The Roman knee fibula replica measures 3.8 x 2 cm.
The knee fibula was widespread throughout the Roman Empire from the 2nd to the 4th century AD. They were usually between 3 and 4 cm in size and were often found in the forts on the Danube and Rhine, which is where the term soldier's brooch comes from.
These brooches were found in military graves throughout the Roman Empire, particularly in the region of Pannonia (today Hungary), where this type of Roman fibula probably originated in the 2nd century AD.
In contrast to the onion-button fibulae of the same period, which were worn as a symbol of rank in the Roman army and civil service, the knee fibula was worn by ordinary soldiers. However, they were also worn by women and children.
The majority of these Roman brooches were made of bronze and some were also tin-plated. Like other types of Roman fibulae, the knee brooch was used to fasten items of clothing such as cloaks or the toga.
