Roman belt buckle plates are often associated with military belts.  The design evolved over time to feature elaborate designs and were used as status symbols and military equipment. This event replaces the previously advertised Make a Roman coin session.  

Crafty Romans activities are part of our Ways to Play programme of free and low-cost family-friendly activities.
