In a pre-wartime at excavation of a burial of Kaup bei Wiskiauten (nowadays – the southern suburb
of the territory Zelenogradsk, the Kaliningrad Region of Russia) the find of a fragment of a silver symmetric
fibula with images of women’s masks was made. Process of formation of a form and decor such the brooches
can be recreated in the following positions:
1. From the middle of the VI century in Italy and in Dalmatia the symmetric fibula imitating the
top plates of fasteners of department of Bügelfibeln start being made. From VII to the X centuries lamellar
equilateral fibula develop in the German regions of Europe.
2.In the IX century in Scandinavia there are local versions the symmetric brooches. Unlike modest on
the twiddle the symmetric brooches Germans of continental Europe, northern masters supply already early
forms of the products with a magnificent twiddle. Moreover, already on the brooches of the Aargård IIIA:1
type there are pair images of a human mask.
3. On the brooches of the Aargård IIIF:1 type pair heads of women with a flowing hair are already
accurately looked through. Later these figures degrade and lose the realistic signs. On the latest fibula female
figures disappear, being the replaced three-dimensional heads of dogs.
