peaks in periods 4 and 7. The good representation of periods 1-3 in Nijmegen is therefore remarkable, something I have never seen before. Something special must have been going on in Nijmegen. My immediate association is with the fortress on the Valkhof. As it is, coins were delivered to the army; how they got in the hands of the civilian population, was the population’s problem, not that of the authorities. [She repeated this statement in an article (Kemmers 2007, 208); see also Kropf 2008, 11 with further literature.] Bronze currency was strongly regionalized in the fourth century. This means that the supply by the authorities determines the picture, and that hardly any coin slips in from elsewhere. As London is relatively close and its mint was working in that period, supply from London (and Trier) will have been chosen: they were the two nearest mints. The London mint closed down soon aterwards.’ (Transl. D.St.) A closer look at Coin list 3: per coin ater its latest minting date elsewhere in this study shows that the supply from London begins with one coin minted AD 303-305, continues with four coins minted AD 310, one of AD 310-313, one of AD 312-313, and starts in earnest with eight coins minted AD 313-315, ater which it eases of to 396 — Table 23: Coins of the Late Roman Nijmegen cemeteries per known mint and per fourthcentury coin period: see Coin list 3.

Apart from coin OO 382.8, minted AD 318, all London coins were found in cemetery B. The coin supply from Trier began with a steady trickle of ive coins between AD 295 and 305307, and exploded with no less than 30 coins in the second coin period, AD 307-318. There are ive coins whose last minting year was AD 313, one that was minted only in that year, and nine that began to be minted AD 313. Conclusion: potery and coins together indicate that both Nijmegen cemeteries began to be used just before AD 315, most probably AD 313. It is taken here to be the year in which both cemeteries began to be used. That was a year ater Constantine the Great had defeated Maxentius at the Milvian Bridge outside Rome and had become the sole augustus of the west. Ater his meeting with the augustus of the east, Licinius, in Milan AD 313, where they drew up the document known as the Edict of Milan, Constantine returned to our region in order to reside in Trier and to subdue the Franks, just as he had done AD 306. Now Constantine was a proliic lawgiver (Liebs in: Demandt/Engemann 2007, 190-6, esp. 196) and laws were dated and mentioned the place where they had been drawn up, so that we can follow his whereabouts. His second expedition against the Franks took place in June/July 313 (Pan. 12.21.5): on June 15th, he was still in Trier, on July 1st and 27th he 397 — B 298 The miniature set of scales, the shells and the ornaments in grave B 298 show the deceased to be an eccentric lady from Cologne, who worshipped Sabazios. was in Cologne, on July 15 and 20 he held the Ludi Francici for the irst time, and August 3rd he was back in Trier, where Panegyricus 12 was delivered (Seeck 1919, 161; Pan. 12.1.1: hic rursus = on your return here; Pan. 12.24.2: trucem Francum = the grim Frank; Nixon/Rodgers 1994, 289, 294 n. 1, 329 n. 146; Filocalus’ Calendar of AD 354, July 15 and 20). We may assume that he took the initiative to reestablish Nijmegen as a stronghold against the Franks in those months, to be precise: in the second half of June or the irst half of July AD 313. Appendix 4, overview of the dated graves, shows that AD 325 or earlier is the terminus ante quem for graves B 22, B 140, B 176, B 180, B 297, B 298, B 620, OO 4, OO 78, OO 130, OO 149, OO 159, OO 161, OO 176, OO 209, OO 234, and stray inds B stray 128, B stray 240 and OO stray 181. By AD 325, the use of both cemeteries was in full swing. Amongst these graves, there are two rich ones that have drawn atention in the literature be- fore: B 298 is the grave interpreted both here and in earlier articles by the author as that of a female Sabazios worshipper from Cologne (Steures 2004ab). B 620 is the sarcophagus from the Grutberg with its tambourine sticks: see literature in Chapters 5 and 12. Two potery periods There are two potery periods in the Nijmegen cemeteries. The irst one is characterized by abundance and niches for gravegoods, the second by shortage. Potery period 1 comprises the irst two-thirds of the fourth century. Pirling dates the Trier beakers to this time, i.e. up to AD 367. If she is right, which may well be, there was a twelve-year-long retardation, in which beakers already arrived in Nijmegen were still being used as grave goods. For AD 353-355 was the period of disasters. Magnentius had himself hailed as augustus AD 351 and had seized power in Gaul. His brother and caesar Decentius besieged Trier AD 353 398 — (Amm.Marc. 15,6,4). Goethert (in: Demandt/ Engemann 2007, 402) suggests that this siege caused the demolition of the poteries before the city wall on the bank of the Moselle. This sounds more probable to me than Suzanna Künzl’s (1997, 118, 129) opinion that competition by the Argonnes terra sigillata caused the end of the ine dark coated beakers from Trier. In 355, the military commander Silvanus (Amm.Marc. 15,5) rose in Cologne against court intrigues, and the power vacuum ater he was murdered caused a devastating incursion of Frankish and Alamannic hordes. Cologne was devastated and Trier was for a time overrun. For Cologne we have an ancient report: Amm.Marc. 15,8,19. There are no certain ancient reports about devastations in Trier, but it is generally taken for granted that the two devastated cities that Julian saw AD 356 according to Libanius or.18,46 are Cologne and Trier. For the region around Trier, Schwinden (1984) has listed the archaeological reports of devastations of AD 355. The production of the Trier beakers came to an end, and the uncertainty of the times prevented the potters from resuming their work. Suddenly, there was a menace from across the Rhine and the low of products from Cologne and Trier stopped. As for potery and glass vessels, cemetery OO only participates in potery period 1. The possible cause will be treated below in the section The roads: the road from the Valkhof to the east seems to have been closed. Potery period 2 is limsy: just a few graves in cemetery B with terminus post quem of AD 376 and later, half the time covered by the present study (see end of Appendix 4), have Argonnes terra sigillata and the coarse ware from the Eifel, which was now to dominate the market up to the high Middle Ages (Redknap 1999). The reason why people stopped giving grave goods may well have been shortage of potery and food. Van Es (1968, 11) already said and wrote: ‘The abolishing of grave goods, possibly considered a meaningless - but costly! - conven- tion by the population, is noticed also in nonChristian circles.’ (Transl. D.St.) The present study follows Pirling for the date of the undecorated Trier beakers, up to AD 367, and in the same time Künzl’s AD 355 (1997, 69-74) for the decorated ones. The line between potery periods 1 and 2 may be nearer to the earlier date. There are no dated graves between AD 367, the year to which grave B 726 had to be dated because of the presence of two vessels of IVAB and IVC date, and AD 376, the terminus post quem for graves B 114, B 135 and B 480, which all contain artefacts of IVd date. Potery period 1: AD 313-355/367 The vast majority of the graves in both cemeteries is by no means as sharply dated as the ones mentioned above in the section The beginning, as appears from the following statistics. The ind catalogue of cemetery B contains 834 graves, that of cemetery OO, 489. Out of these 1323 graves, 502 (= 38%) are dated in some way. Out of these 502 dated graves, 406 (=81%) have both a terminus post quem (tpq) and a terminus ante quem (taq); 52 (=10%) only have a tpq, and 44 (=9%) only have a taq. 38 graves (=8%) with only an early tpq could not be used in the overview of the dated graves in Appendix 4. So Appendix 4 contains 464 dated graves, which is more than one-third (35%) of the grand total of 1323. In other words, the irst problem is, that almost two-thirds of the graves cannot be dated. Next problem: most of the potery types of the fourth century changed litle, and can be dated no more precisely than to either the irst half or the irst two-thirds of the century: AD 313-350 or AD 313-367. Some types even occurred throughout the fourth century, so many graves get the dates AD 313-400. This shows, by the way, how stable the Late Roman lourishing-period was. As a consequence, however, many graves get one of these three sets of dates. That is not a good starting point for chronological analysis: the number of graves with dates in the years 313, 350, 367 and 400 dwarfs everything else. But we can make a virtue of necessity and use those 399 — years as reference dates. They are used in Appendix 4 to show the minimum density of the cemeteries AD 350, 367 and 400. Two important changes in grave ritual took place in this potery period 1, but they did not coincide and therefore have had diferent reasons. First, most graves were E-W, i.e. with the head to the east; at the end of period 2, most graves were W-E; then, the custom of giving a meal or a drink to the dead died out. We may be sure that burial with head W came irst: Table 24 shows that there are 22 W-E graves in cemetery B with pottery and/or glass vessels, and 14 in cemetery OO. It will be clear that the end of giving grave goods came ater the disasters of AD 355. The vexed question of the E-W and the W-E graves will be treated below in the section Orientations. Potery period 2: AD 355/367-500 Both cemeteries seem to end with isolated dated inhumations, ater decades without any graves with artefacts. But isolated in what sense?: the only graves, or the only graves with artefacts? In cemetery OO, these isolated graves are OO 366, dated to AD 364-408 by a large decorated buckle with associated strap end of type Sommer 1Cb4; OO 29, with its latest coin minted AD 378-383, and dated to AD 378 according to the rules of coin datings set out in Chapter 3, Explanatory notes to the ind catalogue; and OO 345, dated to AD 376-400 because of the brick-red colour of some of its beads. We may safely assume that cemetery OO went out of use in IVd, possibly as early as AD 378. When does the custom of a meal or just a drink for the dead stop? Now when we look at the list of dated graves in Appendix 4, we see that the bulk of graves with grave goods, i.e. with meals and/or drinks, are those with a terminus ante quem up to AD 367, i.e. the irst two-thirds of the fourth century. The latest dated graves in this Appendix, the iteen in cemetery B with a terminus post quem of AD 376-440, comprise no more than ive graves with potery or glass grave goods, the last one dated to AD 400 (B 114, B 135, B 137, B 480, B 143). When the priestess in B 465 was buried between AD 434 and 450, she received a ‘good old Roman’ meal in her grave, the irst one ater more than thirty years. In cemetery B, the present ind catalogue has six graves with a tpq of AD 400 or later: B 61, B 143, B 353, B 365, B 465, and B 798. The latest two of these are B 465, the priestess’ grave, dated AD 434-450, and the warrior’s grave B 61, dated AD 440-450: his type of axe does not occur before AD 440. There ends the Roman period of cemetery B: a lady of completely mixed Germanic-Roman culture, with large Germanic hairpins, a Germanic dish ibula with the Roman motif of an interlaced Star of David, the Germanic preference for old silver Roman coins already noted by Tacitus (Germania 5; year of appearance: AD 98), Preßblech pendants inspired by a barbaric version of a Roman medallion, and good old Roman fashion of Roman potery and glass grave goods, i.e. a meal for the deceased, long ater this had stopped in the two Nijmegen cemeteries. Every inch a Germanic lady, she still may have felt also every inch a Roman one. The military man in grave B 61 and the priestess in B 465 are proudly upholding Roman values, most probably both in the 440’s. They proclaim themselves representants of Rome, and seem to have no idea that Rome’s times were ending. These are the last dated Roman graves of the present study of two cemeteries, where not a single sign of violence can be found. And the Nijmegen peaceful transition from Roman to medieval times is not incidental. This has been argued for the whole of Germania Secunda by Dr Michael Erdrich, in his inaugural speech as professor of provincial Roman archaeology at Nijmegen University (Erdrich 2003). Not for nothing, the Mayen coarse potery, so dominantly present in the Nijmegen cemeteries and on early medieval sites in the Netherlands (and from Basel to Kent), continued to be produced up to the fourteenth century, making it diicult to distinguish between Late Roman and 400 — Table 24: W-E graves (W=2700) with potery or glass grave goods, ordered according to cemetery and orientation.

The translatio imperii, the transfer of the empire from Rome to Germanic kingdoms, was actually under way in the ith century. It was pronounced in the prologue of the Lex Salica, c.AD 500: the Imperium remains but the bearer changes (Demandt in: Demandt/Engemann 2007, 42). The phrase itself seems to have been coined not earlier than the twelth century, by the historian Oto of Freising, in order to legitimate the Stauian emperors of his time, in his Chronicon, sive Historia de duabus civitatibus 14, 104f and 138f (Wood 1997; Kunst 2002). But, avant la letre, it was already working in the ith century. And so our region quietly slips from late Antiquity into early Middle Ages. As Derek Williams puts it in the last paragraph of his Romans and Barbarians: ‘Perhaps not surprisingly the view of Rome as a noble lame, quenched by barbarism, is no longer in fashion. The ‘Dark Ages’ have been replaced by a creative merger in which Roman and barbarian combine with unexpected ease and ... proceed with relative calm into the ‘post-Roman’ or ‘sub-Roman era’. ... Romanobarbarian mergers of the 5th century made Europe.... (Williams 1999, 212) And therefore, cemetery B kept on being used. Van Enckevort et al. (2000b, 27) shows later inds of recent excavations, to be published by his Archaological Bureau of the municipality of Nijmegen, in two photographs, of the two periods AD 440-485 and AD 485-530. One photograph shows four iron axes of Siegmund’s (1998) phase C D E F G 313 367 313 350 313 367 313 367 313 355 313 367 313 367 H 2, AD 440-485, type FBA 1.1, and an iron lance point of his phase 3, 485-530, type Siegmund Lan 1.5. The other photograph (see also Swinkels/Koster 2005, 82 for a clearer one) shows three grave goods from the same phase 3: a pointed glass beaker of Siegmund’s type Gla 7.1, a glass bowl of type Gla 1.4, and a potery jug of type Kan 1.12 (Siegmund 1998, 204-5, ig. 81). I agree with the dates proposed in the captions of these two photographs: around the year 500, and end of the ith century, respectively. And there, around AD 500, cemetery B ends. It should be repeated here what was said in Chapter 11, Typology of the potery and glass vessels: the presence of complete Frankish carinated vessels in area G is tantalizing. They come from Siegmund’s phases 3 up to 9, the later being dated AD 640-670. There may have been Frankish graves there, but none was found during careful excavation. The alternative is that they come from one or more votive deposits. For these reasons, they cannot be used for the demographic calculation below, which includes the number of years the cemetery was used. It looks as though a group of Franks just setled there, without any continuity with the former setlement or cemetery. Just outside cemetery B, on the Valkhof itself, there is a small seventh-century Frankish cemetery: six skeletons, dated AD 620-680, were excavated by J.J. Weve AD 1910-11 (Bloemers/Thijssen 1990, 143; Thijssen 1983, 13; Ypey 1983). 402 — Ater: continuity between Roman and Carolingian Nijmegen? Finally, B 661 is the only grave to be dated much later, AD 701-750. It may be an accidental late grave, or it may, much less probably, be part of a continuity that we cannot prove. The present list of Siegmund’s types cannot be used on its own to prove continuity between Roman and Carolingian Nijmegen: irstly because all Frankish pieces treated here are stray inds; secondly because Siegmund phase 7, AD 585610, is not represented; thirdly and most importantly, because there is a gap of 130 years between the latest Siegmund phase represented, phase 9, AD 640-670, and Charlemagne’s coronation year AD 800. The question of archaeological continuity is treated by Brunsting (1955) and by Bloemers/Thijssen (1990). The development of the name of the city does suggest such continuity: Noviómagus, Númaga, Níjmegen, with the stress on the syllable before the leter m. Space The fortress The gap between cemeteries B in the west and OO in the east is caused by the setlement itself: the fortress on the Valkhof. Its northern edge is the steep slope of the ice-pushed ridge of Nijmegen, which was also used that way by all preceding Roman fortresses to its east (from east to west and from early to late: Kops Plateau with Drusus’ headquarters and auxiliary units (Peterse 2005; Willems/Van Enckevort 2009, 35-43), Hunerberg with the Augustan and Flavian legionary fortresses, and Trajanusplein with an auxiliary fortress: Willems et al. 2005, 55-93 with further literature; Willems/Van Enckevort 2009, 41). According to Willems/Van Enckevort (2009, 95) the Constantinian fortress on the Valkhof was built in wood; in the years AD 368-9 under Valentinian, they say (2009, 97), it was rebuilt in stone. As the ice-pushed ridge slopes gently down southwards, the south side of the fourth-century fortress on the Valkhof was defended with two dry moats: see Fig. 22 and the reconstruction drawing in Straten/Swinkels (2004, 7). These have been found on (and are nowadays indicated in the pavement of) the square in front of Museum Het Valkhof, where the more spectacular inds of both cemeteries are exhibited. The position of the moats is nowadays made unclear by the presence of a medieval hollow road, the Voerweg, which was cut between them and the Valkhof in order to allow traic from the low lands near the river Waal to enter the high city and vice versa. Willems/Van Enckevort (2009, 100) describe these lines of defense: “The inner premises were protected by a heavy wall and two parallel ditches, the second line of defense (…). The outer ditch was c.12.5 m wide and at least 4 m deep. The inner ditch was over 10 m wide and over 3.5 m deep. Between the two was a ravelin, a bank of c.15 m. The outer edge of the double ditch was located c.45 m from the demolished castellum wall (a robber trench c.1.5 m wide, illed with mortar and small pieces of tuf). This wall probably formed the outside face of an earthen wall constructed under Constantine I. The outside face was not added to the wall until the reign of Valentinian I. (…) The inner or second line of defence (…) was complemented by a irst line farther out from the fort; it too consisted of a double ditch, parts of which have been excavated on the Eiermarkt and the St. Josephhof.” The fourth and ith-century fortress itself was on such a strategic spot, that, possibly apart from a half-round tower still standing on the steep slope below the St Nicholas chapel (no oficial publications; suggestion in Nijmegen newspapers and in a lealet of a walk through Nijmegen in 2005), nothing was found of it: it was crushed by the success of its own spot. Whoever possesses the Valkhof overlooks (and can shoot at) the bridge(s) over the river Waal. Charlemagne built an imperial palace on top of the remains of the Roman fortress. It was largely 403 — demolished by Barbarossa, who built a new castle, which was inally demolished ater the French Revolution, when no authority was able to pay for its maintenance. In World War II, the German army built a bunker on the edge of the Valkhof. Like almost all German bunkers, it is proof against demolition and its top is now in use as a panoramic platform. The roads Roman cemeteries always align with the main road through the setlement and are outside it. The main direction of the Roman road through Nijmegen is ESE-WNW, following the edge of the ice-pushed ridge on whose northwestern end most of the city is situated. Both cemeteries begin to be used AD 313. We may therefore consider the two Nijmegen Late Roman cemeteries as one, belonging to the same setlement: the Late Roman fortress on the Valkhof. The main direction of the graves, be it generally E-W or W-E (the irst point of the compass indicating the direction of the head of the deceased, as always in this study), aligns with the Roman road parallel to the ridge, nowadays followed by the Barbarossastraat and the Ubbergseveldweg in the east (cemetery OO) and the Burchtstraat in the west (cemetery B). The Roman S-N roads are usually reconstructed as follows (Daniëls 1955, 44-6, 271-83; not described in Willems/Van Enckevort 2009, who do show the roads on maps: 20, ig. 4; 25, ig. 7; 28, ig. 8). Main road: Cuijk on the river Maas watchtower Heumensoord (Daniëls 1955, 296-9; Bechert/Willems 1995, 72) - Driehuizerweg Heyendaalseweg - Hertogstraat (formerly Heersteeg, i.e. militairy road: Daniëls 1955, 44) Valkhof. West branch, partly along erosion valleys: Ziekerstraat (formerly possibly also Hersteeg: Daniëls 1955, 279) - Broerstraat Grotestraat - river Waal. Thus, cemetery B is enclosed by three Roman roads: in the N by the Burchtstraat, in the S and W by the Ziekerstraat - Broerstraat, and in the E by the Hertogstraat. We may even see the paths between diferent quarters of cemetery B. Fig. 4 gives a helicopter view of all graves excavated in cemetery B between 1947 and 1976. In area LN, top right, there is a zone seemingly without graves, running SWNE, joined at its north end by a an area running NW-SE. Comparison with Fig. 11, the detailed map of area LN, shows that the areas do have disturbances of recent or medieval wells and cellars, but that the absence of graves is real in the areas in between where the virgin soil could be reached. The paths separate quarters of cemetery B with diferent densities: in the north, an area of low density with orderly rows of graves with niches; in the west, an area of higher density; in the east, a swarm of high density. In the section on status below it will appear that the north area with its orderly rows has high status, expressed by numbers of grave goods. To its east, there is a group of graves of diferent orientation, separated by a zone with no graves, as appears from Fig. 11. The reason for both the earlier ending of cemetery OO and the change to a north-south direction as followed by the latest dated grave B 61, must be that the S-N road along the river Maas became more important in the later years of the fourth century. The presence of the fortress at Cuijk, some 12 km S of Nijmegen on the let bank of the river Maas, founded by Constantine I and restored by Valentinian I, testiies to its importance (Bechert/Willems 1995, 72-3; Brulet 1995, 108-9; Van der Heijden 2002, 44-5; Van DrielMurray 2006, 44). By then that road, continued by the present-day Hertogstraat and Broerstraat, was the second frontier between the Roman Empire and free Germania, called the Barbaricum on Viatorinus’ tombstone from Deutz (CIL 13, 08274). It is suggested that the road from the Valkhof fortress to the east lost its importance and the east cemetery OO was no longer used for that reason. The zone along the Rhine between Castra Herculis (Arnhem-Meinerswijk near Nijmegen: Bechert/Willems 1995, 77) and Vingo (Bingen near Mainz) was not in Roman hands for a time, as is implied by Ammianus Marcellinus’ remark that Julian recovered the area AD 359 (18,2,3-4). 404 — Growth of the cemeteries Cemetery OO Only the map of cemetery OO betrays immediately how the cemetery grew. Graves from the irst years, dated between AD 313 and 325, are to be found in a zone 70 m wide to the south of and parallel with the Roman road, nowadays followed by the Barbarossastraat (graves OO 4, 78, 130, 149, 159, 161, 176, 209, 234). This zone remained in use between AD 326 and 350 (graves OO 9, 20, 42, 58, 63, 71, 88, 101, 103, 106, 109, 151, 152, 168, 169, 170, 186, 197, 199, 201, 207, 250, and 252). Most graves of that quarter-century, however, are to be found in a next zone with remarkable similar orientation, which is 35 m wide (graves OO 244, 249, 270, 271, 273, 276, 277, 283, 288, 290, 304, 316, 320, 338, 339, 351, 354, 355, 361, 362, 370, 371, 382, 383, 396, 400, 415). A southernmost zone, 15 m wide, contains graves of later terminus ante quem (graves OO 426, 433). Grave OO 447 probably is the southernmost grave of the cemetery OO in the main excavation area. The isolated group to its south, numbered here continuously OO 448-456, may ater all not be part of cemetery OO. These graves yield no data as to date, gender, orientation, grave type, and artefacts; in other words, they remain blank in any analysis. Below, the group will be let outside the calculation of the number of graves in the entire cemetery. Cemetery B The growth of the west cemetery B is much more diicult to follow, probably because it began to be used within the junction of the E-W road near the edge of the ice-pushed ridge, nowadays followed by Ubbergseveldweg, Barbarossastraat and Burchtstraat, with the W branch of the S-N road, nowadays the Broerstraat. The oldest two pieces of potery, with barbotine on them, were found just there; they have been discussed above, in the section Chronology, The beginning. The identiiable graves of the irst quarter century, i.e. AD 313-325, are few and far between, from N via E to S: in area D, graves B 22, 140 and 176; in area LN, graves B 180, 297 and 298; in area G, the sarcophagus of the Grutberg, numbered B 620; and none in area M. These seven oldest graves are widely scattered within a square with sides of some 150 m and its NW corner at the junction BroerstraatBurchtstraat. Graves with later terminus ante quem are to be found in this entire square. Apart from the one late grave B 798, area M only has graves with terminus ante quem between AD 350 and AD 367. Finally, the few identiiable graves of the following 75 years, between AD 376 and 450, seem indeed to follow the N-S road, today the Broerstraat: graves B 61, 91, 114, 135, 137, 143, 353, 365, 465, and 480, are all in the west half of the cemetery. But one grave adds another zone in the east, near the southeast corner of the already enlarged square, grave B 798. But it should be stressed that the easternmost grave, the undated B 800, is even some 20 m further east than B 798, and that new excavations between the years 1998 and 2000, to be published by the Bureau of Archaeology of the municipality of Nijmegen, went 30 m further east and discovered hundreds of graves. All this adds up to a rectangle with sides of some 200x230m. And if southernmost graves B 829 and 830, not shown on any other map, were indeed Late Roman ones, that would add another zone of 40 m in the south. However, their nature is so unclear (see ind catalogue) that they cannot be used in the calculations of the total number of graves, to be performed below. Family plots The growth of cemetery OO (Figure 21) makes it possible to discern three certain and three possible plots where the oldest graves are lying in the middle and the later graves keep a respectful distance. The certain examples are those where OO 159-161, OO 149 and 176, and OO 207 and 209 are the oldest nuclei. The three possible nuclei of such plots are OO 4, OO 78, and OO 129- 405 — 130. Things are diferent around the early grave OO 234, which is part of an isolated cluster. The two rich ladies’ graves OO 250 and 252 are surrounded by empty space. Similar plots can be recognized in cemetery B: around B 176 and around B 40 in area D (Figure 8), around B 297 and 298 in area LN (Figure 11), and around B 620 in area M (Figure 16). It is suggested that all these are family plots. The cuts between graves possibly are due to cramped space in such plots. The other suggested reason for the cuts is: graves can hardly have been visible above ground; no markers whatsoever were found. of this building block. This curved end gives a pear shape to cemetery OO (Fig. 22). The area of virgin soil excavated of the cemetery itself is 4,800 m2 (not counting the empty areas of the excavation south of graves OO 385 an OO 447), to be divided by the 480 graves excavated (not counting the southern group OO 448-456), neatly 10 m2 per grave. The total area of cemetery OO, 15,900 m2, divided by 10, gives a staggering total of 1,590 graves for cemetery OO, assuming the concentration is the same overall. Below, it is calculated that cemetery B has a higher density, of one grave per 7 m2. The obvious reason is, that cemetery B remained in use for another 120 years ater cemetery OO stopped being used. Population size The number of burials Cemetery OO Both Willems (1990, 82) and Van Enckevort et al. (2000a, 107) put the total number of burials in cemetery OO at a maximum of 850. Looking at the map of cemetery OO (Fig. 21), we perform the calculations ourselves. The northern, western and southern boundaries of the cemetery can be discerned. The northern boundary is a curved line between graves OO 15 and OO 6 in the main excavation area and OO 457 in the Hugo de Grootstraat. (Graves OO 5 and 6 are north of the southern ditch of an older Roman road.) The western boundary runs from graves OO 15 to OO 385; and the southern boundary, from OO 385 via OO 447 in the main excavation area to OO 489 in the Hugo de Grootstraat (we leave the group OO 448-456 out for the reasons given above). This southern boundary runs along the southernmost grave in a recent excavation trench of the Nijmegen Municipal Bureau for Archaeology, to be published later. We need an area east of the Hugo de Grootstraat, because that is the eponymous terrain OO, where the irst stray inds turned up in great numbers in the early 1900’s. No fourth-century graves or grave goods have ever come to light to the east Cemetery B How many burials could have taken place in cemetery B? This number can be estimated in two steps: dividing the area investigated by the number of graves found = 1 grave per X m2. Secondly, by dividing the total area of the cemetery by X. Reality is more complicated here. First, we calculate the total surface of the virgin soil that was found with Late Roman graves in it, i.e. by subtracting the surface of the later disturbances from the total area of the excavation trenches. This is the inner city of Nijmegen, with much more later building activity than on cemetery OO. Smetius’ moto of our book discusses just that. In area D, some 822 m2 of virgin soil are visible on the map, in area LN, 3,200 m2, in area G 323 m2, and in area M 1,462 m2, adding up to 5,787 m2. These 5,787 m2 of virgin soil divided by the 833 graves found in it gives 1 grave per almost 7 m2. If the area of the rectangle with sides of 230x200 m = 46,000 m2 was completely and evenly illed with graves, one per almost 7 m2, then there were originally 6,621 graves in cemetery B. As the map of area M shows that the west corner of the rectangle of cemetery B is empty, we round of at 6,500 burials. This is lower than the unex- 406 — plained estimate of 7,500-10,000 given by Van Enckevort et al. (2000b, 26), but considerably higher than the estimate of 1,400-1,500 (Wynia in: Noviomagus 1979, 66; Willems 1990, 82), given before the 1998-99 excavations. The total estimated amount of graves in the two cemeteries of the Valkhof setlement is therefore 1,590 for cemetery OO plus 6,500 for cemetery B = 8,090 graves. Calculations, results and comparisons How large was the community that used the two cemeteries? The formula to calculate this is P = k + ฀฀฀฀฀฀฀ D x e00 , t where P is what we are looking for: the average size of the living population, k is a correction factor of 10% of the fraction number in order to compensate for the general under-representation of children (Dollhopf 2002), D is the estimated total number of dead (= 8,090), e00 is the life expectancy at birth, and t is the number of years during which the cemetery was used (AD 313-500 = 188 years; formula from Acsádi/ Nemeskéri 1970, 65-6; amply discussed in Steures 1988, 94-8). Two values for e00 will be used here: the value of 28.03 years for cemetery OO found in Chapter 7, The living poulation, and a theoretical one. The theoretical value of 21.11 years for e00 in the Roman Empire was extrapolated by A.J. Coale (19832) from Ulpian’s life table (Ulpian, cited by Aemilius Macer, Dig. 35,2,68pr). Bruce Frier (1982) has eloquently defended Coale’s value against criticism. More recent literature on this value is found in Scheidel (1996, 117, n. 62). This completes the values to be fed into the formula. So, assuming that the population was stable from beginning to end, the lower estimate, using the value of 21.11 for e00, is 8,090 x 21.11 Population = 91 + ฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀ = 999 persons, 188 and the higher estimate, using the value of 28.03 for e00 found in Chapter 7, The living population, is 8,090 x 28.03 Population = 121 + ฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀฀ = 1,327 persons. 188 The lower estimate agrees perfectly with the educated guess of a maximum of 1,000 in the fourth century, by Straten and Swinkels (2004, 7). Bloemers (1990, 76; cited by Buijtendorp 2003, 207, n.11) calculates a population of 675-1,200 people for the irst-century Early Roman setlement on the same Valkhof. Buijtendorp (pers. comm.) estimates a population of 1,000 people for second-century Forum Hadriani, the Roman town near The Hague. Recent voluminous studies of the limes on Dutch territory (Colenbrander 2005) and of Forum Hadriani (Jonge et al. 2006) are silent on population size. A much higher estimate is the number of 3,000 for the population of Ulpia Noviomagus, the Roman town to the W of the Valkhof, calculated from its cemetery by Brunsting (1937, 17; not 5,000 as in Willems/van Enckevort 2009, 74, n. 35), who assumes its number of graves to be 12,500 and the years of use 170 (AD 70-240; Brunsting 1937, 3). Had he been able to use this formula and Coale’s life expectancy at birth of 21.11, he would have arrived at 1,707. Had he moreover used the lifespan for Ulpia Noviomagus found in the more recent literature, AD 70270 (Noviomagus 1979, 57, 62; Willems 1990, 63, 70; Willems et al. 2005, 104; Willems/van Enckevort 2009, 74), the number would have even gone down to 1,451. And now that it has been argued above that Ulpia Noviomagus existed AD 70-313, its population could be estimated between 1.189 (for a life expectancy at birth of 21.11) and 1.580 (for the value of 28.03). However, it has become clear in recent years that 407 — what Brunsting published in 1937 was only the south part of the Ulpia Noviomagus cemetery west of the present-day railway line to Arnhem, and that the cemetery, and so also the living population, was much larger (Brunsting himself was aware of inds farther east: 1937, 11; Willems et al. 2005, 48, ig. 19 no 6; Willems/van Enckevort 2009, 25, ig. 7 no 6). Koster (2010, 11) describes the area as follows: ‘.. the cemetery of Noviomagus extended over a length of 450 m between the two roads to the south (...) and along the road to the east, on both sides 150200 m over a length of c.1 km. On that base, the area of the cemetery of Noviomagus may be estimated at c.40 hectares’ (= 400,000 m2). This results in her estimates of 40,000 graves if the density was, as Brunsting estimated, 1 grave per 10 m2; and 30,000 with a density of 1 grave per 13 m2, as was the case in more recently excavated parts. Her values for t, the number of years during which the cemetery was used, are 200 if Ulpia Noviomagus existed AD 70-270, and 245 if it lasted AD 70-315. Her margins for life espectancy at birth being 20 and 40 years, the maximum in every of her four results is twice the minimum, and her population estimates for Ulpia Noviomagus vary as widely as 2,700 up to 8,800. In order to narrow this down to one estimate, I assume the following values for the above formula. D = 30,000; e00 = 28.03, as calculated above for Late Roman times; t = 243, as argued above. This brings my estimate for the population of Ulpia Noviomagus to 4,350. I hasten to add Koster’s reservation (2010, 11): for lack of data, it must be presumed that the population remained more or less constant; this will certainly not have been the case in reality. It has been argued above that some use of settlement and cemetery of Ulpia Noviomagus remained in the fourth century, by people of Roman material culture, at least up to Valentinian times. Their number will not have exceeded some tens. The conclusion is, that the population of Ulpia Noviomagus had shrunk to some 1,100 by AD 313, when the large majority was resetled on the Valkhof on the occasion of Constantine’s second Frankish campaign of June and July that year. This tallies with the estimate in Willems/van Enckevort (2009, 124), that the total population in Late Roman times was only 25% of that in the mid-Roman. Estimates without calculations Estimates not based on demographic calculations give the following numbers for Noviomagus: ‘probably never surpassing 5,000’ (Bogaers, Noviomagus 1979, 61); ‘the total population may have counted some 10,000, half of them soldiers’ (Willems 1990, 71, taking Noviomagus and the legionary fortress of Legio X Gemina (AD 71104) together). Willems et al. (2005, 180) do not mention a number for Noviomagus, but quote estimates for the entire Batavian population, whose capital Noviomagus was: 40,000 up to an improbable 120,000. The same numbers are given by Willems/van Enckevort (2009, 114-5). Finally, the same calculation as above, on the assumption that the only dated eighth-century grave B 661 was part of a continuity (i.e. that the cemetery stayed in use during the 438 years between AD 313 and 750), gives a living population of at least 429 and at most 570 people. These low numbers show how improbable such a continuity is. B 661 must be an isolated eighth-century inhumation in the midst of a cemetery that had been out of use for centuries. Graves and their contents Graves, niches and coins Possible correlations between the shape of the graves and other factors were tested by means of making bar diagrams, but none were found. An exception is the presence of a niche, which is of course correlated with the presence of grave goods, though not in all 137 certain cases. There were seven certainly empty niches in cemetery B, which was excavated by hand, and four possibly so in cemetery OO, where the planes were made by mechanical digger: they may either 408 — have contained completely perishable goods or may have been empty, with a practical or symbolic meaning that escapes us. The certainly empty niches of cemetery B were in graves B 7, B 69, B 564, B 581, B 619, B 643, B 746; the possibly empty niches of cemetery OO were in OO 99, OO 143, OO 395, OO 440. Moreover, there are nine graves where the presence of a niche is uncertain, listed in the section on niches in Chapter 13. It was hoped that the lengths of the grave trenches would correlate with gender and age, and that their bar diagrams would show four peaks correlated with girls, boys, women and men. They did not and are not shown here. Nor is the length of the grave trench a predictor of the presence of grave goods: every length has the same chance. It was expected that the depths of the grave trenches would correlate with the presence of grave goods, but also every depth has the same chance. It must be remarked that the depth of shat grave 217 in Cologne Jacobsstraße, 270 cm, not treated as exceptional by Haberey (1934), is never equalled by the graves in Nijmegen, although the Cologne graves have the same niches, potery and sarcophagi as Nijmegen. The study of a possible relation between the lengths of the coins and gender, which in itself again had a negative result, unexpectedly yielded the positive result for a diferent factor in both cemeteries. Both bar diagrams, shown in Graphs 3 (for cemetery B) and 4 (for cemetery OO), have two distinct curves: a low curve from the smallest coins up to 160 cm, and a high one above 160 cm. We see clearly that the deviding line between coins for children and those for juveniles/adults is at 160 cm. Coin length should not be confused with body length: 160 cm is not much below the average length of adults of the time. So the two positive but unsurprising results are: a niche will contain grave goods in most cases; coins up to 160 cm are for children. Grave goods At irst sight, there seems to be no standard layout within the graves for the combination of grave goods, i.e. vessels, mostly potery and some glass, for food and drink for the dead. Table 25, however, tells a diferent tale for the large-scale layout of grave goods in the cemeteries as a whole. Grave goods are translated there into dishes (in the sense of courses of a meal) and drinks: beakers, botles and jugs (and glass splinters, assumed to be of botles or beakers) into drinks; plates, dishes, jars, bowls and cooking-pots, into dishes, presented either like on a dinner table in ine wares, or as coming directly from the kitchen in coarse ware. Following Pirling, it is assumed that Gellep 57 is a jar not a beaker. Table 25 shows a baling parallellism between cemeteries B and OO both in percentages and numbers. It is as if the numbers of drinks and dishes relect a strict, almost military hierarchy. The Valkhof was ater all a fortiied setlement and not without soldiers with their crossbow ibulae. The implications have been analysed with the use of distribution maps. They lead us to the subject of status within the community. Excursus 1: cemetery OO Frankish?! It has been repeatedly suggested recently that the Roman cemetery OO would belong to a supposed Frankish setlement on the corner of the St Canisiussingel and the Berg en Dalseweg, the evidence being an unpublished building of 4x2.5 m excavated there in 1990 (excavation photo: Enckevort et al. 2000a, 106; Willems et al. 2005, 136, ig. 56; Willems/van Enckevort 2009, 101, ig. 34). The barn was declared Frankish because it is a sunken-loored building, the remaining depth being 1 m (cf. for such Germanic buildings Lamarcq/Rogge 1996, 127, ig. 27; Carroll 2001, 143-7, ig. 59). It contained pieces of burnt daub, interpreted as remains of an oven for baking bread, and Roman coins, dated either c.330-335 AD or IVbc. It is apparently part of a larger setlement, of which unspeciied building traces and several hundreds of fourth-century 409 — Table 25: The grave goods in the Late Roman cemeteries translated into dishes and drinks. 198 graves in cemetery B (= 24% of 834 in the 2 dishes, 7 drinks 1 - 3 dishes, 1 drink 1 1 3 dishes, 2 drinks 4 3 3 dishes, 3 drinks 3 - 3 dishes, 4 drinks - 1 3 dishes, 6 drinks 1 1 4 dishes, 1 drink 2 - 4 dishes, 2 drinks - 1 4 dishes, 3 drinks 2 - 4 dishes, 4 drinks 1 - 5 dishes, 1 drink 1 - 5 dishes, 2 drinks 2 1 5 dishes, 3 drinks - 2 5 dishes, 7 drinks - 1 6 dishes, 1 drink - 1 6 dishes, 3 drinks 1 - 8 dishes, 2 drinks - 1 Subtotals per cemetery 100 78 Percentages per cemetery 51% 51% 198 152 100% 100% catalogue), 152 in OO (= 31% of 489).

My arguments against these interpretations are the following. Firstly, a single barn built in a Germanic way does not make an entire unexcavated setlement Frankish. Not a single Frankish sherd was 410 — found, and the barn burnt down long before Frankish times. Secondly, if indeed the users of cemetery OO were indigenous people, they did not take on an indigenous material identity, but they used exclusively things Roman, and so they were Romans to all intents and purposes. An example: bronze belt sets and crossbow ibulae, used along the entire northern frontier of the Late Roman Empire, are deinitely Roman not Frankish (Ypey 1969, Swit 2000). Consular diptychs show crossbow ibulae being proudly worn by the highest oicials in Rome (Buchem 1966). Moreover, the authors assume wrongly, that all crossbow ibulae are to be dated to the second half of the fourth century (Willems/Van Enckevort 2009, 126). It has been shown in Chapter 12 that they were present right from the start of both cemeteries: ten out of fourteen can only be dated to the irst half of the century or up to AD 355; the other four are present from AD 330 onward. Thirdly and most importantly, the similarity of the cemeteries B and OO shows that they belong to the same Roman setlement on the Valkhof. They both began to be used AD 313 and everything is identical: the exclusively Roman vessel typology, the dress accessories, the shape of the graves, the food on the plates, and the distribution of food and drink, of Roman coins, and of status, OO overall even being slightly higher in status than B: see below. Last but not least, the idea of Roman soldiers defending the frontier, but living in an unfortiied peasant village, runs counter to everything we know about Roman military history and the ubiquitous fourth-century Roman fortiications. Cemetery OO is deinitely Roman and belongs to the fortress on the Valkhof. Status In a cemetery, status is equal to the amount of capital destroyed during burial. Social control will help to bring aspired status in a cemetery in balance with actual status within the community, which is determined by the percentage of the community ‘equal to’ and ‘below’ one; in other words, by the status percentile score. For the investigation of status, irst three partial analyses will be discussed below: the number of dishes, the number of drinks, and the number of glass vessels. Then the distribution of two obviously expensive ways of burying is discussed: stone sarcophagi and outer coins giving the impression of a chamber tomb. Then, obviously expensive objects are shortly touched: for women, tutulus ibulae and wooden chests; for men, crossbow ibulae. Finally, an overall analysis of all graves was made. The criteria for that analysis are discussed below. For each of these analyses, distribution maps were made of both cemeteries. These maps are not shown here; instead, the images they give are described. Overall status distribution maps are however given in Figs. 23 and 24. Number of dishes In cemetery B, there are 706 graves without any food (85% of 834 graves); 70 graves (8%) with 1 dish each; 38 graves (4.6%) with 2 dishes; 12 graves (1.4%) with 3; 4 graves (0.5%) with 4; 3 graves (0.4%) with 5 dishes; and 1 grave (0.1%) with 6 dishes. Clearly, 1-2 dishes amount to some food, 3-6 dishes to much food. So, some food was found in 12.6% of the graves, and much food in 2.4%. In potery period 1, there are two areas in cemetery B of graves with much food. The irst is the NW corner of the cemetery, i.e. the corner between the present-day W-E Burchtstraat and the N-S Broerstraat, the sites of the former Broerkerk with its cloister and the area just E of the town hall (Figs. 8, 11): 13 graves with much food: B 54 (with 4 dishes), B 86 (with 3), B 90 (3), B 150 (4), B 176 (5), B 177 (3), B 182 (4), B 183 (3), B 184 (3), B 189 (5), B 207 (3), B 216 (4), B 234 (with 3 dishes). The site of the town hall itself belonged to this rich area, as appears from the abundance of stray pieces found there: B stray 77-127. The smaller second area with much food is around the Mariënburg chapel, with 4 graves 411 — (Fig. 18; B 674 (with 3 dishes), B 715 (with 3), B 764 (6), B 779 (with 3 dishes)). There is an area in the middle of the cemetery without any food: the south of area LN, especially trench 142 (Fig. 7) and the entire area G (Fig. 16). The rest of cemetery B shows a homogeneous spread of graves of potery period 1 with some food. In potery period 2, two graves in the same NW area have some food (B 135 with 2 dishes, B 137 with 1). The unique late grave B 465 has no less than 4 dishes and is in the area that had no food at all in potery period 1. In cemetery OO, which has only vessels of potery period 1, there are 395 graves without any food (81% of 489 graves); 50 graves (10%) with 1 dish each; 36 graves (7.4%) with 2 dishes; 11 graves (2.2%) with 3; 1 grave (0.2%) with 4; 5 graves (1.0%) with 5; 1 grave (0.2%) with 6 dishes; and 1 grave (0.2%) with 8 dishes. Here too, 1-2 dishes amount to some food, 3-8 dishes to much food. So, some food was found in 17.4% of the graves, and much food in 2.9%. Here, a large central area has 15 graves with much food: OO 101 (with 6 dishes), OO 133 (with 3), OO 144 (5), OO 161 (3), OO 168 (8), OO 170 (3), OO 176 (5), OO 186 (5), OO 200 (5), OO 249 (3), OO 250 (3), OO 322 (3), OO 339 (3), OO 354 (4), and OO 361 (with 3 dishes). Moreover, there are two outliers in the NW area with much food: OO 26 (with 5 dishes), OO 71 (with 3); and two outliers in the E area of the Hugo de Grootstraat: OO 472 (with 3 dishes), and OO 476 (with 3). The rest of cemetery OO shows a homogeneous spread of graves, all of potery period 1, with some food. Comparison: there is a higher percentage of graves in cemetery OO with some food (17.4%, as against 12.6% in cemetery B) and those with much food (2.9%, as against 2.4%). A slight status diference to the advantage of cemetery OO between the two cemeteries can be detected in the number of dishes in the graves. Number of drinks In cemetery B, there are 673 graves without any drinks (81% of 834 graves); 92 graves (11%) with 1 drink each; 42 graves (5%) with 2 drinks; 17 graves (2%) with 3; 5 graves (0.4%) with 4; 3 graves (0.4%) with 5; 1 grave (0.1%) with 6; and 1 grave with 7 drinks (0.1%). Clearly, 1-2 drinks amount to some drinks, 3-7 drinks to many drinks. So, some drinks were found in 16% of the graves, and many drinks in 3%. In potery period 1, the same two areas in cemetery B of graves with much food also have graves with many drinks: the NW corner and area M around the Mariënburg chapel. The NW corner of the cemetery (Figs. 8, 11) has 10 graves with many drinks: B 16 (with 3 drinks), B 59 (with 5), B 150 (3), B 177 (3), B 182 (4), B 183 (3), B 196 (3), B 197 (4), B 216 (3), and B 218 (with 6 drinks). Again, the site of the town hall belonged to this rich area, as appears from the abundance of stray pieces found there: B stray 77-127. The second area, with no less than sixteen graves with many drinks, is around the Mariënburg chapel: B 674 (with 3 drinks), B 680 (with 4), B 686 (3), B 697 (5), B 701 (3), B 702 (4), B 704 (7), B 705 (3), B 706 (4), B 708 (3), B 723 (3), B 728 (3), B 741 (5), B 742 (3), B 751 (3), and B 764 (with 3 drinks). In between, there is one grave with many drinks: B 512 (with 3 drinks). The rest of cemetery B shows a homogeneous spread of graves of potery period 1 with some drinks. This time, area G does take part in this spread, whereas it does not have any graves with food. It is as if giving food was not done in the part of the community using area G and the south of area LN, whereas giving drinks was done. In potery period 2, four graves in the same NW corner have drinks: B 114 (with 1 drink), B 135 (with 1), B 137 (1), B 143 (with 3 drinks); and two graves in the S of area LN have drinks: B 465 (with 1 drink) and B 480 (with 1). In cemetery OO, which has only vessels of potery 412 — period 1, there are 364 graves without any drinks (74.4% of 489 graves); 72 graves (14.7%) with 1 drink each; 39 graves (8.0%) with 2 drinks; 8 graves (1.6%) with 3; 3 graves (0.6%) with 4; 1 grave (0.2%) with 5; 1 grave (0.2%) with 6 drinks; and 1 grave (0.2%) with 7 drinks. Here too, 1-2 drinks amount to some drinks, 3-8 drinks to many drinks. So, some drinks were found in 22.7% of the graves, and many drinks in 1.2%. Here, the same large central area we saw in the preceding section has nine graves with many drinks: OO 144 (with 3 drinks), OO 151 (with 3), OO 176 (7), OO 200 (3), OO 242 (3), OO 250 (6), OO 252 (4), OO 290 (5), and OO 339 (with 4 drinks). Moreover, there is one outlier in the N area with many drinks: OO 9 (with 3 drinks); and there is a second area of four graves with many drinks in the E area of the Hugo de Grootstraat: OO 463 (with 3 drinks), OO 467 (with 3), OO 478 (4), OO 481 (with 3 drinks). Comparison: there is a higher percentage of graves in cemetery OO with some drinks (22.7%, as against 16% in cemetery B); but cemetery B has a higher percentage of graves with many drinks than cemetery OO (3%, as against 1.2%). These two statistics cancel each other: no status diference between the two cemeteries can be detected in the number of drinks in the graves. Number of glass vessels Glass vessels, being much rarer than potery, must have had a higher price. In cemetery B, there are 780 graves without any glass vessels (93.5% of 834 graves); 40 graves (4.8%) with 1 glass vessel each; 10 graves (1.2%) with 2 vessels; 3 graves (0.4%) with 3; and 1 grave (0.1%) with 5 glass vessels. Clearly, 1 glass vessel amounts to just a glass vessel, 2-5 to many glass vessels. So, just a glass vessel was found in 4.8% of the graves, and many vessels in 1.7%. In potery period 1, the same two areas in cemetery B of graves with many vessels emerge as in the two preceding sections: the NW corner and area M around the Mariënburg chapel. This time, the later one takes the lead. The NW corner of the cemetery (Figs. 8, 11) has 3 graves with many glass vessels: B 150, B 197 and B 218, with 2 glass vessels each. The leading area of (eleven) graves with many glass vessels is around the Mariënburg chapel: B 663 (with 2 glass vessels), B 674 (with 2), B 680 (3), B 697 (3), B 701 (3), B 704 (5), B 705 (2), B 706 (2), B 726 (2), B 728 (2), and B 763 (with 2 glass vessels). The remaining area of cemetery B has a homogeneous spread of graves with just a glass vessel. In potery period 2, only the hard core of the NW area has three graves with one or more glass vessels; and the unique late grave has one: B 135 (with 1 glass vessel), B 137 (with 1), B 143 (with 3); and B 465 (with 1 glass vessel). In cemetery OO, which has only vessels of potery period 1, there are 463 graves without any glass vessels (94.7% of 489 graves); 18 graves (3.7%) with 1 vessel each; 4 graves (0.8%) with 2 vessels; 3 graves (0.6%) with 3; and 1 grave (0.2%) with 4. Here too, 1 glass vessel amounts to just a glass vessel, 2-4 to many glass vessels. So, just a glass vessel was found in 3.7% of the graves, and many in 1.6%. Here, the same large central area we saw in the preceding sections has six graves with many glass vessels: OO 242 (with 2 glass vessels), OO 250 (with 3), OO 252 (3), OO 290 (3), OO 339 (2), OO 400 (with 2 glass vessels). Moreover, there is one outlier in the N area with many glass vessels: OO 9 (with 4); and there is one grave with many glass vessels in the E area of the Hugo de Grootstraat: OO 473 (with 2). The remaining area of cemetery OO has a homogeneous spread of graves with just a glass vessel. Comparison: there is a somewhat higher percentage of graves in cemetery B with just a glass vessel (4.8%, as against 3.7% in cemetery OO); the percentage of graves with many glass vessels is all but the same: 1.7% in B, 1.6% in OO. No status diference between B and OO can be detected. 413 — Complete inventory of grave OO161. The presence of the large crossbow ibula OO 161.6 suggest that it was in the grave of a military oicer. Inventory of grave OO 271. The presence of the large crossbow ibula OO 271.4 and bronze buckle OO 271.5 suggest they were in the grave of a military oicer. Expensive ways of burying Sarcophagi Stone sarcophagi, however crudely made, must represent a great amount of money for material, labour and transport costs. They are only found in the middle area of cemetery B, exactly the zone where it was not done to put food in the graves: the south of area LN and the whole of area G. They are found in no more than six children’s graves: B 458, B 536, B 580, B 601, B 620, B 627. The two stray sarcophagi in the area of cemetery B (B stray 156, B stray 280) probably do not belong to that cemetery and were meant for adults. Expensive objects For women Tutulus ibulae Conspicuous silver tutulus ibulae were found in graves B 620 (1), B 798 (1 or 2), and OO 362 (1). Outer wooden coins Outer coins have the same purpose as niches (Haberey 1934, 278): to give the grave the appearance of a miniature chamber tomb. There is only one grave with outer coin in cemetery B, in area M, which also has much food, many drinks and many glass vessels: B 704. It represents 0.2% of the 834 graves of cemetery B. Cemetery OO, on the other hand, has no less than 7 graves (1.4% of 489) with outer coins: OO 101, OO 103, OO 144, OO 161, OO 231, OO 250, and OO 354. They are all lying in the large central area that has graves with much food, many drinks, and many glass vessels. Wooden chests There are ive ladies’ graves in cemetery B with a wooden chest (0.6% of 834 graves): B 26, B 207, B 293, B 320, and B 701. They were all found in areas we already know as areas with rich graves: the irst ive in the NW area, the last in area M. In cemetery OO, there are nine ladies’ graves with wooden chests (1.8% of 489 graves): OO 24, OO 103, OO 144, OO 250, OO 252, OO 301, OO 305, OO 339 and OO 361. Eight of these graves are in the large central area with rich graves, OO 24 being an outlier in the NW. For men Crossbow ibulae Of the crossbow ibulae found in four graves of cemetery B (0.5% of 834 graves: B 167, B 345, B 409, B 782), two come from the NW area with rich graves, and the other two from otherwise undistinguished areas. Numerically and in percentage, they are in contrast to those from nine graves in cemetery OO (1.8% of 489 graves: OO 161, OO 248, OO 271, OO 283, OO 415, OO 426, OO 437, OO 461, OO 467). Seven are in an 414 — The young girl in the sarcophagus of the Grutberg B 620 belonged to the upper class and may well have been the daughter of the civil administrator of Late Roman Nijmegen.

Unique pieces Having something that no one else in town has gives status. The unique pieces are not only those that are thus named in Chapter 12, but also all well-known types that occur only in one grave each. OO 250, the richest grave of all, in the more military cemetery OO, may be that of the military commander’s wife. Overall status analysis: calculations and results For the overall analysis, a system of status marks was devised. For every vessel, a grave gets one mark, plus an extra one for every glass vessel. For each object, mostly ornaments, made of bronze, bone, glass or iron, one mark was given, plus two extra ones for a crossbow ibula and for an axe. For a silver or sapropelite object, two marks were given, plus two extra ones for a tu- 415 — B 465 The Germanic priestess in grave B 465 got a good Roman meal in Roman potery, decades ater the last meal had been placed in a grave.

This Germanic warrior may have felt every inch a Roman. tulus ibula. For a gold ornament, four marks were given (a set of ear-rings gets four marks, one gold ear-ring gets two). For a set of small precious stones, three marks. For each bead ornament, one mark. For a wooden chest, three marks. For a coin, either without or with small money value at the time of burial, 0.2 mark was given. For every other object, one mark apiece. For each unique piece, not only those treated under that name in Chapter 12 but also wellknown types occurring only in one grave, an extra mark per object was given. Potery types occurring once were not counted as unique pieces because of their low value: tomb robbers in antiquity did not deign to take potery away. As for expensive ways of burying, a sarcophagus gets ten marks, an outer coin four, and a niche one. 448 graves in potery period 1 got status marks, and 17 graves in period 2. The outcome of this overall status analysis is shown in Tables 26 and 27: a strongly hierarchical society. These tables do not show the 1323(448+17)=858 graves that did not get any mark. In potery period 1 (Table 26), the distribution of graves with 1 up to 11 marks dwindles from 121 down to 7 graves. Beyond the demarcation line of 11 marks, there are only very low numbers of graves. The highest grave but two, B 298 of the Sabazios worshipper, owes its high position of 31 marks largely to 4 unique pieces, 10 bone hairpins and 55 coins. Way up beyond that, two graves are at the top: the Grutberg sarcophagus B 620 with 44.2 marks and the lady’s grave OO 250 with 45.2. The lady and the girl represent the absolute top of the community. I tend to see the lady in OO 250 as the commander’s wife (the grave of her husband, the praepositus as his title would have been in Constantinian times, probably lying in the small unexcavated area to the immediate west of her grave), and the girl in B 620 as the daughter of the top civil administator. Their families had good reason to compete, as we will see below: they probably came from two quite diferent areas. In potery period 2 (Table 27), only a shadow of this stratiication remains, the warrior in B 61 ending in second place with 25.2 marks and the priestess in B 465 with 35.2 in irst. 416 — Table 26: Status in potery period 1.

In cemetery B (Fig. 23), the irst E-W status zone is formed by areas D and the north half of area LN with the following graves of nine marks or more: B 176 (9 marks), B 150 (10), B 59 (22.4), B 180 (16.4), B 196 (10), B 197 (13), B 216 (9), B 218 (13.2), B 293 (9), B 320 (9), and B 298 (31 marks, mainly due to coins and religious bric à brac). The second E-W status zone, to the south of the irst one, is formed by the south half of area LN and the whole of area G. Here, the top grave B 620, the sarcophagus of the Grutberg (44.2 marks) is lying in splendid isolation. The other graves with many marks are all empty sarcophagi: B 458, B 536, B 580, B 610 and B 627. This is the area where no food was given in the graves. The third and southernmost status zone is to the north and west of the Mariënburg chapel in area M with the following graves of nine marks or more: B 680 (16 marks), B 701 (21), B 704 (27), B 723 (9), and B 764 (11). The undisputed centre of cemetery OO (Fig. 24) is the triangle of the rich graves OO 250 (45.2 marks), OO 252 (20) and OO 290 (14 marks). This centre is however not exclusive: it also contains graves OO 251, 291 and 292, each without any mark. Around this centre, the following relatively rich graves are lying in an irregular rectangle, Terra sigillata plate and restored wooden bucket from grave B 704. The grave chamber, the barrel-shaped bucket and the many glass vessels in the grave give a caddish socialclimber impression of a Romanized Germanic man. clockwise: OO 101 (20 marks), OO 103 (11), OO 186 (11), OO 382 (9.2), OO 354 (11), OO 362 (10.2), OO 361 (10), OO 339 (21.2), OO 271 (9.2), OO 161 (13), OO 168 (13.2), and OO 144 (21 marks). This wide central area also contains many graves with fewer marks or none at all. Two groups of graves with no marks at all are conspicuously near the rich centre: to its north OO 224-8, and to its east OO 253-7, 293-8 and 325-8. The conclusion must be that status does not play an exclusive role in the division of space in cemetery OO. What does this all mean? The sarcophagus of the Grutberg shows that the middle status zone of cemetery B, with the sarcophagus of the Grutberg B 620 with its tambourine sticks having top status, was used by a small group of rich people who came from the southeast: the distribution area of the sarcophagi, apart from Nijmegen itself, lies between Bregenz on the Lake of Konstanz and Cologne; the distribution area of tambourine sticks is from northern Italy to Gellep. In the middle status zone, W-E inhumations were the rule right from the start; giving food was not done. Two well-of groups competed with each other in the north and south status zones. They started 419 — with E-W graves, but later on they made W-E graves. In cemetery OO, there was a small rich centre, around which there was a wider, more or less rectangular zone of rich graves. These two concentric areas were, however, also used by people who did not leave a trace of status in the graves they dug. The fact that almost four times as many graves as in cemetery B contained crossbow ibulae suggests that the military felt more atracted to cemetery OO as their place of burial. One more fact points into the same direction: a glance at Table 26, which gives the status distribution in both cemeteries, shows what would happen when one of the two cemeteries were eliminated from it. The status table for cemetery OO would still give the same picture, with four distinct classes or rather ranks, as if it shows a real military hierarchy; whereas that for cemetery B would show gaps in both the second class or rank (at the value of 22 marks) and in the third (at the value of 15 marks). The percentage of wooden chests (1.8% in OO, 0.6% in B), crossbow ibulae (1.8% in OO, 0.5% in B), outer coins (1.4% in OO, 0.2% in B) point to an overall somewhat higher status of cemetery OO, with the exception of course of the posh sarcophagus area in cemetery B. It is suggested that cemetery OO, as long as it lasted, was used by the military, and cemetery B irst by civilians, and, ater OO was closed down, by both civilians and military. Orientations The traditional view The traditional view on orientations in the Late Roman cemeteries of Nijmegen is prudently expressed by J.E. Bogaers in Noviomagus (1979, 66): ‘The part of the cemetery excavated in the Nieuwstraat shows particularly well that the W-E graves are later than the E-W ones. A clear stratigraphical division can be seen here. Many W-E inhumations cut E-W ones; only in a lim- ited number the opposite is the case. It should be said, however, that oten nothing was let of the skeleton, so that the orientation of the inhumation could not be ascertained. Moveover, grave goods are as good as always found in E-W graves; the W-E graves have in general no grave goods.’ (Transl. D.St.) The present Figure 13 shows the stratigraphy discussed here. Ater all that was writen above, it will be clear that even this prudent way of puting it is a simpliication: many E-W graves do not have grave goods, and 36 W-E graves do have them (Table 24). These 36 graves amount to 2.7% of all 1323 graves, and to 7.8% of the 464 datable graves listed in the present Appendix 4, and to 12% of the 299 W-E graves. The facts The bar diagrams of Graphs 5 and 6 show all Nijmegen graves of known orientation, i.e. where we know in which direction the head of the deceased pointed. Both bar diagrams have two clear peaks: E-W graves and W-E ones. They also show considerable variation within these groups. E-W graves cluster around 90° and vary from 53°-143° in cemetery B, and from 87°-147° in cemetery OO. W-E graves cluster around 270° and vary from 242°-320° in cemetery B, and from 260°-319° in cemetery OO. The diference in variation of these two groups in cemeteries B and OO is enough to show that there was not an astronomical, or, for that mater, astrological reason for precise orientation of the graves: the spread in the two cemeteries would have been equal in that case. The variation seems to be due to chance. Relative chronology: cuts between graves An approach to ind an answer to the question of the reason for the opposition between E-W and W-E graves is: drawing up a table of all cases where a grave is cut by another one (called a cut below), and where in both cases the orientation of the deceased is known. 110 cuts between a total of 179 graves fulill these conditions: many 420 — graves cut, or are cut by, more than one grave; otherwise, there would have been 220 graves on 110 cuts. 94 cuts are in cemetery B, 16 in OO. As we are looking for the opposition between E-W and W-E graves, we subdivide Table 28 in ive groups of increasing size. Group 1: in each cut, at least one of the graves neither is E-W nor W-E (11 cuts = 10%). Group 2: cuts in which both graves are E-W (15 cuts = 14%). Group 3: cuts in which an E-W grave cuts, and so is later than, a W-E grave (16 cuts = 15%). Group 4: cuts in which a W-E grave cuts, and so is later than, an E-W grave (30 cuts = 27%). Group 5: cuts in which both graves are W-E (38 cuts = 35%). What is to be deduced from this large Table 28 on orientation? A general increase, as time goes on, in the percentage of graves without grave goods, from 40% in the earlier graves of group 2, to 100% in the later graves of group 5. The results are presented succinctly in Table 29. Table 29: Tendencies in cuts of graves GN % Head points % without Mean number of r cuts ... in goods in grave goods in o early late late early late u graves graves graves graves graves p 1 11 where 2 15 67% 3 16 38% 4 30 90% 5 38 100% 10% 88% 14% 1.6 15% 2.0 27% 2.9 35% 1.0 elsewhere 88% 2.7 east east 1.8 west east 2.9 east west 2.7 west west 0.0 grave early graves else1.0 40% 94% 110 100% Group 1, which does not play a role in the opposition between E-W and W-E graves, shows an equal number of earlier and later graves without and with grave goods, 8 and 3, respectively. The average number of grave goods is lower in the later graves that do have them: 1 as against 2.7 in the earlier graves (in the two columns on the right in Table 29, the graves without grave goods are not taken into account). Group 2 consists entirely of E-W graves. The percentage of graves without grave goods within this group 2 increases from 40% in the earlier graves to 67% in the later ones. The average number of grave goods in those graves that do have them is 1.6 in the earlier graves, as against 1.8 in the later ones. Group 3 shows the irst real opposition between E-W and W-E graves. 94% of the earlier graves there, all W-E, are without grave goods, as against 38% of the later graves, all E-W. The average number of grave goods in the later graves that do have them increases here to 2.9 per grave. We see old-fashioned people reacting to the modernism of the W-E graves without grave goods, stressing their good old habits by giving some extra grave goods in their old-fashioned E-W graves. In group 4, where the earlier graves are E-W and the later ones W-E, the percentage of earlier graves without grave goods rises further to 47%, but the average number of grave goods in those E-W graves that do have them stays at 2.9. Of the later, W-E graves, 90% is without grave goods. Finally, in group 5, entirely consisting of W-E graves, 95% of the earlier graves is without grave goods, as against 100% of the later graves. The old-fashioned people of E-W graves and grave goods have died out. 47% 95% When did the custom of W-E graves start? Right from the start of the cemeteries. Certainly early W-E graves: B 620 and B 180 have a 421 — Table 28: Horizontal stratigraphy of the Late Roman cemeteries of Nijmegen. Every line represents one of the 110 cases, cuts, where an earlier grave of known orientation (the let-hand group of columns) is cut by a later grave (the right-hand group of columns), also of known orientation. The evidence is presented in ive groups, and per group according to cemetery and orientations of the later graves.

B 99, at 278°, has a taq of AD 330. Probably early W-E graves: It is probable that the undated W-E graves in the same cluster as the early B 620 are early as well (Fig. 16: B 615, B 621, B 628, B 631, B 632; in clusters nearby: B 564, B 566, B 582, B 584, B 588, B 593, B 611). Possibly early W-E graves: Looking at Appendix 4, we see that there are three W-E graves with pottery and/or glass vessels with a terminus post quem (tpq) of AD 330 or 334: B 680, B 704 and OO 426. Eight graves with taq AD 350 (B 13, B 90, B 169, B 220, B 456, B 697, B 749, B 760, and OO 20) and thirteen graves with taq AD 367 (B 151, B 198, B 676, B 734, OO 12, OO 26, OO 56, OO 76, OO 90, OO 94, OO 231, OO 349, and OO 433) give no certainty whatsoever: they may be early; there is no way to tell. The same holds for all W-E graves with taq AD 367, as far as they are not involved in the stratigraphical cuts referred to by Bogaers and shown in Table 28. Possible causes What caused the division of the graves into E-W and W-E ones? Below, we shall investigate status, gender and age as possible causes and come to the conclusion that none of them was the cause. We shall see that religion is a probable factor, but that it is improbable that Christianity had anything to do with it. Origin will be proposed below as the reason for burying people in E-W graves, and pagan religion for the W-E ones. Do status, sex or age explain orientations? A glance at the map of the clearest area, LN, in Figure 13 shows that the W-E graves are generally later. It has already been argued above that some W-E inhumations are early and that others may be so. If the opposition between E-W and W-E graves was caused by a factor like gender/age, status or ideology, which was it? Gender is deduced from dress accessories, age from the length of the coin (up to 160 cm for children; over 160 cm for juveniles/adults). I have chosen sharply dated graves (up to onethird century between terminus post and ante quem) of known orientation, of E-W and W-E orientations. Table 30 gives the data. The irst observation on Table 30 is, that neither the terminus ante quem nor the terminus post quem correlates with the orientation: when a time column has been ordered, the orientation column is in chaos, and vice versa. The reason must be the imprecise nature of dates for fourth-century artefacts, although time does play a role, as will be shown below. The same 426 — Table 30, The orientation, artefact content, and where possible gender and age of the deceased of sharply dated E-W and W-E graves.

Another conclusion to be drawn from this table is again a negative one: gender and age do not explain the orientation. The two girls are at 117° and 275°. The eleven detectable women are lying at 58°, 78°, 100°, 102°, 103°, 107°, 115°, 122°, 135°, 260°, and 276°. Boys are not detectable in these Roman cemeteries, as opposed to contemporaneous Germanic cemeteries (Groot 1991; Böhme 1974, 164). The four men in Table 30 are lying at 124°, 279°, 297° and 304°. It might seem from this small sample that women were preferably buried heading E and men heading W. The complete list, however, of the 58 graves where we know orientation and gender/age on archaeological evidence, shows no such tendency: see Table 31. Final conclusion on gender and age: they do not correlate with orientation. W-E graves: a Christian orientation? A person lying supine with his head to the west is looking towards the east. That is the position of the deceased during a Roman Catholic funeral service: head to the west, feet towards the east, where the altar is. The priest there, with the rising sun in his back, preaches resurrection. It has been oten suggested, always in short remarks not in argumentation, that the Nijmegen W-E graves relect Christian belief of the deceased and those who buried them: the head to the WNW, in order to ‘look’ to the ESE, where the sun of Christ rises, or where Christ is supposed to appear on the clouds at the end of times (VRGK 1947, 72; VRGK 1949, 94-5; VRGK 1950, 104; NKNOB 3 (1950) no 3, p. 9; ROB Annual Report 1950, 29; VRGK 1951, 116; VRGK 1952, 129; Brunsting 1952b, 11-12; Brunsting 19692, 24; Hubrecht 1972, 14; Willems 1990, 83; Van Enckevort 2000b, 25; Van Enckevort et al. in Willems et al. 2005, 196-8; sceptically: Van Es 1972, 202 = Van Es 1982, 261; contra: Wynia in Noviomagus 1979, 68). Similar remarks on late W-E graves in Krefeld were made by Pirling (e.g. 1994, 83). The question in general is elaborately treated in Table 31: Known gender and orientation E-W W-E Other Totals 2 1 4 7 Cemetery B Girls Girls/women 2 2 - 4 Women 11 7 1 19 Men - 2 2 4 Cemetery OO Girls 2 - - 2 Women 11 4 1 16 Men 3 3 - 6 Totals 31 19 8 58 Van Es (1968), partly ater Van Doorselaer (1967) and Nierhaus (1959). Van Es contests the automatic Christian interpretation. There are four arguments, he writes, which are always used to argue that Late Roman W-E graves are Christian ones: 1 inhumation supersedes cremation; 2 W-E inhumation becomes the usual orientation; 3 the custom of giving grave goods dies out; 4 where grave goods remain in use, they may carry Christian symbols. Van Es’ counter-arguments The counter-arguments of Van Es are the following. Against 1: The practice of inhumation comes from the eastern provinces and is part of the orientalisation of Rome and the western provinces. The superseding of cremation by inhumation began in the second century AD and was completed in the third, before Christianity began to take root in the West. Against 2: W-E orientation of graves has no biblical background. There is no place in the bible that predicts that Christ will appear in the east at the end of times. There are W-E inhumations from the beginning of the Roman Empire. In the second and third centuries, inhumations could 428 — be N-S, S-N, W-E and E-W and anything in between: their direction was apparently meaningless. So the start of W-E inhumations is not Christian. We know Christian N-S inhumations from Cologne and Strasbourg. Against Nierhaus (1959, 34), who writes that W-E inhumation is the preeminently Christian burial practice from AD 350 onwards, Van Es writes: ‘It seems to go too far to suppose that the W-E orientation would have been the exclusive right of the Christians in the fourth century. This is certainly the case in Nijmegen, where very diferent directions of the graves are found at the end of the fourth century. So the W-E direction of an individual grave is, even at the end of Roman times, not an absolutely certain criterium of Christianity.’ (Transl. D.St.) Against 3: Long before the fourth century, there are many graves without grave goods. Graves with other directions than W-E are also without grave goods. (Van Es assumes that a majority of the population found the giving of grave goods a useless but costly custom. The ive kiln wasters in Nijmegen grave B 176 do nothing to undermine this assumption.) Against 4: There are unmistakably Christian graves with grave goods, and unmistakably pagan graves with Christian symbols on the grave goods (Haillot graves 7, 12 and 14: Breuer et al. 1957, 300); unmistakably pagan setlements in the Frisian region also used potery with Christian symbols. Van Es (1968, 12) concludes: ‘When we draw up the balance, having arrived at the end of the Roman period, we must conclude that the archaeologist for this period possesses (as yet?) no reliable criteria to identify an individual grave as Christian. Inhumation instead of cremation, W-E orientation, the absence of grave goods, or, the other way round, the presence of grave goods, even if these grave goods show traces of Christian inluence, all these characteristics form neither apart nor in combination watertight proof.’ (Transl. D.St.) More counter-arguments The following paragraphs may be added to Van Es’ arguments. It must be admited that it was indeed believed in the Middle Ages that Christ would appear in the East. The last chapter (182) of Jacobus de Voragine’s Legenda Aurea, published AD 1260, treats the dedication of a church and cites John of Damascus (AD 650-?), Book IV chapter 5, who gives three reasons for orienting a church. The third is: ‘and when he [Christ] ascended, he was borne towards the East, and thus the apostles adored him, and he will come again as they saw him going into heaven. Therefore we too pray to him facing the East, awaiting his coming.’ (Voragine 1995, II 387). But it should again be stressed: there is nothing about the East in the texts on Ascension in the bible (Mathew 16,19; Luke 24,50-2; Acts 1,9-12; cf. Daniel 7,13). And praying toward the East was not a Christian prerogative. It igures also in Roman literature on temples and is mentioned as the habit of a Langobard pagan king. Vitruvius 4,5,1 prescribes the orientation of temples as follows: ‘The quarter toward which temples of the immortal gods ought to face is to be determined on the principle that, if there is no reason to hinder and the choice is free, the temple and the statue placed in the cella should face the western quarter of the sky. This will enable those who approach the altar to face the direction of the sunrise in facing the statue in the temple, and thus those who are undertaking vows look toward the quarter from which the sun comes forth, and likewise the statues themselves appear to be coming forth out of the east to look upon them as they pray and sacriice.’ (Transl. Morris Hickey Morgan; my italics) According to the Legenda Aurea, ch. 181, the Longobard king Alboin (c.AD 560-572), who had sworn he would kill all Christians, was accustomed to pray each morning facing the East (Voragine 1995, II 368-9; cf. Paulus Diaconus Historia Longobardorum II 27). If single W-E graves cannot be identiied as Christian, it will be clear that the same holds for 429 — groups of W-E graves found in contexts where no positive sign of Christianity is present. Nijmegen and Van Es’ counter-arguments There is overwhelming evidence in the Nijmegen cemeteries that Van Es is right: 1 the variation of orientation of the W-E graves, 2 the presence of grave goods according to pagan rite in W-E graves, 3 the scarcity of actual Christian signs, and 4 the orientation of the only recognizable Christian in the Late Roman cemeteries of Nijmegen. Firstly, the variation of orientation of the W-E graves. Cemetery B has its W-E group between 242° and 320°, i.e. between WSW and NW; the W-E group of cemetery OO is between 260° and 319°, i.e. between W by S and NW. In other words: the variation is much larger than just WNW-ESE (292°30’). Especially of the graves between 242° and 260° it must be said that the symbolic eyes of the deceased are facing NE, rather than SE where the sun rises. Secondly, the presence of grave goods according to pagan rite in W-E graves. There are many W-E graves in both cemeteries that do have potery or glass grave goods, i.e. a meal, according to pagan rite: see Table 24. Their numbers amount to the following. In cemetery B, 22 out of 240 W-E graves (= 9%) have grave goods; in cemetery OO, this is 14 out of 59 W-E graves (= 24%). Overall, 36 out of 299 W-E graves (= 12%) have grave goods. Thirdly, the scarcity of actual Christian signs. There is only one person in the Nijmegen cemeteries who proclaims to be a Christian: the lady in grave B 690 with a christogram (the monogram of the Greek leters Chi (X) and Rho (P), the irst leters of the name of Christ) on the agrafe on her forehead. Proclaiming Christianity cannot have been a problem in the fourth century: all fourth-century emperors were Christians, originally even Julian (361-363), who became the Apostate. In Chapter 12 (and in Steures 2004a), the two real parallels for the Nijmegen agrafe are discussed: one was found, and is irmly rooted in, the extreme south of Gaul; the other, with a christogram on it, supposedly even comes from Spain. The Nijmegen lady with the agrafe may have come from there. The south of Gaul knew Christian communities as early as the second century. There are two other Christian symbols in the cemeteries: a chest with Christian pictures of biblical stories, belonging to a pagan lady, and three coins of Magnentius and Decentius with large christograms on their reverses, found in two certainly pagan graves. The Christian pictures on chest 9 in the richly furnished and therefore pagan grave B 701 have a pagan Medusa head between them, meant to forbid anyone else but the owner to open it. It was her personal arca, and its contents were arcana: hidden, concealed, secret, private things. She needed a mythological, i.e. pagan monster to keep other people out. The rich grave goods in grave B 701 make it highly improbable that it contained a Christian person. This was apparently a time when it was thought that Christianity could be incorporated in the polytheistic system (Steures 2007). As a parallel, it may be mentioned that a female follower of the god Sabazios in Cologne had a similar chest with a Christian picture of the Three in the Fiery Furnace (Daniel 3; Fremersdorf 1931, Steures 2004b). Coins of the usurper Magnentius (350-353) and his caesar Decentius (350-353) have large christograms on their reverses. Two were found in grave OO 242, one in OO 480 (Meijers et al. 2005, 131, Fig. 1). The pagan Magnentius had political reasons to put christograms on his coins: he wanted the support of the catholic Christians against his rival Constantius II, who was devoted to Arianism (Engemann in: Demandt/Engemann 2007, 206). The coins were duely thrown in pagan graves, as appears from their grave goods. If the throwers believed in Christ, they believed in Charon at the same time. Fourthly, the grave of the only recognizable Christian, B 690, did not have the supposed Christian orientation: it was at 58°, i.e. with her head to NE by E, so ‘looking’ to SW by W. 430 — Three argumenta e silentio against Christianity Though every university teacher will tell his students that an argumentum e silentio is not decisive, I shall present three here. Firstly, there are no Christian grave inscriptions known in Nijmegen, as opposed to the other Dutch Late Roman cemetery of Maastricht, some 110 km south of Nijmegen, which does have them (Boppert 1986). Although the distribution map published by Boppert (1986, 64; repeated in Steures 2009, 201, Fig. 7) shows an isolated Christian inscription in Xanten, the southernmost city of the Netherlands, Maastricht, clearly is (together with Tongeren and Cologne) the northern boundary of Christendom in late Antiquity. Secondly, no roller-stamps (moletes) with Christian motifs on ith-century terra sigillata are known from Nijmegen (Dijkman 1992). The distribution map of such roller-stamps in graves (Dijkman 1992, 157, Fig. 25) shows about the same area as that of the Christian grave inscriptions mentioned above. The map of all such roller-stamps in NW Europe (Dijkman 1992, 169, Fig. 36; repeated in Steures 2009, 202, Fig. 8) shows seven examples from three places near Nijmegen: one unpublished stamp in Ubbergen, just east of Nijmegen; two from Cuyk, 12 km south of Nijmegen; four from Gennep, 18 km southeast of Nijmegen. That is far less than the 27 northernmost examples from four certainly pagan sites in the province of Friesland (Frisia) in the northeast of the Netherlands (cf. Van Es 1968, 12). The 33 examples from southernmost Maastricht do not come from graves, but from setlement excavations just around the irst church of Maastricht, below the present-day church of the Virgin Mary; similar situations were found in Auxerre, Rouen and Metz (Dijkman 1992, 157). There should have been many around a Late Roman church on the Valkhof (Willems/Van Enckevort 2009, 104). Thirdly, no Christian legends from late Antiquity are connected with Nijmegen. Even nearby Xanten, only 60 km away, where only one Christian gravestone is known, has a name that is derived from the Latin name Ad Sanctos, i.e. Near the Saints: the medieval town developed around the memorial chapel of St Victor, now succeeded by the St Victor cathedral, on one of the Roman cemeteries of Colonia Ulpia Traiana. Excursus 2: Christianity near Late Roman Nijmegen? Apart from the lady in grave B 690 with the christogram on her agrafe, there is hardly a sign of any Christian or Christianity in or near Late Roman Nijmegen. Smetius jr (1678, 63 = 2004, 46) concludes ater many pages of discussion (1678, 33-63 = 2004, 29-46) of two gems with Christian symbols, stray inds allegedly from Nijmegen, that on the island and in the city of the Batavians a pure Christianity had always been confessed from the beginning of the glad tidings of the New Testament. A lamp with christogram from Oosterhout, opposite Nijmegen across the river Waal, has been shown twice recently as an illustration in articles on supposed Christianity in Late Roman Nijmegen (Meijers et al. 2005, 130, Fig. 3; Willems et al. 2005, 197, Fig. 83). The lamp is not discussed in these articles. It is a fourth-century African lamp of a type published by Ennabli (1976). As lamps disappear from the material culture in the Netherlands ater the third century (L. Swinkels, pers. com.) and other African lamps are not known from the Netherlands, it would be highly surprising when a Roman in Oosterhout would have owned it. Moreover, the lamp is a stray ind, mentioned by Willems (1985, 106, site 154, ind f) and cannot be used in any discussion on the question. Stray inds of lamps can lead to strange results. A good warning is Groenendijk (2006). In a discussion ater a lecture by the author in 2006, prof. Michael Erdrich told the following story: Six cases are known of Roman lamps, found near setlements in Germania Libera. All six appeared to come from nineteenthcentury collections of local clergymen. The Late Roman army in the Netherlands, however, did use badges with christograms on their 431 — ‘ridge helmets’ on the front of the crest, as shown on the famous AD 315 silver medallion of Constantine (Demandt/Engemann 2007, 206, Fig. 15; Grüßinger et al. 2007, I.3.120). Three or four of these have turned up as stray inds in recent years: in the Betuwe (ancient Batavia), the area of the Netherlands between the Rhine and Waal river, but no further details are available (Driel-Murray 2000); ‘somewhere in the Meuse valley’ (Dutch Limburg: Driel-Murray 2000, Prins 2000; Altringer et al. 2006, 46-7 with colour photograph; Demandt/Engemann 2007, 235 ig. 6; Grüßinger et al. 2007, I.13.121); Wijchen, to the immediate SW of Nijmegen, and Echteld, some 30 km W of Nijmegen; this one might be identical with the irst one. ‘Taken together with a silver agrafe with Chi-rho symbol found on the skull of a female burial in Nijmegen (Steures 2004, 7, ig. 3) these badges seem to suggest widespread Christian inluence in the second half of the fourth century in the Lower Rhine area.’ (Driel-Murray 2005) However, the Roman army went away, and as far as we know now, Christianity went with it. Apart from southernmost Maastricht, Christianity had to wait to take root in the Netherlands until the advent of the missionaries of the Netherlands, Willibrord (AD 690-739) and Boniface (c.675755), from the British Isles. As Van Es (1968, 7) put it: ‘So broadly speaking there are two periods in which the population of the southern part of our country was brought under Christian inluence: in the fourth century and then, so to say all over again, in the seventh and the beginning of the eight century.’ (Transl. D.St.) The research question for the years to come should therefore not be whether there was a Christian community in Late Roman Nijmegen and what its size or nature was. Had there been such a community, it would have let traces in the 1323 Late Roman graves published in the present study. The question should be: how can it be that Late Roman Nijmegen, so close to christianized Tongeren, Maastricht and the Rhineland, re- mained both staunchly Roman and staunchly pagan? (Tongeren: Creemers 2007; Maastricht: Boppert 1986; Rhineland: Altringer et al. 2006, Ristow 2006) Excursus 3: Recent remarks on Christianity in the northwest This is the place to discuss recent remarks on the role of Christianity in the Late Roman Empire (Willems et al. 2005, 196-8; Willems/van Enckevort 2009, 135-6): ‘That change in orientation was accompanied by an almost total disappearance of grave goods. These changes have been considered the result of a ‘Christian’ habit, though Van Es correctly notes that the lacks of grave goods need not by deinition indicate a religious (Christian) background but might be related to changes in the NW provinces by which religious customs would adapt to what was customary. The preferential orientation for burials was decreed by the Milan Edict of 313, ater which the W-E direction gradually, and from c.350 almost exclusively, became the Christian way. Whether this symbolism goes back to the earliest period of Christianity is rather doubtful, according to Van Es; in his view, this should be seen more as an efect of the central authority, is this case Constantine, who proclaimed Christian belief as the State religion’. These remarks were partly borrowed from Van Es (1968, 10), who implies that other authors think that Christianity had become the State religion ater the Edict of Milan. However, this passage is part of a ive-page-long argumentation by Van Es against automatic Christian interpretation of Late Roman W-E inhumations without grave goods. It should be stressed that the word translated here by ‘state religion’, staatsgodsdienst, means ‘oicially proclaimed religion in any empire that one should profess in order to be able to become a state oicial’ (Dutch dictionary Van Dale 2005, s.v.; transl. D.St.). The facts are the following. In AD 311, the prosecutor Galerius, out of imperial generosity (clem- 432 — entia) allowed the Christians, though he found them stupid (stultitia), the right to exercise their religion (Lactantius, De mortibus persecutorum 34,4). Constantine and Licinius renewed this permission in the rescript (answer of the emperor to a governor) known as Edict of Milan of AD 313. There is no oicial law text of the Edict of Milan, but we do have the Latin text in Lactantius De mortibus persecutorum 48,2-12 and the Greek translation of a slightly diferent redaction, as promulgated by Licinius in the east, in Eusebius’ Historia Ecclesiastica 10,5,2-14. There is nothing in this rather short leter (some 530 words of Latin) that refers to inhumation, nor, for that mater, to orientation. Moreover, it is clear that it lays down no more than tolerance for Christian and any other religion: ut daremus Christianis et omnibus liberam potestatem sequendi religionem quam quisque voluisset = ‘so that we might grant both to Christians and to all men freedom to follow whatever religion each one wished’. The two augusti retracted earlier rescripts against the Christians, demanded that former property of the Church be handed back immediately, unconditionally and free of charge, and ordered the governors of the eastern provinces to publish their rescript as an edict, so that everyone would be able to read it. With the Edict of Milan, Christianity became an oicially recognized religion not the state religion (cf. Van Es 1972, 202 = 1981, 261). No earlier than AD 380 Theodosius made Christianity a not the cult of the state: he apparently still permited pagan religion for both the elite and the rustic population, where it was deeply rooted (Cod. Theod. 16,1,2); only AD 392, he forbade the old Roman religion, so that Christianity became the established cult of the Roman Empire (Cod. Theod. 16,10,12). It will be clear that there is not a shred of evidence that the Edict of Milan or Constantine had anything to do with the orientation of graves in the far northwest, or that they proclaimed Christianity the state religion of the Roman Empire. The Nijmegen opposition is unique Comparison to the nearest two large Late Roman cemeteries, Maastricht and Krefeld-Gellep, shows the Nijmegen opposition of E-W and W-E graves to be unique. Maastricht knows only W-E graves, the lower stratum being with grave goods, the upper one without (Van Es 1968, 13). In Gellep, 360 out of 1258 inhumations were N-S, 444 W-E, and the rest had orientations somewhere in between. Pirling speciies: where it could be ascertained, 95 of the ‘N-S’ graves were actually S-N, and 65 were N-S; 134 of the ‘W-E’ graves were actually W-E, and 74 were E-W (Pirling/Siepen 2006, 13-5). As Fleur Kemmers already remarked on her Table 23 at the beginning of the present chapter, something very special was going on in Nijmegen. A new look at the orientations Now that it has been established that the preference for burial with the head to the west of the later Nijmegen graves has nothing to do with status, age, gender or Christianity, and that the Nijmegen opposition is unique, it is time for a completely new look on the opposition between the E-W and the W-E Nijmegen graves. Not the turning of the later graves toward the west is the problem. The sun rises in the east and therefore Roman and barbarian pagans and Christians all prayed (and Christians still pray) toward the east. Who lies with his head to the west is looking towards the east. It is therefore only natural that graves should be oriented, i.e. that the dead should be lying with the feet to the east and the head to the west. This is also shown by the Maastricht graves, which are all W-E, both in the deeper stratum with and the upper stratum without grave goods. The question, like the graves, should be turned the other way round: what brought the people who dug the generally earlier Nijmegen E-W graves to bury their beloved with their heads to the east, so that they ‘looked towards the west’? If a group does so collectively, there must be an ideological reason. Ater the argumentation at the beginning of this chapter, that there is no 433 — ‘gap of Nijmegen’ and that Ulpia Noviomagus, to the west of the Valkhof setlement, existed right up to AD 313, the following simple hypothesis will come as no surprise. The people buried in E-W graves are the irst generation of the Valkhof setlers and had grown up in Ulpia Noviomagus. There is one fact to support this hypothesis: the girl in the early (AD 317-8) and richest grave but one B 620, the sarcophagus of the Grutberg, was lying with her head almost due west, at 275°. She and her family did not come from Ulpia Noviomagus, as the distribution areas of the two most conspicuous artefacts in her grave show. Not counting Nijmegen itself, such sarcophagi are found from Bregenz to Cologne; and tambourine sticks, again not counting Nijmegen itself, are found from northern Italy up to Epraves and Samson in Belgium and Gellep in Germany. Not coming from Ulpia Noviomagus they had no reason for an E-W burial and followed the religious reason for W-E burial that was later to become the norm in the cemeteries of Late Roman Nijmegen. Who were they? Local people Anthropologically, they probably were of local origin. Culturally, they were completely Roman. And culture is what maters in the perception of one’s own identity and in archaeology. The contrast to their Germanic neighbours comes out best by two positive facts and a negative one. The negative fact is that boys’ graves cannot be recognized in the Nijmegen cemeteries. In culturally Germanic cemeteries nearby and of the same period, boys are positively marked by their atributes (Groot 1991; Böhme 1974, 164). The irst positive fact is their use of almost exclusively Roman potery and glass vessels, the footed bowls Gellep 273 and 274 being the only case of a mixed Roman-Germanic potery type (Typology plates, Figures 114 and 115). The May- en coarse potery, the Argonnes terra sigillata and the coated Trier beakers, so frequent in Nijmegen, are, with a few exceptions, absent from the area N and E of the Rhine (Erdrich 2003, 10). The second positive fact is their use of crossbow ibulae, which are frequent in the Roman areas south of the Rhine and the Danube, and almost absent from the Germanic areas to the north of those frontier rivers (Böhme 1974, 160; Swit 2000, passim). These were proudly worn in actual life (Demandt/Engemann 2007, Figs. on p. 77 and 95) and in iconography by Roman top oficials and other members of the elite (Buchem 1966). Nijmegen has many more crossbow ibulae than the iteen published in this study (Buchem 1966); these have not been included because their ind spots are unknown. Did they give themselves an ethnic name? We are not to know, because what we have in writing from fourth-century Nijmegen is limited to the one graito OLATENEBIBE on B stray 140. But we may have an educated guess. Nijmegen was a city with many names in Roman times, but all of them mention the Batavians: Batavodurum, Oppidum Batavorum, Ulpia Noviomagus Batavorum, and, from c.AD 150 onwards, Municipium Batavorum (Bogaers 1960-1; Steures 1995, 16-19; Derks in: Swinkels (ed.) 2004, 56). Nijmegen was the city of the Civitas Batavorum, which is mentioned only once, on the altar dedicated by Flavus, son of Vihirmas, summus magistratus civitatis Batavorum (= the highest magistate of the district of the Batavians; CIL XIII 8771; Byvanck 1935, 98-9, no 91; Derks in: Swinkels (ed.) 2004, 68). This altar is dated as early as the irst half of the irst century by Bogaers (1960-1, 268-71). The latest inscriptions in which Batavians igure date to the third century AD (Derks in: Swinkels (ed.) 2004, 56, 66-69). In literature, the name disappears ater it is mentioned by Cassius Dio, who lived AD 155-235 (55.24.7), but it makes a comeback at the beginning of the fourth century. The area between the rivers Rhine and Waal, now named Betuwe, is called Batavia AD 306 and AD 365 (Panegyrici Latini 7.4.2; 2.5.2). Batavian troops of the fourth 434 — century are mentioned many times by Ammianus Marcellinus, always as staunch allies of the Romans, though with varying success (summed up by Teitler in: Swinkels (ed.) 2004, 36-7). We have seen that the archaeological evidence suggests that the inhabitants of Nijmegen were staunchly Roman up to the latest graves published in the present study, i.e. up to AD 450. So we may surmise that they still called themselves Batavi, i.e. Batavians, as long as their cemeteries remained in use. As for the troops in the Valkhof setlement, we have no evidence about the name of their unit. Late Roman brick stamps known from near the Valkhof mention the Numerus Ursariensium, which is known from Qualburg and elsewhere along the Rhine in the mid-third century, and Legio XXII, which stayed from AD 92/3 in Mainz (Noviomagus 1979, 65, Figs. 72-3; Bogaers/Rüger 1974, 96; Bechert/Willems 1995, 63-4, 106). But we do have a clue where they came from: the irst generation being buried in E-W graves both in the more civilian cemetery B and in the more military cemetery OO, these troops had been recruited in Ulpia Noviomagus itself. Newcomers In the times of Augustus, the tribe of the Batavians was formed by the Romans by importing nobility from the Chati around present-day Frankfurt and giving them the local population as clientela (Roymans 1998). Constantine, it is suggested, did the same: he brought in a civil administrator from Cologne. The civil administrator was, it is suggested, the father of the 7-year-old upper class girl in the sarcophagus of the Grutberg. In view of the rude sarcophagi of the middle status zone of cemetery B, he probably came from Cologne, which has them, rather than from Trier, which doesn’t. He may, in the old-fashioned Roman way, have paid himself for the rebuilding of Nijmegen in the shape of the Valkhof fortress. It is far less probable that he was a burden on the small community of the type Lactantius complains about (de mortibus persecutorum 7,4): in terms of money, the Nijmegen people of the period immediately before the cemeteries had nothing but their emergency money. The third and most probable possibility is that Constantine or the state paid for this stronghold against the Franks because of the security of the Empire. The supposed civil administrator was not the only one from Cologne. An eccentric lady who worshipped Sabazios also came from there. Apart from persons, there was an inluence from Cologne: we saw that the percentage of niches in the Nijmegen cemeteries reminds of that in Cologne rather than that of Gellep. There were a few other newcomers. The only recognizable Christian in Nijmegen, the lady in B 690 with her agrafe with christogram from the south of Gaul or even from Hispania, probably married into the well-of family that had its burial plot on the hillock to the northwest of the Mariënburg chapel. Some Sarmatians with their glitering barbarian sheet ibulae mingled with the population. What was it like to live in Late Roman Nijmegen? Originally, there must have been an enormous relief when the Valkhof fortress was built AD 313. Its cemeteries relect prosperity up to the disaster year AD 355. But already before that year, there must have been some anxiety. The Nijmegen pagans were confronted with emperors who had suddenly switched from pagan to Christian religion. In coin period 4, AD 330-341, they were looded by imperial propaganda with contradictory messages. The legend Urbs Roma told them that Rome remained the only Urbs of the empire, but the Constantinopolis coins made it clear that the real capital had moved away to the east, far out of reach of westerly Nijmegen. Reading the eminent historian of the fourth century, Ammianus Marcellinus, helps us to imagine the anxieties of the times for the inhabitants of Nijmegen. At the same time, we can understand that the pagan cousin of Constantine, Julian (331363, emperor 361-3), must have been their hero. The surviving books 14-31 cover the years AD 353378. 435 — By AD 355, Franks, of all people, were numerous and inluential in the palace (15,5,11). In the same year, Cologne was destroyed (15,8,19). But Julian recovered Cologne from the Franks a year later (16,3,1-3). AD 357-8, Franks plundered Germania Secunda, which comprised Cologne, Tongeren and Nijmegen (17,2,1-2; cf. 15,7). But again, Julian came and rescued the population by starving the Franks into surrender (17,2,3-4). Salian Franks and Chamavi surrendered to him (17,8,3-5). AD 358, he restored three Roman fortresses on the Meuse/ Maas (17,9,1). AD 357-9, many disasters shook neighbouring Belgica Secunda (17,3,6). AD 359, Julian restored town walls along the Rhine and built granaries for corn supplies from Britannia (18,2,3) and recovered the area along the Rhine from Arnhem near Nijmegen to Bingen near Mainz (18,2,4). AD 360, he atacked the Athuarian Franks, crossing the Rhine near Tricensima, the Late Roman fortress of Roman Xanten, some 60 kilometers from Nijmegen (20,10). In these hard times, the Nijmegen population must have taken heart from the visits of other top oicials. AD 365, Theodosius the Elder was active between the rivers Rhine and Waal in the area of Batavia, which was worn out by infantry batles (Panegyrici Latini 2.5.2). Emperor Valentinian’s visit to Nijmegen on 20 September 368 must have made them very proud (Seeck 1919, 234; Stolte 1966). And, if nothing of Valentinian’s fortiications along the Rhine has been found yet in Nijmegen, it has been found as near by as in Cuijk, some 12 km away (see Chapter 12, section Pendants). The anxiety of the Nijmegen population about life comes out in the three cases we have of religion (apart from the proud priestess in grave B 465 and the generally pagan ritual of depositing grave goods) where a major concern was a good personal aterlife: the Dionysiac mask B 197.6 and the Sabazios atributes in grave B 298, both signs of mystery cults; and the Christian lady in B 690 must have hoped for a place in heaven (Steures 2004a; see also the relevant sections in Chapter 12 of the present study). The Nijmegen population saw the upheaval caused by the sack of Cologne and Trier AD 355 and the sudden stop of the import from there of their most popular potery, the ine dark coloured ware. They saw the breach of the Roman frontier by Germanic hordes near Mainz in AD 406 (Lamarcq/Rogge 1996, 110). But they remained staunchly Roman, as appears from grave B 61, with its axe and un-Roman grave ritual of giving a Roman belt set (Lamarcq/Rogge 1996, 110), dated AD 440-450. And they remained staunchly pagan, witness the priestess of the pole idol in the other latest dated Roman grave in this study, B 465. 436 — Coin list 1: per grave in the order of the grave numbers (70 graves, 15 stray, 210 coins) Coins play an important role in dating the graves and the interpretation of the two cemeteries. As there are many diferent aspects, they are discussed in diferent chapters of this study. In chapter 3, Explanatory notes to the ind catalogue, in the section titled First and second-century coins and ibulae: intrusions? (p. 000-000), it is argued that these were put into the graves intentionally; in the section titled Assessing the dates of the graves in real years (p. 000-000), the way the coin periods are used for fairly exact dates is discussed. In chapter 12, Typology of dress accessories, the two eighth-century sceatas are discussed in the section on Beads because of the association with eighth-century beads in grave B 661 (p. 000). Coin periods and mints are discussed in chapter 14, Interpretation, in the section titled Time - The beginning: AD 313. The coin identiications were originally made by H. Enno van Gelder (1876-1960) for cemetery B and by Jeanete Raap (under supervision of prof. J.S. Boersma) for cemetery OO. In 2011, R.W. Reijnen revised and updated the identiications; coins missing then (see column remarks) keep their original identiications. Ater the inal chapter, there are three coin lists: Coin list 1: per grave in the order of the grave numbers; Coin list 2: per grave in the order of their latest coins; Coin list 3: per coin ater its latest minting date.
