Das frühe Eisengerät
Résumé
Beschreibung und Auswertung der spätkeltischen und frührömischen Eisengeräten aus dem königlichen germanischen Grab von Musov (Tschechische Republik), datiert II c. n. Chr.
In the IInd c. AD, when a German king was buried in what was going to be a village called Musov (Czech Republic), early iron objects dating back to the later part of the Iron Age were included within the grave goods : a large firedog with impressive bull-heads on the top, an elaborate pair of ironsmith tweezers, a large tripod for the suspension of a cauldron on a fireplace, a meat-hook and a gril. Were the objects family relics preserved during 3 centuries ? Did the king find them when unearthing a Late Celtic grave on his territory ? If these questions cannot be answered, the study of these objects concerns two different topics : first, their function and symbolic use in the Late Celtic societies of the Ist c. BC (with a special attention to banquet and ironsmith symbol); but also the importance of memory, and the link with earlier Celtic kingdoms, by the Germans of the IInd c. AD.
